Thread: Away Grounds you miss

    Re: Away Grounds you miss

    Hereford's Edgar Street - it's still there, but we just don't go there any more.
    Newport's Someone Park - I used to pop down to watch them, back in their Ashurst glory days.

    What a name for a ground....Someone Park, unfortunately with County’s meagre crowds in those days, No-one Park may have been more appropriate.

    The Dell, Southampton. My eldest lad's first away game league cup mid 90's. Tiny ground but great atmosphere in the Matt Le Tissier days...
    Somerton Park. The famous game in the early 80's the year us and Newport were promotion rivals. God knows how we lost, Jeff Hemmerman had 2 goals disallowed and I thought we'd blown our chances but County missed out and I don't think they've been that close to the now Championship since.
    Maine Road. FA Cup 1981. Huge impressive place. Around the time of The Moss Side riots and I remember several burnt out buildings on the way to the ground.

    To cut a long story short all of them.

    I prefer the old grounds without exception. Including ours.

    Away at Luton last season [Kennilworth Road]. Entrance between a row of houses, a tiny bar on left as you walk in. If you described to someone sat up 60ft in the air and 100ft from the pitch at Tottenham or Arsenal or Newcastle, they genuinely wouldn't have a clue what you were on about.

    Quite like going to wolves too, we shared that huge terrace behind the goal with them for a bit when two sides of the ground were shut, 10,000 of them 20ft away....
    The Midlands trips were always a good laugh

    There in a couple of hours

    I think the game you talking about was a draw and I'm sure Dec 1999.

    It’s not an away ground but Ninian obviously missed.. Vetch, Somerton and Eastville all enjoyable trips

    For obvious reasons The Den I definitely do not miss!!!
