| Barrow is a complete shed too. I also find it hard to believe Boundary Park hosted PL football.

| Tim 2, I was just thinking that and I started the thread ! What was that thing about "People in glass houses" lol.
Still MSM was better than I thought it would be.
Alfreton Town is a smashing little ground nowadays. Not far off all seater, must be getting on for 4000 capacity. I wish we had a ground like that !

| Derwent Park at Workington is really showing its age. It is clear to see that no maintainance of any sort has been carried out for at least a decade, having said that i do like it!

| DV is in good condition but the distance from the action isn't conducive towards it being a "good ground"

Always summat cosy about the tiny bar in the main stand though
To be fair, it was a very good view in the scoreboard end in the days that they opened it for rugby games. Must be even colder there now though (if that was possible) with one of the touchline stands demolished.

| I went there to watch Wednesday this season and it was absolutely freezing, is the scoreboard end the end to the right as you look out of the main stand? That's where we were stood, I've only been once to watch Eagles and was in the main stand.

That's right, yes. The scoreboard end (the away end for OAFC games) was always allocated for Leigh fans up until our final visit to Boundary Park when everyone was put in the main stand instead.

| Quote tim2="tim2"This thread is a bit rich considering we've just played at Mount St Mary's.
Although to be fair the buildings and the grounds were in excellent condition, which is more than could be said for many of the now derelict or demolished old grounds.

Answered your own point perfectly there, pal.

| Oh, i also forgot to mention Whitehaven's Recreation ground. Very open, with basic facillities. Owlerton was one of my favourites. You didn't need too many in to make a good noise. I remember playing Oldham there, when there was over 3500 in. It was heaving. But the best bit was when a young 21 yr old Sheffield lass decided to take off her long coat & dressed only in Thigh length boots, invaded the pitch

| I didn't mind Hilton Park. A traditional RL ground, with a decent atmosphere. Partizan fans  and a good view. Obviously not as good as the LSV but I wouldn't mind having a ground like Hilton park.

A lot of us Leigh fans wanted to have it moved to somewhere on the LSV site but it was condemned due to being full of asbestos

| I think eventually every away team was a "visitor" as the rolls stuck. But lets not laugh too much as the electronic scoreboard at the Don Valley does n't work at all!

| See SIV about that. It's all about the cost that no-one wants to pay. Besides, we play at Bramall Lane now

| The next home game against Barrow is at the Don Valley and on TV. The next game at Bramall Lane is late August. The Eagles have played at least 4 games at the Don Valley and 1 at Mount St Mary's this season so its difficult to convince anyone that the Eagles home ground is Bramall Lane.
