100% agree,even more so as a Brighton fan,as the basis of the design of the Amex was based on Huddersfield,and having visted Huddersfield,I would say it is one of my favourite grounds that I have visted.Weird though there were no southern grounds in it,Sutton would be a contender,although to be fair,I am one that always enjoys visting any ground and always thinks that any quirky bits etc add to the character.

"Little" Huddersfield's ground was designed by HOK |(now Populous) a USA based multi national architectural practice with it's European Headquarters in London. It was built by Sir Alfred McAlpine and the basic arch design was later adopted by many clubs - and was also the inspiration for the Wembley Arch, often credited to Norman Foster, and as said below, also the Sydney Olympics. It was the first of it's type and won an RIBA award when first built. Bolton used the same Architects and it was built by Birse Construction.

I agree the inclusion of Huddersfield's stadium is bizarre. The worst stadiums are these ones that don't have a stand at all either behind the goals or along the side of the pitch.
Agreed. Think Accy Stanley got lucky not to feature
Hi
100% agree,even more so as a Brighton fan,as the basis of the design of the Amex was based on Huddersfield,and having visted Huddersfield,I would say it is one of my favourite grounds that I have visted.Weird though there were no southern grounds in it,Sutton would be a contender,although to be fair,I am one that always enjoys visting any ground and always thinks that any quirky bits etc add to the character.
Stadiums with running tracks says hi.
@@FLAMEGRILL55as a town fan it’s certainly unique but you can see the progression from ours to boltons then yours. There are some major design flours with.our ground and it needs a lot of work on it but I wouldn’t have it as one of the ugliest tbf
Your sense of humour is top tier. Where some football youtubers humour feels forced, you're just naturally funny! Great video again!
Thank you that’s really really kind
You're a terrific presenter, keep going and you'll make it big. :-)
@@garryfortismere thank you Garry, I first read this as horrific and my heart sunk! So kind
It helps too that she is a top bird lol 😂
That I'm not a fish had me on the floor!
That facial reaction from the step at England to Wales is pure Peepshow, love it
It's cool how easy it is to enter to Wales from England
Her whole shtick is Peepshow-esque!
"I'm not a fish." Amazing. You just don't get this quality of neurodiverse entertainment on any other footie channel. Thank you so much!
Hahaha this made me giggle. Thank you very much
Neurodiverse entertainment and i am absolutly here for it
hey you know what they say, plenty of fish in the sea
I've always thought Huddersfield was a rather nice-looking stadium with some decent pubs in the town. As for Grimsby I've been a few times and had a great time with some memorable pies at halftime.
That's what i call, having your Priorities straight. 👍
Now I want to visit Grimsby! The phrase “memorable pies” quite literally made my mouth water!
I bloody love a memorable pie
Some great pubs in Huddersfield.
@@toolittletoolate3917I now also want to check out Grimsby!
"Cleethorpes is the Barcelona of England", said with a straight face...you are a Legend! But at the same time, yes, in some way that which is ugliest, is often also captivating, and in its own way really attractive. Marvellous!
🤣🤣🤣thank you, Brian. Very true!
England will never have a Barcelona. Greetings from Spain.
The John Smith's stadium won the prestigious RIBA building of the year when opened, voted for by all the top British architects. As far as I'm aware it's the only stadium to win the award. Bolton, Brighton and many other stadiums around the world have since used its blueprint. TalkShite by name, TalkShite by nature.
Huddersfield, Brighton
@beany147 Little Huddersfield? How many league titles have Bolton got? The original thrice champions, only matched, never beaten. ⭐️⭐️⭐️
I believe the culmination of the series of these stadiums was for the Sydney Olympics.
"Little" Huddersfield's ground was designed by HOK |(now Populous) a USA based multi national architectural practice with it's European Headquarters in London. It was built by Sir Alfred McAlpine and the basic arch design was later adopted by many clubs - and was also the inspiration for the Wembley Arch, often credited to Norman Foster, and as said below, also the Sydney Olympics. It was the first of it's type and won an RIBA award when first built. Bolton used the same Architects and it was built by Birse Construction.
