Interesting Fact, when the landowner who owned Anfield, applied to set up a football team, after Everton had left due to high rent, he wanted them to be called Everton Athletic Football Club. This was denied for being too similar to Everton, so they settled with Liverpool.
I live in brentford and the stadium 🏟 is amazing. I'm a chelsea fan tho and I don't think you will have an easy time. Get ready for a relagation battle
Only 16 years ago Brentford supporters rattled buckets and did sponsored walks to raise £700k (two weeks pay for Kevin De Bruyne) to keep the administrators from the door. That’s why they part own the club. Their owner is a Brentford fan, not an Arab Sheik, Russian oligarch and they’re not part of a US sports franchise. That’s why their rise to the greatest league in the world is so impressive and deserved. N.B. I’m biased and was at Wembley 😁🐝
Hi! Dean. I can vouch for The new stadium atmosphere visited twice as a Brentford fan this season. Cannot wait to welcome the crem de la crem of English football.
Old Trafford is infested with rats.. 2 legged ones in the owners box and 4 legged ones all over the rest of the ground , 😢 it used to be a cracking stadium

Coventry's old stadium (Highfield Road) was the first all-seater stadium in England. Now we are back playing in the city of Coventry after 2 years of being exiled in Birmingham
The AMEX stadium ( home of Brighton and Hove Albion ) has been designed with seat capacity increase in mind. The pitch can be lowered by a few metres to allow up to 10,000 new seats. Source: the people who built it
Stamford Bridge was built in 1905 by the Mears family and they thought that Fulham FC would move in but they rejected the move to redevelop Craven Cottage. As a result the Mears family Formed Chelsea FC so that the ground wouldn't become a pointless undertaking
It's so beautiful and weird if we think about it this way. A club that was created just so that a stadium doesn't become a pointless undertaking, won the Champions League for the 2nd time so recently.
The old Main Stand and terraces were built up from 1905 but Stamford Bridge as a sporting arena was already there with two pavilion type stands at the southern end. It was the home of the London Athletic Club from 1877 to 1933. Harold Abrahams was one of its famous Olympians. Ironically, the Mears brothers (who were also involved with London A.C.) and their building firm had previously done work at Craven Cottage. The Mears planned to convert Stamford Bridge into a multi-purpose stadium and hoped to attract FA Cup Finals away from the old Crystal Palace ground. Of course having a tenant club was also beneficial, hence they first approached Fulham FC.
@@chelseacharger After WW1 ended Stamford Bridge did indeed have most of the FA cup finals played there. The ground at Crystal Palace was primitive with two stands that stood next to each other and the rest of the ground was just grass banking. The athletics stadium now occupies the same location
Everton’s Goodison Park and Liverpool’s Anfield is separated by Stanley Park. Hockey fans are familiar with the name, because it’s the same Stanley the Stanley Cup is named after.
Anyone that had the misfortune to visit Everton for a night away game in the 80s will tell you it was named after the famous knife supplier of the same name!!!
I think Villa Park is everyone's benchmark for a good football stadium in England. It's very pretty under the lights with the brickwork behind them, the façade on the outside is of an iconic, traditional English stadium standard, and it's beautiful on the inside too. My favourite has to be either the Spurs stadium or the AMEX stadium though.
The San Mames his a great ground the only problem with su of these grounds look the same like fish bowls I am a wolves fan we got a nice ground it's going to be done to how 55ooo but they are building a team first than the ground no good having a 55000 and not have a team to play there
And of course not to forget Aston Villa has historic standing in english football the founder of the football league William Mcgregor was an Aston villa fan
You made an interesting point about the Crystal Palace ground. Its potential local catchment area is huge, probably as big as Spurs and Arsenal combined. If the team was ever succesful I would think a 60000 capacity ground would be full most weeks.
St James Park, Newcastle United will always be an iconic stadium in the English game. Similar to Goodison Park in many ways with a great atmosphere and always attracts big crowds. I agree with you, there's something very pleasant about Carrow Road stadium in Norwich. As in Goldilocks and the 3 bears - It's just right for them.

