Worst ground: My team's rivals' grounds
Dont understand why people are putting The Shwoground sin thier worst 5. Its in better shape than ever and the surface is much better to play on now than ealier in the season.
Coleman for Ireland
Im going by athmosphere generation mainly and a little nostalgia (i prob spelt that wrong). I dont care about pretty new seats (they just get in the way)
Top 5
United Park (covered terreces)
Orial Park (covered terrece and great history)
Tolka (riverside stand and again great history)
Terryland (Old stand very good sound generation)
St Colemans Park (history and behind the goal is good enough despite new seats)
Bottom 5
Tallaght (too open)
Athlones ground (same)
Turners cross (no terrece anymore)
RSC (souless ground, too far back from pitch and only seated)
Brandywell (too far back from the pitch)
west cork district league
west cork commandos
Best
Turners X
Terryland
Dalymount

Belfield Bowl
United Park
Oriel
Galway United - Connacht Champions 2008
I'm surprised that the Brandywell is in so many top fives. Personally I think it's ****e.
DCFC
The away terracing at Oriel is a bit of an embarrassment and I think something should be done about that, though we do allow a certain number of away fans into the stand. The Derry lads would be grand in the Shed, after all, they were made welcome in the Lilywhite Lounge before their last game in Oriel (as were Pat's, Sligo & Bray fans -- and I think even the Galway fan came in for a pint).
Terryland is a grand ground for away supporters, but their portable toilets are shocking. Not only can you not use them but you have to hold your breath till your 20 yards past them. The exact same goes for Sligo, but here stand is s**t.
Even uglier than this?!
Funny how the Galway fans have the Showgrounds in their bottom 5.
No bias there at all?
I like tolkapark bar the toilets.
