Most Intimidating Stadiums

[Jordie]

you've been to?

leeds
qpr
watford which is derby day for us

and i think our own ground Kenilworth Road can be pretty intimidating at times. tiny compact stadium where you can almost touch the players where you are so close.

[Geraint]

Ninian Park.

You don't feel intimidated by other teams when you go to Cardiff nearly every week.

[Geo23]

Only been to 2.

- Roots hall
- Priestfield

But i say RH is poor for atmopsher but the Keepmoat looked unbeatable when i saw Southend lose 5-1 to doncaster ((Still feeling the pain lol)

Trust me, it isn't.

[Jordie]

trust me aswell it isnt

[Yoshimitsui]

Why do you think leeds is?

[Captain]

Portsmouth.

[Loser]

Fortress Ninian, I hear, is very intimidating for away fans. The low roof, terraces and being surrounded by mouthy Cardiff fans.

[PaintYourTarget]

The Cardiff fans will give you a go even when they're away from home. I know whenever they come up to Cov something usually kicks off.

The Dawg Pound in Cleveland Browns Stadium in Cleveland, Ohio.
BY far most intimidating place in all of the NFL.
Im talking american football btw.
Any of you from the UK like american football?

[Funya Chin]

South Stand Keepmoat.

East and West are a ******* joke.

[Sepron]

watford stadium (vicarage road) isn't that bad haha, bit small and cramped though.

[Browney]

I've never been there but people say Fenerbahce's stadium is pretty intimidating.

And I watch NFL whenever I catch it on Sky Sports. Which isn't very often but still. :P

Fortress Ninian, I hear, is very intimidating for away fans. The low roof, terraces and being surrounded by mouthy Cardiff fans.

And this season it's got it's intimidation factor back. Cardiff fans will be there every game to say goodbye to the much loved Ninian Park. This isn't the season to come to Ninian Park.

[Jordie]

Why do you think leeds is?

leeds were loud when i went and i mean loud!
they were on -9 when we played them and their fans were getting right behind them. all kicked off outside after bottles and coins were thrown between either supporters i just found it extremely intimidating.

and cocaine like i said watford is a our biggest derby and its always buzzing when we play eachother. i know it isnt when other teams go there though

[PaintYourTarget]

Old Trafford
Maybe for the away players and Ref's to have that many people shouting at you, but for the fans no way is it. The majority of the time the away fans are outsinging and shouting the home ones because they truely do only sing when they are winning. You're too far away from anything to be intimidated.

britannia stadium ;)

[Titch]

Millenium stadium 4 years ago when Manchester United Vs Millwall in FA Cup Final. I was soiling my boxers the whole match sittin next to the millwall stands.

[Funya Chin]

That song is just pure racist. Anybody who sings it should not be allowed in a football ground ever again. It is funny with the actions though.

I love NFL! :) and I believe ANFIELD! to be the most intimidating stadium ever. :)

[Geraint]

Anfield is so intimidating that some Liverpool fans said they'd never been so scared in their own ground when Cardiff went there.

[Jordie]

I agree with you that anfield is intimidating but only when they are against another of the big 4, everton or in europe. i went there with luton and we outsung them from start to finish even at 5-1 down. i know it was a 'nothing' game to them against us but it would be better if they created the same sort of atmosphere against any team in the country. id say the same goes for other big 3 aswell.

How is it racist? :lol:

[piddle2k6]

Fitness first stadium haha, to be fair when we played leeds it was quite bad haha.
The den is too haha, especially when i took a pen on the pitch and scored right by their lot haha

[Looochella]

Oh My...
Its gotta be White Hart lane.
For the HOME FANS.
The away fans are way too loud. LOL.

[Jamie!]

None of the grounds I've been to (a good 30+) have been that intimidating to be honest.

The only ones that have come close are are Swansea (Liberty Stadium), Millwall (New Den) and oddly, Darlo (Feethams).

Me dad says the only ground he's been to where he has actually been scared is Boro's old Ayresome Park.

I'll be honest and say that is true. Last game I went to was Lazio pre-friendly 2 weeks ago and the atmosphere was nothing compared to Chelsea and Arsenal in the champions league games. But when we want an atmosphere, its an awesome atmosphere.

[Flamedragon3]

Anfield is intimidating, its very crowded (I see why they're making a new stadium) and there fans do get behind their team. I went there once, and City won 2-1 to an Anelka penalty in the last minute and the whole stadium was covered with Stewards around the pitch lol.

I've been to Old Trafford twice, one was against City where it was quite, the other was an England match where it was incredible with the fans getting behind the team. I also found at Man City's stadium, when there was an England game, the stadium was very intimidating, we did a Mexican wave and everything around the stadium, which worked really well as the stadium is a perfect oval, with no block stands in each side.

Only the south stand in Man City is intimidating as we nearly always singing. But the rest of the stadium don't really do much except walking in and out of the stadium lol. Also because the South Stand is where the away fans are, it encourages us and the away fans to sing even more :P Sometimes it gets too violent, like the game against Liverpool which was 0-0, the liverpool fans lobbed coins and a plastic beer bottle at us... :/

Other stadiums from the top of my head that are quite intimidating are:

Derby (when they were beating us by one goal)
Prestons stand next to away fans
Wolves
Blackburn
erm can't think of anymore? :o

I have been to quite a lot of stadiums though. I'll send another post if I remember any others. ;)

[CJW93]

Upton Park and The Den

[_Liam]

None have been that intimidating in my opinion

I've been everywhere

only missed about 3 away games in last 10 seasons

Leeds werent really that bad , neither were milwall.
ninian park weren't either.

Btw i'm a wednesday fan and followed wednesday for 2 seasons when they were in prem

[Hollyish]

Watching football is crap, only play it (y)

We'll be back, you watch.

[Jahova]

Cardiff - Ninian Park.
This season will be the one with the most fans saying goodbye to the stadium.

[luce]

i have been to

Old Trafford (multiple times)
City of manchester stadium
WBA (whats the name)
Malenuixu (Wolves)
Aston Villa (name?)
Wembley

I say it does depend on what game it is and what's happening, so im not saying which one is, but i think when the game means something, it's better