Wigan's ground appears to be a scaled-down version based on this design,too.
Had one of the friendliest away trips ever in Grimsby. A local pub welcomed away fans and even put on free food for us. OK, you had to duck down to see the crossbar at the far side of the pitch due to the low roof, but I've been on a lot worse ground.
We had that. We wandered into a pub and there was a party in the back room, they invited us in to help eat all the food.
Huddersfield is a strange choice. Been there a few times as an away fan. Quite unique for a modern stadium. More interesting than Leicester, Southampton, hull etc.
I find the "ugly" stadiums more charming. They're most likely out of date, and have a unique feel. Even if they can't stay up and get relegated after this season, seeing Luton Town in the Premier League is fun. Just seeing all of the Prem. mainstays playing at the Kenny is cool for a year.
One of the best away days I ever had was at Grimsby back in 92/93 when Newcastle won the 1st Division (Championship), fantastic day out, and night match. I've been to Milan, Barcelona, Kiev, Turin, all the big English stadiums but that night was special, and def one of my favs.
The genuine despair in the delivery of "I'm not a fish!" is incredible
The villa bought all the terraced houses to extend the now called Doug Ellis stand previously known as the Witton lane. However they made sure people were re homed and the street was cleaned up as well as sports facilities for the locals kids to use. Some of the terrace house still exist and I believe everyone was happy with how Aston Villa went about this redevelopment. They do plough a lot of money into the area they exist on.
Proper football club.
Same at Anfield. The Sir Kenny stand used to be the Kremlin Road stand. All the houses in Kremlin Road were bought up by the club, demolished and the Centenary stand was built. Now the Sir Kenny Dalglish stand.
@@Petersworld77 There was a lot of bad feeling when that happened from locals. They felt that LFC went about it in the wrong way. Some people are still very bitter and angry!
villa park the ugliest stadium in football
I love them all me. All those football grounds in such a tiny country, it’s amazing.
There are much worse Stadiums than these. All of them are charming in their own way
Agreed
Great stuff Nieve. Love the recent European football videos.
Often a favourite pub quiz question, the only team to play all their home matches away is Grimsby as the stadium is in the neighbouring Cleethorpes. Technically a completely different town, but nothing obvious to separate them as they blend into each other.
Tho I believe the Chester ground is still technically in Cheshire & not quite in Flintshire, if we're going on technicalities they also play all home games Away as they're in another country
The Manchester United ground is in the Borough of Trafford, and the Nottingham Forest ground is in the Borough of Rushcliffe. Ironically, the Notts County ground is in Nottingham!
Unless the person hosting the pub quiz is an idiot, that is not a pub quiz question.
There are many clubs that don't play in the town they represent. Chelsea play in Fulham for example 👍
@@JFHM95 Exactly, Queens Park Rangers are in White City, West Ham are in Stratford, Arsenal play in Holloway, we could go on. Brentford is in Hounslow, that’s a joke by the way, in spite of the song the Gtech is in Brentford.
Hi, just come across your KZhead channel. Enjoyed the video……..as someone who has done 83 of the 92 , I believe there is no such thing as a bad stadium…..Ugly, sure - but every town and ground is unique and carries a lot of sentimentality to many and I enjoy visiting them all
Well put. And fair play on 83!
what 9 have you got to do ?
@@paultilly It changes, due to the ‘newer’ clubs that come into the league….. The BIG ones I need to do are Valley Parade and Portman Road…..plus Fleetwood, Barrow, Morecambe, Burton, Grimsby, Sutton, Cambridge
@@stuntpeggnieveBournemouth isn’t ugly lmao it’s just small
@@michaelhardy7867You're some way ahead of me. I've done about 67 out of 92. My chief hit list is the 25 that I haven't been to that were in the Football League when I started in the 80s. They are Bournemouth,Brentford,Bury,Cambridge,Carlisle*,Chester,Chesterfield,Colchester,Darlington,Exeter,Gillingham,Grimsby,Halifax,Hartlepool,Hereford,Lincoln,Mansfield,Newport,Northampton,Rochdale,Shrewsbury**,Stockport,Torquay,Wrexham and York. * I've stopped off to take a walk round the outside of this ground and peer inside (love the blue multi-span roof stand) but not been into it. ** I visited it out of curiosity one day and they showed me round! Very kind of them. Helped that I pulled up in their car park in a Jag.
