So near the coast it’s got to be Scotland and due to the size of the ground can only be Aberdeen

Won't say which one I went to just in case it turns up on here some time . Again looks US to me , but again could be very wrong . Looks near industrial area .

Yes, we used to use the river and a boat like you can see in this video.



Or better in this



I introduce myself, I'm Athletic Club supporter (from Bilbao, Spain). I liked a lot the Amazon documentary about Leeds club, I love the spirit of Leed's supporter and I think that it will be good that supporter from real football teams are conected between them, no to company football clubs like Real Madrid.

And of course, "A lo Loco se vive mejor" (the crazy way is the best way to live [a difficult phrase to translate for me, I hope deepl did it well]). That was the chant that we, the Athletic's fans, sang when our manager was Marcelo Bielsa.

Mainly thanks to the presence of West Midlands Police who in my experience as a football fan are the biggest bunch of &*$&% going!

OK, whilst not particularly ‘famous’ a cricket ground, which has been used for County Cricket games, in a very picturesque setting.

I worked just around the corner from there many years ago. , at a Ladbrokes shop . It was an horrendous area , a real slum but the east & south side of Brum is pretty much all slum, or was early 80's and well into the 90's . Never been there to watch anything but often went to the Hawthorns , WBA . I remember Leeds rioting there after relegation , 81 , I doubt you could tell the difference before and after . Albion's ground now is quite nice , don't know about Blues though .
