Sheffield Wednesday FC - Main entrance

Sheffield Wednesday FC

So when I was setting up my tour, obviously I played Leeds on Monday, Bradford on Tuesday, and…read more.. duh... Sheffield Wednesday. A She-Field is basically a female version of a He-Field, and it's way better in every way than a He-Field. So now you know. Bell Biv Devoe. First-Hand Experience: I'm lucky enough to have seen Sheffield Wednesday live on 6 or 7 occasions, including in the very old days down in Oxford, and of course at their home stadium more recently. Which was very sad for me. This team is a brilliant team that is a giant of the English game. I have to separate them from their stadium which was a death trap and a heartbreaking place for any Liverpool fan. They were formed in 1867 and so are one of the oldest teams in the world. They're currently in the second tier but are a fallen giant, along with Sheffield United, and belong back in the big time as soon as possible. They were originally a cricket club which is kind of boring. The club played only on Wednesdays, hence the name of the team now. They play in boring blue and white. The Arctic Monkeys, Gary Cahill, Paul Carrack, Jarvis Cocker, Michael Palin, Jonny Greenwood of Radiohead and Def Leppard all supposedly support the Owls. Yes they're nicknamed the Owls, how adorable. They have won the Premier League 4 times, in 1903, 1904, 1929 and 1930, so some really amazing pedigree there. They won the League Cup as recently as 1991 when they were still a top team, and they won the FA Cup in 1896, 1907 and 1935, so their trophy cabinet is definitely full and impressive. They've spent 66 seasons in the top division, but not since the year 2000, so hopefully they'll be back soon. The reviews here that are for the stadium need to be moved to the new stadium listing. They once beat Geri Halliwell 12-0. I'd rather join her than beat her. Chris Waddle, Des Walker, Marc Degryse, Paolo Di Canio, David Hirst, were a few of the legends here. Sheridan, Harkes, Wegerle too. Americans before Americans were cool. Just don't ever go and watch them on a Tuesday or a Thursday. It'll end badly.

Second visit and still only slightly impressed. Worth visiting the area around it for a wind down.read more

The Keepmoan stadium is for all of those who keep moaning about their team and their players and…read morewishing an oil baron would come and buy them. First-Hand Experience: More info about my personal experience at this stadium - I had an absolutely fantastic time at Keepmoat when I was here in 2011. I played a concert in Doncaster and then came here the very next afternoon, before my evening concert in Sheffield. The fans were much louder and more intense than I expected, and my friend that brought me (he owned the hotel where I was staying in Doncaster) turned out to be a rabid fan too. I absolutely loved every second of it, but if I'm rating it strictly on the facilities, then it's a 4. Just because it's not usually full and would be even more amazing if it could be packed every week. I've been to most UK & US stadiums, due to lifelong obsessions with travel, sport & especially footy (soccer to Americans). Born & raised in England, I followed Oxford United (hometown team) to stadia all over the country at away games, and later Liverpool (fave team) around. Every stadium review - like all my reviews - are from first-hand personal experience, usually from several visits. In 2011, I was on music tour in the UK, and visited most stadiums for fun in my spare time. As recently as Fall 2014, when I was "stuck" in UK for 3 months, I went to hundreds yet again while travelling. I have pictures of me at most, which I'll post later. Also, when back in UK I'll take more pix, and add more stadia! *** return to regular review *** The fans here don't always create the best atmosphere, but it's a really lovely new stadium, and is excellent size wise and facilities wise for a city like Doncaster. If you ever visit Doncaster, stay at the lovely Caribbean B & B. It hosts 15k and is all-seater and very impressive on every level.

If you've been to Hull and back, or to Hull in a handbasket, or if you think you're going to end up…read morein heaven and not Hull, then you might love this team. First-Hand Experience: I've seen Hull City (the Tigers) play live 3 or 4 times before they moved to the KC, and just once at the KC. And of course on TV many times, but in person just 4 or 5. They're one of my fave teams other than the teams I support. They play in shiny gold and it's a real shame they just got relegated. Their stadium is a palace, and their fan support is absolutely amazing. I love coming to the KC. I really hope they're in the Premier League again sooner rather than later. I certainly love them, even though they currently have Steve Bruce (yawn) (he has a big head) as their manager. Definitely one of the best teams in the country. Until recently they were the biggest city never to have top division football but that all changed when Hull got promoted under Phil Brown, and now again with Brucey. They are the Tigers, they have a controversial owner, and they play in yellow and black at the KC which holds 25k. They were formed in 1904 so they're brand new in football terms, and the mascots are Roary and Amber - two tigers who are siblings. They were runners up in the 2014 FA Cup and that is the only thing they've ever really accomplished, which makes them kind of pathetic, which makes me feel sorry for them and give them five stars. Plus they play in pretty colours.

Elland DeGeneres built this stadium. Hopefully soon the listing will be changed to reflect the name…read moreof the stadium instead of one of the teams that plays here, because all the reviews are for the stadium not the team. First-Hand Experience: More info about my personal experience at this stadium - I've been to Elland Road only 3 times, amazingly. Once to watch a game (which was an amazing atmosphere for sure), and twice just as a tourist, including just a few months ago in late 2014 when I was stuck in the UK. It's a fabulous, big, impressive, intense hulk of a stadium. It just really needs some renovation, so that Leeds can have a palace like a lot of other clubs of similar size do. I'm sure it will be renovated but probably not until Leeds get back in the big time. My fave thing about coming here was the banter and the intensity. Sometimes the home fans are a little too aggressive though and things can get violent. Especially when they're facing United. I've never seen Leeds v United at this ground but the game I did see, I could see the extra aggression and intensity and it did scare me. Leeds won, though... so there was no rioting. I've been to most UK & US stadiums, due to lifelong obsessions with travel, sport & especially footy (soccer to Americans). Born & raised in England, I followed Oxford United (hometown team) to stadia all over the country at away games, and later Liverpool (fave team) around.

Also, when back in UK I'll take more pix, and add more stadia! *** return to regular review *** It's one of the most famous grounds in football, home to the team that has fallen perhaps the hardest, one of the true greats and giants of football but hasn't been in the top flight for what seems like decades. It's not quite even, one stand is enormous, the other three are medium sized, so for that reason and for seeming so lopsided, it only scores 4 despite an amazing amount of crowd support here. It's an intimidating place to play or see an away game. It used to be called the Old Peacock Ground, and with 38k people squeezing into it, is one of the largest stadiums in the country, especially for non-Prem grounds. It was built in 1897 and renovated many times. It has hosted Euro 96 tournament games, England games, and FA Cup Semi Finals, plus performances from rock bands Queen, U2, Happy Mondays and more recently, the Kaiser Chiefs and Rod Stewart. But the show must go on, so in the name of love, understand that this is how it feels to be lonely, if you don't understand then I predict a riot, and Maggie May start it.

Ok maybe the team isn't worth 5 stars, but when you've been going as long as I have (over 35 years)…read moreyou have to give them all you've got. I've watched through thick and thin - from incredible nights against Barcelona in 1975 and the Champions League run a few years ago to the misery the club has been in since the Ridsdale disaster.. Don't get too settled on us being in the doledrums - we'll be back one day!