I enjoyed your reaction to entering Wales far more than I probably should have done. Really enjoy your presentations.
I'm surprised how easy it is to enter everywhere else there would be a big post with guards and a giant welcome to Wales sign
You're the Philomena Cunk of football commentary videos. Incredibly dry and funny! Thank you for the videos
What do you think about Huddersfield stadium?
Was just watching Welcome to Wrexham and was a nice surprise to see you on there sharing some wisdom. From a humble Bolton Wanderers KZheadr to sharing the screen with Ryan Reynolds. Pretty cool.
used opera for many years, glad to see that it's still on the market ⭕
using it the whole time
Great video. Ive watched 4 or 5 of your vids today and thoroughly enjoy your style and dry humour. And some great music too, Rush, Purple, Skynyrd and Blue Oyster Cult all popped up❤
I love the patience you have to make these videos for everyone!
Again a nice video Nieve. I love how you put the lower league teams in the spotlight
I love your videos! Really get a feel for the uk football culture and how impactful clubs are in their communities.
The irony of Talksport calling something 'ugly'
Always love these kinds of videos, you’ve got a great sense of humour and analysis and always loving the classic songs you play during the video 😂
Thank you Tom, especially love that you love the tunes 😂
Luton Town has to be one of the worst stadiums. The best fish and chips I've ever had was at Grimsby!
Not anymore COYH
Thank you im from grimsby
Went away to Grimsby , for a evening game years ago , enjoyed it ..and yeah the fish and chips, absoloute top . Fish was huge 😅
Love your vids , very well presented , and even better ..you laughed at the spuds 😂 not winning anything for a long time . Keep up the great work 😊😊😊
It's like having a personal friend! 😂 Bless you Nieve ❤ Quality as always
I saw REM at the Huddersfield stadium before it was even finished for football. They still had the stand at the other goal end to build. It was ideal for a concert since you can just put your stage where the empty space is. At that time it was a refreshing pleasant stadium and a great venue on a baking hot day.
Was that the concert where The Beautiful South and a couple of other bands supported??
I was there too! Massive traffic jams on the way in too!
As someone from Grimsby, find it surprising but not surprising that Blundell Park is on this list as theres other stadiums out there. But its nice to see its getting recognition from someone as yourself
The are a lot worse places.
Yeah like Salford City..Ugly and pointless! Famous people with too much money I think?
Really enjoyed this Nieve! Thank you! 👏🏻
Cheers, Brett! 👊
love it how you could hear Frank Rothwell (OAFC chairman) in the background and you had no idea!
Huddersfield's stadium is peak 90s design nothing wrong with it.
Keep up the amazing work ❤
Omg, this is why you were in Chester a few weeks back! It's not an ugly stadium, just a bit basic. Glad you liked it!
You're actually randomly funny love it, keep up the content really enjoyed this video!
im not a fish . had me rolling 🤣🤣
😂😂
⚽️🏟️Every stadium in English Football is Beautiful🇬🇧
Have u not seen st andrews
What a very novel and interesting twist on the well documented topic of football grounds, nice one, well done.
Love the vids. Nice to see that you appreciate a bit of Stockport's own Blossoms boys.
Hey! Saw you in an episode of 'Welcome to Wrexham.' That's pretty cool!
Love your content. Hope you are staying well :)
@stuntpegg - I couldn't agree more... your vides highlighting things like the ground and random walls clearly indicate your expertise is this regard
As always, great content - and also liked the Riga FC shirt
7000 attendance in fifth tier seems great. For another video idea, you could go to other teams at lower levels with high attendance. That might be fun to see the highest attendance teams in the national league, for example.
