Trivia question

[essbee]

I was talking to a friend who knows bugger all about football
and they asked how many grounds in England are there
where you can see water (sea, estuary, river, lake or pond)
without going to extremes of standing on the roof or floodlights
etc. In other words, from a seated or standing position in the
stand.

We got:

Shrewsbury
Fulham
Notts County
Forest

Any others? There must be others.

 

[The Large One]

Canvey Island.

Jesus. *shudder*

 

[spongy]

Grimsby?

 

[Carrot Cruncher]

Shrewsbury is no longer near to the Severn. St Mary's is right by the River Ichen.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Pompey
Hull

 

[The Wookiee]

Blackpool ?

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

im pretty sure you can see the tyne from the highest point of st james' park

 

[ditchy]

Sunderland

 

[The Large One]

Curious to wonder why the answer of Canvey Island should induce a thumbs down.

Canvey Island itself should do, I suppose.

 

[atfc village]

Sincil Bank Lincoln.

 

[Everest]

Pompey

A river of piss doesn't count

 

[Ernest]

Grimsby

 

[mikeyjh]

Newcastle has to be a possibility

 

[Arthur]

My sister fell in a ruddy great puddle outside Peterborough one year! Does that count?

Stockport has a reservoir one side and the Mersey the other. Dunno if you can see either from within the ground though?

Can't believe no one has mentioned Middlesborough yet.....the clue is in the name!

 

[Albion_Dave]

Fulham

 

[Seagulls Downunder]

Huddersfield- has a river next to it, as does Sheff Wed
Blackburn- Leeds Liverpool Canal

 

[Whitechapel]

Blackpool ?

Went there a couple of years back and I swear the ground was a bloody long way from the sea. Might have been because I was hanging out my arse to the point that every step was torturous and I'd have happily found a quiet corner to die in, mind.

 

[pishhead]

Hartlepool?

 

[surrey jim]

Gloucester City FC

 

[The Birdman]

Berwick
