the racecourse (cru) - Always play Quins in south wales



the jungle (cas) Great fans, Pubs in the town excellent.9/10



headingly (leeds) Never made it but will one day.

odsal (bradford) - This stadium is closer to me than Headingley stadium so its pretty easy to get to. The burgers are quite nice and its pretty easy to sneak into the seated area. Never had a problem with parking and the atmosphere is one of the best. 10/10 (still Odslum though, But I was raised in broken Britain so places like Odslum is home from home for me!)

the jungle (cas) - I’ve been to this stadium twice and I must say its not too bad. Castleford Hospitality is one of the best in Yorkshire, so don’t let the homophobic chant headlines fool you. That was just a minority of people. Always a good atmosphere in here and easy to park as far as I can tell. 8/10

galpharm (hudds) - Seen the best rugby league matches of my life here. The views are pretty impressive but the parking is a nightmare. Still this is one of the best rugby league stadiums that we have and it deserves a 9/10!

kc stadium (hull fc) - Apart from the chav corner I like this stadium. It takes ages to get to and I’m from Leeds. Hence why I’m reluctant to go out of Yorkshire!

Same with Huddersfield 9/10

new craven park (hull kr) - A proper stadium and the best atmosphere in rugby league in the UK. The burger vans do pretty nice meals. The only let down is the location of the stadium - 8/10

halliwell jones (wire) - Expensive and over the border - 6/10

dw stadium (wigan) - The last tolerable stadium standing over the border. I’m willing to drop my anti Lancashire stance and give this 9/10

the willows (salford) - Absolutely terrible burgers and the stands are more like half built pyramids, the steps are that steep in the away end. Rubble outside makes this stadium a miss in the future - 2/10

belle vue (wakey) - I love Wakefield but I hate the stadium - 1/10

Rugby League doesn’t exist outside super league in the UK icon_wink.gif

Only joking but it is a shame that the national league is largely ignored on here. As a rugby league community we should be ashamed!

Baffling. A massive car park 5 minutes walk from the ground max that is never full, even when the ground sells out. icon_confused.gif

Listen, no grounds perfect so for me it's the experience that counts.

Best experience watching Salford away from the Willows was Halliwell Jones (v Wolves) in 2006 and then again in 2009 (v Crusaders). Infact, the Wolves game was the best atmosphere I've encountered, plus we won. Went to see Hull FC v St's once with a mate who is Hull fan and ginger, so I became a Hull fan for the day. We started drinking around 11am, was wasted by kick off, but that was the best RL experience I've had away from the Willows. Think we ended up in a right state in some night club. Day after was painful, but it wasn't the first time I got in a mess on a night out in Hull

So, if you didn't guess it's the HJ and KC for me. I still miss the old Central Park, and I'll miss the Willows even more. Call it a dump, but it has got masses of character.

stade gilbert brutus (catalans) - Got hammered on expensive French beer, got rained on (again) and witnessed an absolute nail biter. Brilliant. 9/10




the racecourse (cru) - Only been to Bridgend and the beer was awesome.



the jungle (cas) - I have yet to bear witness...

new craven park (hull kr) -Nope

Odsal (Bradford) - The only ground in Yorkshire where the pitch is at sea level.

Stade Gilbert Brutus (Catalans) - Used to love it, although the view didn't help from the away end with the fencing. But what are they doing to it now? At one end there's a swimming pool and they look like they're doing the same at the other.

Racecourse (Cru) - Bit small in the concourse, otherwise it suits its purpose.

The Jungle (Cas) - One of my favourite away grounds in Yorkshire. Theres something about it that reminds me of Wilderspool. Bit of nostalgia whenever I go there, and I love the name of the pubs down Wheldon Road.

Headingly (Leeds) - Love it. Good atmosphere, even at the away end without a roof when its raining.

Galpharm (Hudds) - No atmosphere, too big for the club. A real let down, otherwise good facilities.

KC Stadium (Hull FC) - Can't complain. Good facilities, nice surroundings and a bookies in the concourse.

New Craven Park (Hull KR) - Poor away end, whichever end your at. At one you can't see and at the other it feels the temporary stand is about to give way. Hardly any decent toilet facilities and food.

The Stoop (Quins) - Other than overpriced food, its a nice friendly stadium.

DW Stadium (Wigan) - My favourite away ground. Always an atmosphere whenever we go. Good facilities etc, although the stand is a bit steep the further up you get.

The Willows (Salford) - Warm beer, and it feels like your climbing Mount Everest up the terracing.

Hearwell Stadium (Wakey) - Can't wait to see the back of it.