@@kidusabebe6634 and I know it looks bad but it can recover don't forget back in WW2 it suffered catastrophic damage from Luftwaffe bombing but from the ashes we rebuilt and would go on to become one of the most famous football clubs on the planet
Fact: Anfield is getting an expansion which has been given the green light to go ahead into the planning stage which will expand it by 7000 making it a stadium that can hold 61,000 people. It could take up to 2 years until building is complete.
Anfield❣️ Thank god they never relocated. Hopefully in the next 10 years they’ll find a way to extend the Kop though it’s difficult; it deserves to be a towering wall but (half unfortunately) the extension will be on Anfield Road instead... which will still be great but look asymmetrical🤷🏼♀️
I once had the opportunity to talk to one of the engineers behind the Amex and he was saying that originally the roof wasn't supposed to have those big supports on them but a last minute design change to the main stand meant they had to add them in for structural reasons. He didn't seem particularly pleased with the design change but they still look to have created an awesome looking stadium and he certainly sounded proud of it. Apparently the design has a lot of space built into it to allow relatively cheap expansions of the stands should they want the extra capacity in the future.
Elland Road actually has 39,892 seats now as we have managed to upgrade it a bit, a long with that, we are looking to expand it to a capacity ranging between 50,000 and 55,000🙌
This was a great video for many reasons. You've done a great job and I hope you get an absolute ton of followers from it! I know you've got one from me.
That South stand in Spurs' stadium is very intimidating and daunting. I should know I'm a Wolves fan. Molineaux still rules! Thank you for another entertaining/informative piece. Now- SHUSH! You shush! Gentlemen's sausage...
That's cool! Wrexham afc has a quiet area as well and I go to Wrexham's match's and I sit in the quiet area! I also support Everton but I don't think they have a quiet zone! Nice seeing Brentford having one!
The Peacock is a brilliant boozer, and it's great to see the Mighty Whites back where they belong and as a Villa fan, living in Yorkshire. I'd like to thank Bielsa for helping us get promoted the previous season too.
Shame Brentford moved from Griffin Park as it's one I haven't visited and, famously, it had a pub on all four corners of the stadium. The new one looks a bit lopsided to me and I'm surprised they were able to get away with having it built so close to a railway track. Favourite away grounds now are Molineux, Goodison Park (wooden seats!) and Villa Park. Selhurst Park is one of my least favourite. I'm West Ham and your summary about our stadium is pretty much spot on!
Ha-ha! Well said, about Old Trafford. It is a famous and of course iconic old stadium but still a fantastic ground. Anfield stadium has yet another upgrade on the horizon, with the Anfield road stand due to be upgraded and increase the overall capacity to 61,000 at Liverpool's ground. The Etihad is just a great stadia ideal for Manchester City.

Villa park was built on an ornamental pond in the grounds of Aston Manor which is a Jacobean mansion who's owner was Sir Thomas Holte which is where the Holte end gets its name from
The main stand at Selhurst park is 98 years old, no redevelopments. That's why they have the pillars. The Arthur wait is getting old with no redevelopments. If I'm right, the Arthur wait got it's roof in around 1940.

For stadium architecture history in the UK know the name: Archibald Leitch. The Glaswegian is rightly said to be the greatest of them all designing iconic stands at Ibrox, Villa Park, Craven Cottage and Goodison Park to name a few.
I'm a Southampton fan and have also been to the King Power. Definitely similar. Big statement though I think if Southamptons owner Markus Liebherr was still alive Southampton could've had similar success to Leicester

