Good old King James was a Saint and loved Bacon. This stadium was named after his fave meal. (St…read more James' Pork). First-Hand Experience: More info about my personal experience at this stadium - I had a nice little show in a living room in Exeter and afterwards, I checked out a midweek evening game at this stadium. I was so surprised! First of all, I got there near the end, and they let me in for a massively reduced rate. I don't think that's normal though. Secondly, they were absolutely lovely about it. Thirdly, the fans and stadium are awesome! Slightly out of date hence the 4, but one of the best little club stadiums I've been to. That was 2011 and I haven't been back for a game since, though I did stop by here in 2014. I look forward to seeing a second - full - game here as soon as possible. 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 *** It has the same name as Newcastle's stadium but is significantly less impressive, out in the west country, less than 10k capacity, leafy and green with some Exeter buildings around it. There is a railway station right next to the ground. Before it was a stadium, it was used as a farm for fattening pigs. And with the pies served at half time, it basically still has the same use. According to the original lease, the stadium is allowed "no menageries, shows, circuses or steam roundabouts". Which makes it bizarre that they even play football there. The stadium is cute, and it's connected to lots of celebs who are fans, and Michael Jackson was once introduced to the fans here as a director by Uri Geller. All that aside, it's not one of the more impressive stadiums in the league but all the nice red and white paint bumps it up from a 3 to a 4 star ground.

I attended a concert here on Tuesday, and while I thoroughly enjoyed the gig, I was not impressed…read morewith the venue and staff. The acoustics were okay. Barrier held about 70 people. Reasonably priced beer, wine, and spirits. The layout of this venue is a mess-so many sets of doors, it's like a maze. The merchandise for sale was almost impossible to locate after the gig, as all of the exits put people out onto the street again. This was disappointing, as I hoped to buy merchandise. The staff was incredibly rude and ignorant, speaking badly about the artist performing that night, and making fun of the people who had queued overnight to be front row. It was highly evident that the venue staff did not take their jobs seriously at all. Fortunately, the gig was fantastic.

I have only been there for music concerts and mainly because there is nowhere else in the southwest…read more(Thats the pointy bit to the left of Bristol!) to see bands, save for the hall for cornwall. I have to say, the acoustics are dreadful. They are so bad that a few years ago, motorhead could not play there as deep purple were there when motorhead would have been there. motorhead then played exeter university that night and have never been back to plymouth. The other problem is the scheduling, where there is no one there all year and then everyone comes in November. I suppose this is common, though. All in all, not as good as the old St austell collisseum - ah, those were the days!!!! Oh, and there is a skaiting rink and other things to do, although I have never sampled these.