Yeah that’s a really good idea. Will get on this
7000 in fifth tier would be a rarity.
There was 5k in national league north recently
Just come to any Chesterfield home game . All Town Aren’t We.
@@michaelford3391 Not at Boundary Park on a weekend it isn't
Your sense of humour is brilliant. I found your channel when you featured my local team St. Mirren. Hopefully you can make it north of the border again soon!
I’d love to! Always a top trip north of the border, where the humour is as good as it gets. Thanks very much!
I like how you try soooo hard to keep your Dale biases to one side....I think I heard you mention pooping in Oldham Athletic's letterbox 😂😂 Another great video! Does this mean we'll get a 5 prettiest stadiums video? Might get you to Home Park this way 😊
I get grimsby is not the best place to visit but Blundell park is amazing I am born and raised in Grimsby I have been to Blundell park many times and in my opinion we have the best fans in league two and like I said we might not be the best team in the world but grimsby town is trying up the mariners
You should try Priestfield! Gillingham ground is terrible! That for me is the worst stadium I've watched them in and I must me a jinx as every time I go the Gills lose 🤣
I think you confuse "ugly" with being full of character, where Blundell Park is concerned. Proper club, proper fans. It may not be to the taste of plastic fans of Premier League clubs, but if you want a taste of footballing history I'd recommend a visit to Cleethorpes especially under the floodlights. Great video and thanks for bringing attention to our club. UTM! 😊
As an American, I don't see ugly I see history and character. At least your football isn't played in baseball stadiums where the seating makes no sense and with a baseball diamond in the middle of the pitch.
Great view from the Findus Stand Grimsby.
Hi, just come across your KZhead channel. Enjoyed the video and i saw you have a shirt from my club Riga fc. I didnt know anyone would know about us as far out as england thank you for the support
"Barcelona of England" made me crack up. Well done, Nieve.
Haha! Thank you Chris
This would be an interesting topic to cover overseas as well. I watched a Serie A game in Fiorentina’s stadium (Stadio Artemio FranchI) and loved the game and the view of the Tuscan hills but the stadium isn’t easy on the eyes.
Apparently it's being overhauled now with a new design. Such a travesty for Florence to have an ugly stadium though.
Omg your channel has blown up. Congrats! Love the channel. Cmon City 🩵🫶🤟🏼🇺🇸
You make amazing football content nieve your dedication to travel for something you love and passionate about inspires me, football is amazing
Been to Huddersfield before with Saints, thought it was a cracking little ground.
Great video, wonderful humour. Nothing wrong with any of these stadiums.
This is the best football channel in the universe.
Just found this Channel, brilliant work!
As a southerner, this TalkSport list seems to have a northern bias. Huddersfield and Chester should be nowhere near the top of their list. Perhaps they have not been to Luton! As for lowest ground in the counry, Canvey Island FC is actually below sea level.
Have you ever thought about contacting the clubs to get a view inside of the stadiums? I think a lot of clubs would actually let you inside and show you around, im sure they would actually be fond of being able to negate some of these negative claims PS: if you ever come to austria, be sure to hit me up, i can help you out
I think she has a couple times, gotten sorta access to the fields etc.
One of my favorite away grounds, brilliant atmosphere from the home fans. Admittedly it had just been taken over, by the crazy dude, it was a great away day, home fans going mental, best home crowd ive seen as a Bromley fan.
Who?
Your content is top-tier journalism truthfully 👏
And then Talk Sport went for their 568th gambling ad that day
got baited by putting villa in the thumbnail 😭
Was ready to kick off 😅
I clicked straight on it.
Got me worried too 😂😂
Great crowd and atmosphere at Blundell Park. I've been plenty of times and never seen them lose - which is incredible really. Seen a few draws, mind. There's also a blue plaque on a terraced house on the main road nearby, saying that the guy who wrote "Thriller" (and a couple of other tracks off the same album) was born there. #unexpected
Surely Bristol Rovers ground should be on here? Totally bizarre looking ground.
