Belle Vue not mentioned yet. Absolute belter of an away game, train was delayed so missed first half hour, decrepit old ground, ex-Albion goal machine Supermarket McCammon scored the winner, pretty certain we didn't have a shot. Lovely day out.

Not sure Northamptons County Ground counts, for two reasons, it is still there and still used for Cricket, and it was effall like a stadium.

Goldstone Ground;
Eastville;
Gay Meadow.

Does Haig Avenue still exist? - it hasn't been a League ground for about 40 years.

Always enjoyed Upton Park, the last match at the Den, the yellow tape dividing supporters at Plough Lane and telling people that I've been to both Oxford and Cambridge.

The old Wembley, Burnden Park, Elm Park. The others are all still there albeit greatly changed. Elm Park was rubbish and Burnden, although large and historic, was really showing its age by the mid 90s.

Manor Ground, yet another one I’d forgotten. Pretty sure we won there with a Gotsmanov goal but it was a long long time ago!

Always found it quite an atmospheric ground. Think our record there was however pretty poor, including unless my memory has gone haywire, Fozzie playing for them....

Rest in peace, Underhill. A ground with real character and that slope! The chairman's done the dirty on them and sold the ground for a soulless Hive stadium seven miles away, virtually halving turnouts.

Some good visits there in the late nineties - usually a 1-0 win. The Nigerian illegal immigrant. I can't even begin to spell his name!
