I used to be a matchday steward at Crawley. Without a doubt, the Mansfield Town fans were the nicest bunch of supporters I ever had to look after.

This is my local club and my local area so nice to see someone doing a video on them. Hopefully we can get promotion this year

Played and scored there in the early 1960s for Ipswich Reserves against Mansfield Reserves.

I was at that game at Wembley in 1987 supporting Bristol City. Remember the penalty shoot out and how nice and friendly the Mansfield fans were.

My Grandad is a lifelong Mansfield supporter and used to bring me along to almost every home game when I was younger. The atmosphere is always a good one and I'm sure we'll find success under Cloughie. Can't wait to take my young boys when they're a bit older.

These debates are open to semantics, for example what is the definition of a ground. In its earliest guise Field Mill wasn’t a ground or stadium, it was just a recreational field where teams used to play football, like the local park. However Bramall Lane was a proper sports enclosure with fences mainly used to host cricket with the odd big football game played there.

Great video me duck, great fans- super Stags back on the way to league 1 (hopefully) 👍I was at the 87' final, fantastic day out topped off by having to bump start the coach!.....Happy days.

Thank you for a great video and also thank you for giving me some inspiration on which team I should use in my road to glory career mode on fifa23. Mansfield Town sounds great!

Nice to see you getting a good look aroud an EFL side's ground and have a good chat with one of the staff - can't see that happening too often at aChampionship club at definitely not in the elite Premier League !

Gutted I didn’t get too meet you mate, I’m from Mansfield but just went back up to salford for university so literally just missed you!

Never knew this about Mansfield. Interesting as always, Sam! Future ideas: the non-league 'Newcastle United', check out Newcastle Blue Star FC. They rack up very decent attendances for their level.

Really enjoyed that video, Sam. I've been there twice with Tranmere (lost on both occasions 😢)

We need notts county and afc Wrexham back in the football League Edit update, go AFC Wimbledon, Fisher fc because non league Colliers Wood fc and Afc Liverpool because it is a non league team in Liverpool City of Liverpool fc too 😊

Mansfield is a decent place, the people I know there are good folks and it’s great to see the stadium. They’ve got a good manager with Nigel, he’ll improve them AND look after the finances at the same time. Decent bloke!

I’m a darlo fan and I remember when we played Mansfield at Wembley in 2011. Great supporters

I remember in the 1970s going to an anglo Scottish cup tie Mansfield vs partick thistle. I think thistle won 1-0 at firhill bout Mansfield won the leg 3-2. I wish they would bring back the tournament nothing like travelling 100s of miles on a old wet night to watch your team lose. Now I’m experiencing that feeling as an Oldham fan.

Great video Sam

I have played manager mode in FIFA 15 with Mansfield Town. But there was no choice to making my own stadium, but they still didn't give me the original one as well. I regret 🔥🙏. Wanna see you hit 150K subs next month mate 😏

An exciting bit of football history; there Sam. I have never been to Mansfield nor worked; at a game where Mansfield played. I have heard that they have a tremendous fan base that is very respectful towards opposition supporters. I heard the majority stayed on and clapped my team Forest Green Rovers when they clinched the League 2 title their last season.

Dream video by you 😍😍

I've recently discoverd your, channel because of your Eredivisie match vlogs. Since i watched some more video's. I can tell you like some smaller clubs. I would recommend you to go to Go Ahead Eagles (Deventer) currently in the Eredivisie. It's unique in the sense that the stadium (Adelaarshorst) is in the middle of an working class neighbourhood, feels like an Scottish stadium. Fans are really close to the pitch and we are sometimes refered to as small Feyenoord, because of the workingclass fans and passion. Last year we won against Ajax at home and lost by a small margin to PSV in the semi-final of the Dutch cup. Oh it's also only an 1 hour traindrive from Amsterdam Central station. Keep up the great content, from another lad with probably the best name in the world ;)

Mansfield have a very nice stadium and pitch,i would like to see cloughie do well and get them promoted.yes I think visiting Wrexham is a good next choice especially with the new American owners taking over should be an interesting visit.

Try and get yourself down to the South West! Lots of interesting clubs down here and you can come and visit the mighty Argyle, top of League One.

