Football stadiums in nice locations

FAIL

Take my word for it, they were lovely, and I could see them

The Goldstone, whilst walking towards it through Hove Park, or any direction come to that.
(Choke, sniff.)

Yeovil's is kind of located in a school playing field type setting with a housing estate nearby.

Not that I like that stadium or the marquee style bar but the area isn't too bad to be honest.

Prenton Park, I seem to recall, is in an area not entirely unlike Beirut circa 1985.

I believe it's called Birkenhead.

gay meadow used to be a tidy little place - lots of pubs on the high street, stagger over the bridge and into the stadium

shame they replaced it with the MONSTROSITY that is the pro star stadium

 

[Scotty Mac]

the view from the top tier of the main stand at torontos bmo field looking towards the city is pretty bloody good as well - especially at night when everything is lit up

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

[shoreham moonraker]

Been doing some digging. This looks rather picturesque. FC Luzerne in Switzerland. All it needs is cows with bells round their necks.

Does this one work

is that soccer specific? it looks f***ing BRILLIANT

the mls is BRILLIANT for scenic stadiums. vancouver are hoping to build there franchises permanent home on the SEAFRONT, with the mountains to the north and downtown vancouver to the south

Capacity is 70000ish; nice place to spend summer afternoons (beer and standing are both allowed, another good thing about MLS).

It's designed to be a football stadium, but they play American football there too. Vancouver's plans look good. Salt Lake are surrounded by mountains too I think, can't find any good pics though.

It was built for the Seattle Seahawks (NFL), and half of it's closed for MLS games. Personally I think the stand that goes up a bit like a triangle looks weird.

you can see a bit of MOUNTAIN in this one

Riazor. A Coruna city centre, and next to a beach.