I live in the Netherlands and even though Grimsby is a depressing town and the stadium might be bad. Grimsby Town FC has a soft spot in my heart
Stunt Pegg une fois de plus merci pour cette très belle visite guidée du stade on en apprend et on en découvre toujours ce n’est que du bonheur force courage et santé surtout

the oldham athletic part was total chaos😂 great video as always, and yeah pretty bizarre for Huddersfield to be featured in this, as a foreigner i always thought it was cool
😂 it’s whenever my Mum gets involved, it turns to chaos. Thank you Andrea 🙌🏼
Agree with your thoughts on Oldham, but as you say we’ve had bigger issues. I think the care and improvement will come over the next few years and we will rocket up (down?) this ranking
What would you do to it though that would improve it in any meaningful way? Rotting wooden doors and window frames that look like an ancient potting shed as well as ancient bricks that wouldn’t look out of place in the 1930’s. It needs knocking down by the looks of it.
It’s hard because I’m pretty sure there are some restrictions into the main stand due to age and the close proximity to the houses facing
@@user-cy5lz2mi5j You can buy terraced housing and knock it down. That’s what Blackburn had to do for their new stadium when they were building the new one to win the Premier League in. The house owners got decent money and the new stadium was built, although I do accept it would be hard for smaller clubs to do that.
He's spent an absolute fortune on the inside of the grounds the least of his problems is some wooden slats and paint.
I went to Bolton's stadium once, when Frank Lampard scored a hat trick there in 2011. It wasn't the most interesting stadium but it was easy to get to from the train station.
Boltons ground is unique,it's a stunning ground.
Wasn't it called The Reebok a few years ago?
Being from Brazil, those all look pretty Nice, specially from the inside (those pitches look better than Maracanã)
The random gentleman looking in at 4:50 😂
Great content as ever Nieve...Love your humour and your natural ability on camera...Keep up the great content and looking forward to your next video...👏🏻⚽️👏🏻⚽️
Thank you so much!
She’s not gonna shag you fella
The Memorial Ground (Bristol Rovers) is more ugly than all of these.
Huddersfield’s ground is gorgeous! The author must be a supporter of their rivals or something. I hope he reserved a proper amount of chaff for that.
Great content! ❤
"You could put yours in the microwave though" 😂
Didn't Huddersfield's stadium win a big architectural award back in the 1990's when it was built?
Miss Pegg I really enjoyed your sense of humour in that video very entertaining
Oh I’ve spent many a cold Saturday at Blundell Park lol. Loved it!
As a Huddersfield fan I'm quite upset about this.
Leeds Road miles better..
Quite agree can’t knock Grimsby ground about got to keep the culture..I was lucky enough to visit loads of grounds in 80s (well over 100 all with Pompey) before all seater you would of loved those Fellows park Walsall comes to mind it seemed to be all different bits with a 60s style subbuteo fence
The choice of music clips is top tier :)
Anyone remember when that band Orphan Boy wrote the song "Black and White" for Grimsby Town... with the bloke dancing his pants off in the vid? "Those lovers sittin' on a bench at Blundell park..." Top tune to be fair.
If I had my way, I'd swap Huddersfield and Gillingham. If Kent is the garden of England, Gillingham's Priestfield is the outside toilet!
This comment has made me want to visit Priestfield immediately 🤣
It's only the temporary Brian Moore stand that's crap, the rest of it is alright
Ugly = Charm for me I'd love to visit them.
UTA Arad's stadium in Romania is a mini Huddersfield one (13000 seats) , but for us in Romania it's fine, given that we've started to have five star Uefa stadiums (plural) only since around 2010. Though compared to the other 11 five star stadiums it might be the worst.
Always love your Vids/ Funny as ever (Poo in the post box he he he he 😂🤣😂
I love watching your videos..
Charming, English, and Beautiful. And the stadiums too!
Grimsby may have the lowest pitch of any League team, but Canvey Island's pitch is actually below sea level
Another quality video, cheers gorgeous ;)