Fabulous my brother 💙👍🏻

Great stadium, good team and nice town Mansfield. It is time you go to Devon. Torquay and Exeter

Brilliant.. City ground next please mate

My mate simon is a die hard fan of mansfield football club! 😉👍

My home town man! Would’ve love to met you!

You should go to the Cambridgeshire derby between Cambridge and Peterborough on the 29th October at Cripple Sidings Lane.

Up the stags 💙 💛 should go to a game here was watch it you’ll fully enjoy it Atmosphere is Q block upper

Mansfield till i die 💛💙

No mention of the developments over the years like the levelling of the sloping pitch and the old main stand bought from Hurst Park racecourse

Maidenhead United are moving out of York Road btw mate so get down there if you’ve not been already

Good to see my local club being shown. Simon Coleman, became the record transfer fee for Mansfield town when he moved from Mansfield to Sheffield Wednesday. Now he is a PE teacher at my school 😂

Well done guys on promotion, come on you stags !!

Wow!!!Mansfield Town,which is one of my favourite respective clubs daily and ever in this world and other planetsnthis is a fascinating stadium which is the oldest used stadium in the world for this club,good friends!!!LONG LIVE,MANSFIELD TOWN!!!🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️

They've got a game set of lads also for the lower league

Gainsborough Trinity is somewhere to visit. Ex football league, and the clubs been there since 1880s.

The World’s oldest football derby was in Mesopotamia around four thousand years ago. Tigris Rovers drew 1-1 with Euphrates United in the South Persian league. I still have the match programme which is written in stone.

Field Mill is mentioned as a cricket venue in 1840

With the Welcome to Wrexham documentary doing so well, Wrexham would be incredible!

Don’t know if you’ve had this idea but you should do a video on the Roses Derby (Leeds Man United) could be a very interesting video and with your knowledge and research could do a good job with the history and everything

It would be good if you considered visiting County Durham Spennymoor Town who play in the Vanarama North league 👍⚽️🥅

Can you come to Shrewsbury Town. We have the new stadium which we have been in since 2007 and the old stadium which was by the river which was called the Gay Meadow. My mum actually now moves in one of the apartments that is sat on the old ground which is cool. There is a video on BBC Archive about the man in the coracle Fred Davies when he had to fetch the balls from the river if they went in during the games. Great videos too. Keep them up. Cheers. Mark.

Gainsborough Trinity, oldest single club ground in the world, the club once managed 6th in the old 2nd division, most premier sides have played here and Man U played there first ever game here. Had a player in the England team.

sheffield uniteds bramall lane is oldest football ground

Anyone who has paid for food at Arsenal knows what's it like to pay for a meal with everything you have

Come to ipswich. Massive history and fantastic 32000 seated stadium.

If you're coming to the midlands I'd deffo recommend Fairford FC in the Cotswolds, best food you'll ever have at a non-league game or perhaps any game

WAAAAAY UP THE STAGS

Love for you to see lincoln city fc

I think The Northolme (Gainsborough Trinity) is older and they have also played in the football league. Only visited Mansfield Town once and was at the away end which was an open terrace at the time and it rained very heavily, I must have gained several kilos that day with the amount of water.

Anstey Nomads have the biggest match in our history on Saturday in the FA Cup 3rd qualifying round. We have never been this far into the competition before. Come down and make a vid about that mate 🔴⚪️

Would be great if you did a game in Northern Ireland

Big up the stags

Shout out Mansfield Texas

Good to see Admin Harry when he's not ripping into opposition fans and players 🤣

You should go Enfield town in north London. They would of been as big if not bigger than the tiny tots down the road if they didn’t get fucked over back in the day. Fantastic stadium and fans. A club with a lot of history.

Chester Till I Die! Come On You Seals! 🔵⚪🦭

So when are you going to Chesterfield? Plus how can a teams stadium pre-date the club by 36 years? And then 1850, wouldn't pre-date the first Football Club in Sheffield?

Come down to Devon and do Plymouth, Exeter, Torquay and tiverton

Surely the scottish team in London. Thr mighty Millwall has to be there 😃

What about Hull City? Not a city fan but live in Hull

Wasn't Bramall Lane a cricket ground where they happened to play football.