Provided a deal with Sainsbury’s is done for land needed, Selhurst Park’s Main Stand will be expanded and the outside of it will have a design evocative of the Paxton Crystal Palace. There is a video on RUclips showing how it will look.
Rotherham United’s ground, New York Stadium, isn’t named after the Big Apple (as many people think), it’s named after the Rotherham district of New York that actually pre-dates the City in the States. Coincidently, the foundry site that the stadium sits on manufactured the famous red fire hydrants in NYC. Finally you can still see the abandoned Millmoor ground from the new stadium. The old ground was Rotherham County’s home from 1908-25 and Rotherham Utd’s from 1925-2008. The club vacated due to some... very complicated financial issues and had to play at the Don Valley Stadium in Sheffield for Four years. Don Valley has also fallen into the history books and is now the Olympic Legacy Park, operated by Sheff Hallam University.
Seriously, do "many people" really think the stadium is actually named after NYC? I think not. Why would they think that? Most people aren't that thick. What connection would a smallish south Yorkshire town have to NYC? Doesn't make any sense.
@@zargonthemagnificent330 if you read down my comment I mention the connection. Unfortunately most people are that thick and see New York and immediately think it’s named after the city.
My club, Bolton Wanderers FC was the first English club to suffer disaster in the ground yet never get remembered. Plus we have the 11th highest ever attendance record. Then we were the only club to have a supermarket built in the ground leaving half terrace and half supermarket brick wall behind the goal. And now we play at a stadium who's won loads of awards for the design of it but as well it's not even in bolton itself and is closer to Wigan town center than bolton's.
there was a time when Wigan Warriors could have taken up tenancy in Boltons ground. If the agreement to play in the JJB-DW hadnt been worked out buy the council
The 1946 disaster is probably rarely mentioned now because Burnden Park is long gone. There is a memorial plaque at the store which is now on the site.
“They’re no rich” oh good god! 🤣 Brentford’s stadium is stunning and proof that a small ground doesn’t have to be a boring identikit ground like...um... my home team have (Coventry) Speaking of the Ricoh (now known as the Coventry Building Society Arena...trips off the tongue), fun fact... since moving in only 16 years ago, Cov have spent nearly 1/4 of that time not playing there, due to rent arguments with the owners.
Love your stadium uploads. You failed to mention something that in the Championship video in your description of the mighty and glorious Luton Town. They are the greatest club with the bestest stadium. PS: In this Glory Hunter Premier League upload video moving pictures thing...The Emirates (Arsenal) is called the "Library" because of their old stadium aIso being comparitively quiet. That stadium was called "Highbury". Henceforth forthwith the "Library" nickname. Typical Glory Hunter plastic fans.
Goodison Park has long been a staple in the English premier League. Great atmosphere and a lot of history but Everton have already started the ball rolling on their new 45,000 all seated Stadium down at Bramley-Moor Docks. Planning permission is already granted.
I really like this spin through England's top grounds, but you missed out Sunderland? Your humorous little jokes add colour without distracting from the video. England's top division has some really marvellous stadiums and looking through this nice reminder of a idiosyncratic mix of the old and new it is clear gone are the day's when the football was five bob and a programme one shilling. As for my favourite it has to be Turf Moor Burnley, English tradition at it's best!

I'm a Southampton fan and have also been to the King Power. Definitely similar. Big statement though I think if Southamptons owner Markus Liebherr was still alive Southampton could've had similar success to Leicester
Been to the Emirates four times and it's very good!
You've been to the Emirates 4 times and survived?
@@ericbennison7483 one was for Show Racism the Red Card awards, the X-Factor auditions, the 2013 Emirates Cup and recently, in 2016 Arsenal v Southampton in the League Cup.
I will comeback again.

