  • I visited Camelon Juniors FC just outside of Falkirk and I discovered that a local fan had built a stand in his back garden to see into the football stadium. You don't get this at Ibrox or Celtic Park!

    If that little stand isn’t the epitome of smaller league and junior tier games, I’m not sure what would be. Still, seeing such a supportive crew of fans shows how much the local team means to fans.
    Great work as always.

    When Camelon won the Junior Cup in 94-95 against Whitburn (my local team), I think the score was 2-0 to Camelon and it was played at Fir Park. Every game I went to support Whitburn, they won. I never made it to the final and they lost. I accept full responsibility for that. Sorry Whitburn 🙁

    Eden Park Auckland, which is New Zealand’s national/ biggest stadium. Back in the 80’s a man built a stand in his back garden, it seated roughly 50 people, and ironically was nicknamed the "scotsman stand".
    When Eden park was redeveloped for the 2011 rugby World Cup finals, this stands view was taken away.
    But, if you look closely, there is a small structure inside the ground, in much the same spot, which is clearly a small tribute to the original out of ground stand.

    In Germany we don't necessarily have stands on private grounds but something like houses right next to the smaller stadiums is absolutely normal. one example is the TSV Havelse in the northern germany 4th league - the regionalliga nord. There you can watch games from behind the goalside from the comfort of your own apartment if you wish xD

    I went to watch the Boston Red Sox a few years back.. on the far side, the people in the flats have built their own viewing galleries… they charge thousands for people to sit in their front room. The Red Sox tried to build up the far stand to get more people in but they lost the court case as it would have stopped people in these apartments from watching the games.

    By the way, my record of matches attended in a single day is four as well, but being fully honest, it’s 3.5 :-). Macao, a decade ago, I watched back-to-back second division matches at the same stadium, but had to leave at halftime of the second match, so as to catch a bus and reach the main stadium on time for back-to-back top division matches. So, yeah, 3.5, in something over eight hours.
