*Best/worst away ground for atmosphere?

[Kenney_The_Blue]

Sorry if somebody has already done it but what do you think is the best away ground for atmosphere?

And also what is the worst?

 

[aarond]

Arsenal is pretty poor for atmosphere

 

[Braggster]

Best: Upton Park

Worst: Emirates

From personal experience and I've not been to them all, so it's hardly definitive.

[Feed-The-Goat]

worst is boro for me, shite ground and even worse fans!!

 

[Lester]

Best: the old grounds

Worst: the new grounds

No exceptions to this!

Worst is that Brighton 'ground', upton park have ten home fans singing, not very impressive.

Worst in the Prem is Old Trafford, the best recently for a team getting beat was at Villa Park.

Anfield has more daytrippers than the swamp and that took some typing,i'll tell you.

 

[Lester]

Best: the old grounds

Worst: the new grounds

No exceptions to this!

Just compare the atmosphere at these grounds:
Dell / St Marys
Ayresome Park / Riverside
Highbury / Emirites
Maine Road / Eastlands (!!!)

Is it any surprise that the old Fratton Park still provides an atmosphere, or grounds like Cardiff? Stadium designers of the future who want to create an atmopshere will do well to encorporate wood, large poles holding up the man stands, no round edges and large fences bisecting the crowd with barbed wire on top.
