If you're in London and wanting to go round football grounds, that shithole would be doing well to be in anyone's top 10. If the only criteria is 'available', then yeah, fair enough.
Maybe it'll break the top 8 grounds in London when the new megastand built with that ringfenced cash is open in summer 2036.

The one moderately interesting thing about that cesspit for stadium anoraks like me is that it has one of the last few Archibald Leitch stands still in use, although the great Simon Inglis cuttingly described it as “one of Leitch’s more modest efforts”.
So presumably the old changing rooms under the stand itself were at some point deemed no longer fit for purpose - fair enough - but then they replace them with those god awful temporary builders huts in the corner? They don’t look fit for purpose either: little better than Withdean. And then they build that big end stand - with all those ugly turds sitting in it - which has tons of room underneath it for proper facilities.
I know this may come as something as a shock but…they’re not very good at planning stuff are they? Boy does it show.