There’s an older field/stadium in Australia, most recently held over 100,000 for the AFL Grand Final.

Will you visit Coventry City or Coventry United?

Go back too villa park and do more on villa you’ll have a good time

Cover Southend Sam, I think we have the record for the longest stadium move not to have happened!

How about some conference league clubs specially my fav eastleigh

Everton F.C. has played at Goodison Park since 1892 and has hosted more top flight football matches than any other ground. #uptheToffees

Come to Walsall ground

Mansfield!!!!! 😉👍😉👍

Notts county is the oldest club, Deepdale the oldest Continuous used site for a Stadium and Maidenhead the oldest continuously use Ground for football and Mansfield oldest sports ground, not football ground.

Get yourself to Basford United tonight , Sam!

I think my club Grimsby Town FC have the oldest in use stand in the EFL, the Main Stand!

Bramall Lane is older than Field Mill

Alan Shields Hamilton South Lanarkshire Scotland. Plymouth Argyle , Portsmouth, Wolves , Newport County, Cardiff City , Swansea City , Wrexham are my suggestion off the very top of my head.

stadium and shop of millwall please.....

My gosh. Someone needs to put some respect on Deepdale and PNE. Deepdale is widely recognised as the "oldest continuously used professional football ground in England" granted its contested but they never ever get a mention. Never mind your Stoke's, Maidenhead's and Mansfield, at least North End have a illustrious, rich history with real silverware and honours to boot...

Hiya Sam and everybody just a few or so interesting and fascinating facts about the mentioned subject such as I remember seeing that ground (field mill) lovely name for a ground on television many years ago when it looked rather different like it had some type of track around the outside of the pitch and at the time in the latter 1970s they had one or two seasons in the division two where they played a memorable match v spurs also talking of grounds Saltergate the former ground of local rivals chesterfield was one of the oldest grounds along with Stamford bridge and st James pk Newcastle also about the town of Mansfield it’s great that it now has a railway station with services to Nottingham (the Robin Hood line) as before it was the biggest town in England to not have a railway station after what happened during the beeching era as there was a massive reduction in railway services and now one final and endearing fact that the signature colours of Mansfield town fc blue and yellow are of course the same colours of the flag of Ukraine so there you have it hey

Pretty sure the oldest continually used football league ground is Bramall Lane right?

Is Brian Jackson still there ?

Forest love living in the past

The oldest continuously used professional football stadium in the world is Deepdale.

Categorically Field Mill is not the oldest professional football ground, thats Bramall Lane, the oldest Football ground is Sandy Gate home of Hallam FC

go to wrexham plz sam

Super stags yellows

Come to Sutton United. I'll buy you a beer

Come and see the English play off kings ,and other great history like only player ever to score fa cup final hatrick ,was a Blackpool player in the best fa cup final Stan mortensen,and some great players started careers at Bloomfield road, Alan ball in England's world cup win ,emlynn Hughes ended up captain of Liverpool ,and many more former Anglo Italian cup winners beating mighty Roma on the way ,former England captain Jimmy armfield only played for us ,the world's first attacking full back and much more history ,famous Blackpool fc .

I think Mansfield is the largest town in England without a railway station...... and I need to get out more.

Welsh premier league would be good

Deepdale is the oldest purpose built football stadium to host professional football continuously by the same team in the WORLD!!!!

"Napoleon coming to power in France..." I hate to break it to you, but that would be Napoleon the 3rd, who came to power (as president) in 1848. So that's either very sloppy, mixing up Napoleon 3 with Napoleon Bonaparte, or you just didn't bother to clarify. Why does it matter? Because it makes me doubt everything you say for the rest of the video. Could have done without the whole Sherwood thing, but tastes vary there.

3:10 you will own nothing and be happy.

Morecambe vs Stanley

Hi, great video. Would you be interested in visiting the oldest international stadium still in use? If so, and having a ticket with us to watch a match at Wrexham FC, message me back. Cheers.

Tim Forest 😂

They wouldn't have eaten wild rabbits as they were only kept on farms and didn't become feral until centuries later. Rabbits aren't native to Britain.

Main stand Grimsby is the oldest mate I'm sure

4:47 *1897
