Moss Rose, so we had to call in the gardeners. A guy named Ross came in and did it. Did you know that Ross Mows?
First-Hand Experience: More info about my personal experience at this stadium - I've been to this stadium a few times, most memorably in the 00s when I saw Macclesfield face Northwich here. I love coming here. It's such a loud and intense stadium for a tiny non league place. What a credit to this little village. Definitely a 4-star, and if they ever get in the league and get sold out crowds, it'll be a 5 - I know it.
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!

MTFC are a small town team in Cheshire, directly south of Manchester where 2 of the biggest clubs in the UK play, and SE of Liverpool where 2 even bigger clubs play ;)
They've been around since 1874 which makes them insanely ridiculously old, like, if they were a human instead of a team, they'd be setting records and would be bed-ridden.
They play at Moss Rose which holds 6k plus, and play all in blue, and are in the conference premier, they used to be in the football league itself. They are big rivals of Altrincham in the same division. Their attendances are low but passionate, and so I'll give them a 4 for both their nice local village stadium and their historic team. read more
