have you see the Albion play at? What was your favourite?

The Manor Ground - Oxford
Elm Park - Reading
The Vetch Field - Swansea

Favourite was The Baseball Ground - Derby

I can't think of any others at the moment.

Edit


'Kin Hell, how did I forget the Goldstone Ground
Can we count Withdean?

Elm Park
Vetch
Manor Ground
Goldstone
Highbury
Ninian Park
Boothferry Park
The Dell
The Den
Filbert Street
Dean Court before it was turned round by 90 degrees
Belle View
Layer Road
Gay Meadow
Highfield Stadium
Plough Lane
Eastville
Spytty Park (oops, not seen the Albion there)

Hard to have a favourite, by virtue they were all pretty grim, had a couple of good trips to Boothferry Park, and great memories of the old Shrewsbury ground.

Millmoor, Rotherham's old place, equals Fellows Park I think in its ramshackle nature. Does Withdean count ?

Can't believe nobody has mentioned (old) WEMBLEY.

plus, for me:

Boothferry Park, Hull
Burnden Park, Bolton
Millmoor, Rotherham
Highbury, Arsenal
Belle Vue, Doncaster
Eastville, Bristol
Filbert Street, Leicester
(old) Dean Court, Bournemouth
Highfield Road, Coventry
Goldstone / Withdean, obviously

Every time I think of one, I scroll down the thread and find it's already been mentioned.

Nobody has listed them yet, but plenty must have seen us at Roker Park (Sunderland) and the Victoria Ground (Stoke), too.