The design of AMEX Stadium was made to mimic the hills of the sussex downs behind it.
Anfield❣️ Hopefully in the next 10 years they’ll find a way to extend the Kop. It deserves to be a towering wall but (half unfortunately) the extension will be on Anfield Road instead, which will still be great but look asymmetrical🤷🏼♀️
Yep can't every see us moving from anfield
Getting on the 2021/22 hype train early
Love your videos and commentary. What is the name of that music that you use in this and other videos?
New Moon - Bad Snacks
Thank you. It is a cool piece of music!
A cool video idea could be Brazil 2014 World cup stadiums
Provided a deal with Sainsbury’s is done for land needed, Selhurst Park’s Main Stand will be expanded and the outside of it will have a design evocative of the Paxton Crystal Palace. There is a video on RUclips showing how it will look.
Leicsters stadium will look amazing with the glass
We must have more world class stadiums than anyone.
*USA and it's not even close
@@RealShaktimaan I am talking about football.
i think it’s either england or germany
Can’t wait for the Anfield Road Stand to be redeveloped 🚩 🚩 🚩
I've been to every one of these stadiums following Watford, quite a few of them mutiple times.
Felt I had to mention that.
Rotherham United’s ground, New York Stadium, isn’t named after the Big Apple (as many people think), it’s named after the Rotherham district of New York that actually pre-dates the City in the States.
Coincidently, the foundry site that the stadium sits on manufactured the famous red fire hydrants in NYC.
Finally you can still see the abandoned Millmoor ground from the new stadium. The old ground was Rotherham County’s home from 1908-25 and Rotherham Utd’s from 1925-2008. The club vacated due to some... very complicated financial issues and had to play at the Don Valley Stadium in Sheffield for Four years. Don Valley has also fallen into the history books and is now the Olympic Legacy Park, operated by Sheff Hallam University.
Seriously, do "many people" really think the stadium is actually named after NYC? I think not. Why would they think that? Most people aren't that thick. What connection would a smallish south Yorkshire town have to NYC? Doesn't make any sense.
@@zargonthemagnificent330 if you read down my comment I mention the connection.
Unfortunately most people are that thick and see New York and immediately think it’s named after the city.
@@zargonthemagnificent330 because let's be honest most people who hear new york think oh yea that city in America
My club, Bolton Wanderers FC was the first English club to suffer disaster in the ground yet never get remembered. Plus we have the 11th highest ever attendance record. Then we were the only club to have a supermarket built in the ground leaving half terrace and half supermarket brick wall behind the goal. And now we play at a stadium who's won loads of awards for the design of it but as well it's not even in bolton itself and is closer to Wigan town center than bolton's.
there was a time when Wigan Warriors could have taken up tenancy in Boltons ground. If the agreement to play in the JJB-DW hadnt been worked out buy the council
The 1946 disaster is probably rarely mentioned now because Burnden Park is long gone. There is a memorial plaque at the store which is now on the site.
Used to love the old Burnden Park, until they put that supermarket up behind the away end, same thing at Selhurst Park.
Most teams need to build a new stadium.
Ah it was Brighton in 2015

Speaking of greyhounds, Selhurst also doubles as Richmond AFC’s Dogtrack on Ted Lasso
Turf Moor tiene un gran parecido al estadio Saprissa en Costa Rica 🇨🇷
Imagine building that stadium for Spurs and then realising... "We just built that stadium... for Spurs"
Jealous? Oooh, just a teeny weeny bit 😘
“They’re no rich” oh good god! 🤣
Brentford’s stadium is stunning and proof that a small ground doesn’t have to be a boring identikit ground like...um... my home team have (Coventry)
Speaking of the Ricoh (now known as the Coventry Building Society Arena...trips off the tongue), fun fact... since moving in only 16 years ago, Cov have spent nearly 1/4 of that time not playing there, due to rent arguments with the owners.
didn't a little known rugby football club named 'wasps' move there 7 yrs ago? any info on their tenure?
@@karlosdeevs they did...they’re our landlords 😬
@@karlosdeevs "little known"? Mate, you don't need to flaunt your ignorance of other sports. Wasps are one of the biggest RU clubs in the country.
Love your stadium uploads. You failed to mention something that in the Championship video in your description of the mighty and glorious Luton Town. They are the greatest club with the bestest stadium.
PS: In this Glory Hunter Premier League upload video moving pictures thing...The Emirates (Arsenal) is called the "Library" because of their old stadium aIso being comparitively quiet. That stadium was called "Highbury". Henceforth forthwith the "Library" nickname. Typical Glory Hunter plastic fans.
Goodison Park has long been a staple in the English premier League.
Great atmosphere and a lot of history but Everton have already started the ball rolling on their new 45,000 all seated Stadium down at Bramley-Moor Docks. Planning permission is already granted.
53,000 it'll more or less be.
Please do one on the league of Ireland stadiums!
I really like this spin through England's top grounds, but you missed out Sunderland? Your humorous little jokes add colour without distracting from the video. England's top division has some really marvellous stadiums and looking through this nice reminder of a idiosyncratic mix of the old and new it is clear gone are the day's when the football was five bob and a programme one shilling. As for my favourite it has to be Turf Moor Burnley, English tradition at it's best!
You should do Frontier League Baseball Stadiums
