If old Wembley is included then can Hampden be listed.
was also going to put Meadowbank Stadium down as saw Meadowbank Thistle there, but see Edinburgh City used it recently and it’s being redeveloped
 


I've been to many listed by other posters but how about this one much closer to home...Redheugh Park, Gateshead, their home when they were a league club and for many years afterwards?
My family moved to Lobley Hill in the late 60s and they played there then...I went to the odd game. A rather decrepit oval ground but charming in its way...a bit of lost north east football architecture.

What's that Cork City one mention mate. I saw Sunderland play Cork at Turners Cross that balmy night with Keane and Quinny there. Just assumed that had been where they had always played.

As for my own list, only a dozen of those mentioned previously including RP.

Bishoptown Stadium. They still use it for training. Cork City actually moved to Bishoptown from Turners Cross in 1993 but moved back to Turners Cross in 1995.

Me anarl.
I was seeing a lass from Cork at the time, so it was a great pre season fixture for me 😊
The best place on that tour, was Galway, as it's my favourite Irish city.
The bars of Quay street were packed with Sunland fans, as well as race goers, because the Galway racing festival was on, while we were there.

Edinburgh City moved out, and the football part is going to be houses, the whole stadium is gone now, an indoor sports centre is emerging on part of it.
