For a railway enthusiast, South Bermondsey would be a top place for a ground.

No one has mentioned the Lawson Tama Stadium in Honiara, Solomon Islands yet. Quite a unique international football venue graced by our very own once in '04 and '05:

Yes, nothing like the snapping sounds of distant rifle fire to create an atmosphere

The same could be said about that ground in Croatia...or Millwall

Like Jeffles Queenstown has to be one of the great scenic venue. I went to the NZ VS SRL game and it had never looked so better. With the International Airport right next door it makes for great viewing.

I think the name of the stadium is "Kantrida" and seats 10.300. It is the homeground of HNK Rijeka (Croatia).

You can find more pics on the german www.stadionwelt.de site.
This will link you directly to the pics. Just click "Zu den Stadionfotos" to see the different categories.

Stadium High School in Tacoma, Washington (USA). This was the school used in the movie "10 Things I Hate About You" staring Heath Ledger.

Not bad for a high school. Wouldn't have minded if my old school had a field like that, minus that damn Astro Turf though.

Thanks MO

That Tacoma stadium is very nice but why is the track that shape? Unless it used to be for baseball but it doesn't look big enough

Great for a High school stadium, all my school had was a pissy hill.

Yeah wierd. Maybe because the concrete stands are set in the hill, that was the natural shape of the landscape and they couldn't afford to do it differently.
