In the last 2 years, I have been at:
The Showgrounds (obviously, since I'm a Rovers fan)
Tolka Park
Flancare Park
United Park
Belfield Bowl
St. Coleman's Park
Richmond Park
Morton Stadium
Station Road
Funnily enough, I haven't managed to get to Dalymount yet, even though it's probably the closest stadium to where I live.
Been to all of them bar Wexford Youths.
What's Sporting Fingal like ????????Quote:

The away stand is a mess, and the 'event co-ordinator' in Morton stadium had us moved from the left hand section of the stand to the centre of the stand, for reasons unknown to us (the whole stand was just for Limerick fans). Plus there seemed to be schooligans milling in at random from a hill behind one of the goals, didn't look like they were paying customers so it must be easy to jump in. Oh and I walked up to the away gate at 7.10 and they hadn't opened it or got tickets down yet, so the steward told me to go down to the home gate to get in, so I wlaked down there and was told I couldn't get in there as I wasn't a Fingal fan and had to go back up to the away gate. I got up there and had to wait for another 10 minutes before they opened the gate. Absolutely worst away ground to go toQuote:

Turners Cross is the best I've seen, Dalymount is my favourite location (I pass it twice a day and like how it's a proper community fixture), and St Coleman's is my favourite trip (the pub is fantastic and the atmosphere is always good when we play there)
Wexford Youths is the only one and hopefully I wont see it next season.
Why would you want your club to fold though? It's not that bad in Wexford I hear :)Quote:

AFAIK the only ground I've missed (used regularly) since the early 70's was seeing Monaghan in Belgium Park.

Turners Cross
Tolka
Dalymount
Richmond Park

Hmm..Haven't been to Wexford, Limerick (any of their residences), Cobh, Dundalk or the Belfield Bowl. I might get to some of those before the season is out.
Whoops- I knew there was another, haven't been to the Belfield Bowl yet either.
