I'll admit I don't watch much irish league compared to some (compared to others I do lol) before Windsor got its make over I thought it was a far better stadium that should of had more cup finals although Linfield have always had that unfair advantage in that regard! Also yes the comparison to Bradford Rudby league stadium yes very similar and i really like that stadium too, I gave rugby league a bash for a while when sky first started showing matches and I much prefer that stadium to when they were playing in the football stadium as the football looks like its been put together by legos

Bradford Bulls are my club, not often I see/hear anyone talking about them. It was striking how much the oval reminded me of Odsal. He did a video on the championship clubs which features Odsal too.

The Recreation Ground, Aldershot, and Cappielow, Morton. They're very little altered too. The Oval is a great historic ground, really atmospheric.

@@manning0 I think the difference was that Odsal sacrificed an end for all those boxes. But Glentoran's is really a beauty, it has that rustic historic charm. Broken windows in the main stand stairwell, broken pre-Hillsborough crush barriers, grass growing between the concrete terraces. A far cry from any Premier League stadium's creature comforts but I absolutely adored it when I got the chance to visit last month for a match. It was a wonder to see how football was actually watched back in the 70s and before.

Mourneview every time

It is for the island of Ireland but it is located in what would become Northern Ireland

The Oval used to have a JESUS sign but they sadly removed it.

Made me spit out my shitake mushrooms.😆

i second that

From Londonderry to Cork, will be interesting.

These stadiums were set to receive government funding, but that process has been ongoing for more than 10 years, and now the clubs are being told they will have to reapply to get funding all over again

@@asdatesco2594 Understood! It's the way of the world, the bureaucracy in Inaction!

Twickenham needs it because rugby fans spend all their time drinking and subsequently pissing instead of watching the match.

They only just got promoted last season too.

Loughgall.

PORTADOWN ALSO HAVE A THING THAT SAYS LIFE WITHOUT JESUS MAKES NO SENCE.

No he pronounced it right.Lough means a lake and its pronounced lock

@@gallowglass2630 OK thank you for the clarification. There is a town in England called Loughborough and the English pronounce it "luff-burr-uh" or "luth-burr-uh". Figured it was similar in Northern Ireland but I suppose not.

@@neilwhitaker6284 Most of irish placenames are derrived from gaelic whereas english names are from anglosaxon and therefore placenames and pronounciation is very different

@@gallowglass2630 thumbs up yes of course it seems obvious to me now but at the time I wrote my comment it didn't lol. Northern Ireland would be a combination of Irish and Scots from the 17th century. As you say Celtic rather than Saxon. I think what threw me was I was doing a google street view in Louthgall before writing the comment and the village had a lot of Union Jacks flying and subconsciously thought of England. Thing is I am completely sober :)

@@neilwhitaker6284 Most places were already named by the time the scots arrived and when i say scots i mean lowland scots.Highland scots speak gaelic so there placenames are more or less identical to irish placenames.The lowland scots spoke scots which is similar to english ,but as i said they generally used the original names.They are loads of towns and villages in NI dominated by the descendants of scots and english descendants ,but the names are typically irish like Ballymena ,tobermore,rathfriland and so on.

what is the Hedge? I know what a hedge is the long bush that lines the side of the road or a field but I don't think that is what you mean.

@@neilwhitaker6284 It's the hedge at Brechin City's stadium

@@BigKendog thank you. I don't know that but I am about to go look it up!!!

Glentoran stadium is a huge dump anyways

It doesnt. It hasnt held that amount for decades. It's currently just over 6,000. The figure for Cliftonville's is long out of date too. probably around 3,000

The largest stadium would be Pairc eisler GAA in Newry 20 000 capacity,not a football stadium but the biggest stadium in NI nonetheless

Safety reasons, Glentoran aren't allowed to open it to that and I can honestly see why having been there.
