Baseball Ground - don't know why but I really liked that ground

Victoria Ground Stoke, didn't like that at all

Plough Lane ( has that gone?)

The original Wembley

The shitty Dell

The Den - Cold Blow Lane

Others I'm sure..

Anyone have a list of grounds that have been developed and the clubs moved on?

Plough lane has flats built on it now, been there and goldstone/the dell/highbury/original wembley/maine rd/ninian pk/vetch field/gay meadow/eastville/filbert st/ sandy lane(tooting and mitcham), apart from the goldstone, all these were visited in the eighties with chelsea, something tells me some of our current ' fans ' wont have even heard of some of these places !!

I was trying to think of this the other day. Of the top of my head:

Goldstone and Wembley obviously,
Victoria Ground - Stoke
Roker Park - Sunerland
Ayresome Park - Middlesborough
Baseball Ground - Derby
Blundell(?) Park - Bolton
The Old Show Ground - Scunthorpe
The Dell - Southampton
Feethams (I think it was) - Darlington
The Den - Millwall
Elm Park - Reading
Manor Ground - Oxford
Leeds Road - (Huddersfield
Maine Road - Man City
Highbury - Arsenal
Selhurst Park (Sadly not as Palace's old ground but for Wimbledon)
Eastville - Bristol Rovers
Fellows Park (I think it was) - Walsall
Ninian Park - Cardiff
Vetch Field - Swansea
Highfield Road - Coventry
Belle Vue - Doncaster
EDIT - Gay Meadow - Shrewsbury.
EDIT - Boothferry Park - Hull
EDIT - Millmoor - Rotherham.
???? - Chester's old ground. Can't remember what the hell it was called.
Ditto Chesterfield's ground - assuming they've moved out now.

Can't remember any others - might have to come back and edit this if I think of any!

ANOTHER EDIT: And barring Southmpton, Reading and Scunthorpe I haven't been to ANY of those clubs new grounds!

Sealand Road! Thanks. Also thanks to Menoza and Surrey Jim for Saltergate. I was racking my brains trying to remember what the hell it was called. And yeah I thought Blundell Park might be wrong. but I knew it was something like that. Isn't Carlisle's ground called something similar as well?
