Indeed.
If I could have a 15k stadium of choice it would be based on Northampton Saints RFC - a big side stand with paddock terracing and big stand at one end, the rest low but fully enclosed - keeps the noise in really well.


I’d pick the Altrad stadium Montpellier personally.

York City’s new ground has all 4 stands of a different size.  You can clearly see this.

Talking of Kevin Kilmore above.  He did have one outstanding game that lead to a very special day out.  In 1980 Town were losing 2-0 at Chesterfield in an FA Cup 2nd round replay.  Kevin Kilmore then scored a hat-trick.  

This feat earned us a trip to Liverpool (who were dominating Europe) in front of around 50,000 fans.  
Including 12,000 Town fans, some of whom could not get in Anfield.

Don’t think your memory is correct as we beat Sheffield United 2-0, I think, in rd2 before drawing Liverpool, well that’s how I remember things and bizarrely we beat the same opposition on 9/11 before drawing Liverpool again in the League Cup and the famous victory.

I agree that Doncaster ground doesn't have the character that blundell park has but its much more enjoyable to watch a game in that stadium, much easier to go get a drink or half time food, toilets are not a disgrace and doesn't have any posts blocking your view of the game either

Rotherham’s New York Stadium is slightly smaller than the Keepmoat but appears larger due to having a large main stand running the full length of the pitch so from the outside appears a 25000 seater . Having been in both its miles better than the Keepmoat , stills looks decent with a smaller crowd and the tapered end behind the goal allows for the income that clubs with a decent away following could give you
