What is your favourite away ground
regarding stewarding fans atmosphere and all round friendliness
I know I will probably get lynched for this but my own personal fave is Exeter City friendliest fans I have ever come across

Don't know really apart from Orient and Chelsea the only away grounds I have been to are Arsenal, Spurs and Dagenham Redbridge. I have to say the hot dogs at Dagenham are really nice.

if its for the ground then you've got to say Arsenal or Leeds if its for the friendliness of fans then i would say Bournemouth or Bradford stewards are idiots everywhere you go these days and unfriendliest fans would have to be Leeds.

Arsenal? That ground was horrid i thought. Zero atmosphere due to structural issues (+ dreadful fans). Thought it was really soulless. Elland Road is good tho i agree.

Swansea and Coventry were fantastic stadiums. Wolves and Leeds were great atmospheres. Fans were friendly at Wolves and stewards at Coventry were good. But there is something about the old grounds like Southend and Luton that i love.

But there is something about the old grounds like Southend and Luton that i love. Firstly i thought the Wolves fans were not friendly and found walking around the ground (showing all my colours) slightly intimidating, a couple of the poeple me and dad were talking to also suggested that i hid my colours when walking back to the station. Secondly, southend is probably one of the worst stadiums i have ever been to the seats are so flat that it is almost impossible to see the game over the person's head infront of you.

I went to Arsenal for the FA Cup replay
I thought the stadium was fantastic
The Arsenal crowd where poor and the stewards a bit over zealous
And the food prices just bordered on the ridiculous
Oh and Bentdner was a total a++wipe that night
It is still to date the only Premiership ground I have been to
I do go and watch Brighton every now and then courtesy of a good friend of mine
The Amex Stadium looks amazing
All 4 Stands sing more or less all if the game
Stewards are really nice there
Fans I find very friendly
Food prices very reasonable

I got a bit of stick leaving the ground but nothing you wouldn't get at any ground (other than Brisbane Road ). Did anyone catch a beating from Wovles fans then?

Scunthorpe staff last year were super friendly.
And they had two-pint pint glasses.
Win-win. Shame we didn't turn up.

The wolves fans I spoke to outside the ground were fine I can only speak as I find. And my point about old grounds like Southend have much more character than these new soulless grounds.

I Don't really have a favourite away ground, I thought the Newcastle fans were really friendly when we played up there a few years back in the league cup.

And my point about old grounds like Southend have much more character than these new soulless grounds. one of our mates asked for directions back to the train station after the game and got sent in the wrong direction by a wolves fan. and thats correct they do have more character than these new grounds but at least you can actually see the game in these new grounds as thats what you travel away to do, watch the game..

To be fair will, I have seen Orient fans doing the same to some poor Carlisle Utd fan with an inflatable sheep under his arm - they sent him walking to Leytonstone which wasn't very nice but kind of funny. I hope he made the match.

I like Ipswich's ground just for the amount of space that it is in.Everton has to be my favourite,a grand old stadium with history poring out of it's brickwork and the fans I met were knowledgable about the O's as well as other teams.The Orient fans that day were magnificent and when Paul Gascoigne came over to applaud us it didn't feel like a 4-0 pasting. I hated Middlesborough in the cup as I just happened to get beat up there!!!!!!
