Oakwell - My first away game we won 3-1.

Leon Best scored a cracking freekick.

I like Pride Park one of the nice modern stadiums. Also KC is smart too. Old school has to be Nottingham Forest. All stadiums in England fail in comparison to the Nou Camp though- Magnificent.

I suppose it's where you've seen us win or witnessed a cracking atmosphere! Peterborough was good on both accounts. Barnsley, seen some cracking away wins there. First game of the season under dowie springs to mind,4-1 I think it was. Worst for me gotta be Villa park (relegated) and Sheffield united (cup quarter final).

Hillsborough was a cracking ground and brings back great memories of 2 visits in 87 , we were in the leppings lane end for the quarters and we were given the whole of the kop for the semis . This ground is similar to the Ricoh in the fact that it was big and needs a big crowd to generate atmosphere . Have been to a couple of league games and it was not the same

I actually quite like Watford, been there 3 or 4 times in the past few years, seen us hammered every time :facepalm: part from last season when Best scored in the last few minutes.

Luton was dreadful & the NHS in Milton Keynes when Wimbledon first moved to MK.

My one and only visit there was midweek to see a 0-0 draw on the longest cioach journey of my life! Was reasonably entertaining with Gary Bennett punching Speedo into the crowd but put me off a return or certainly by that mode of transport.

Best Ground: Parkhead

worst Ground: Fratton Park (I mean, I like a traditional ground but that just took the piss. There wasn't even standing room!)

I loved Craven Cottgae.

That surprises me, I haven't been but really want to go. They always fill the place and it sounds like a cracking atmosphere especially when they blast out the Delilah.

Watford is great for a day on the piss although the ground itself is shit.

Can't stand Pride Park and Brighton's Hockey Stadium was shite as well.

Elland Road is good and always seems to have a good atmosphere. Quite like St Andrews as well.

Ibrox was a fantastic ground as well, but the steps were like climbing a mountain ~ mind you that was in 1971. The Baseball ground was another dung heap, the only ground I've ever seen with its own swamp, and a fog.

Will forever be Hillsborough. The first time I saw their Kop at the quarter final before it started filling up I was speechless. Made HR look like a box room!

Always liked Upton Park just for the sense of achievement coming away unscathed.

Elland Road, sat in the home end on a few occasions too as an "honourary" Leeds fan to be fair the atmosphere they drum up especially on some of the European nights a few years ago was second to none.

My favourite old ground is Liverpool just for the walk on before the game, but had some great days out there too, but if I had to pick a new ground it would be the emirates when with a mate who had a spare ticket and it just fantastic

Luton... pies are heated with a nuclear bomb the scary alley way you go though
Southampton when they were at the Dell, weird little brick balcony areas
St James Park just magnificent
Pompey what a shit hole

Quite liked Ninian Park. Seen us win there a couple of times (McSheffers pen when we had ten men for about 80 minutes. Shearer saved pen and when a Tabb tap in put us top of the league in August as per.

Pretty indimidating but proper old school ground.

Watford's ok for a piss up

Bristol City is alright too
