Welcome to the Theatre of Screams (somebody was murdered on the golf course on the other side of the road, and the killer was never caught). The grand tour begins with the dugouts... note they are thick concrete, with removable seating. This is the only way to prevent the local scrotes and their arsonist tendencies.  |

The Main Stand... It used to have a back and sides for shelter, but they get torn off so regularly by feral yoof, that nobody bothers reconstructing it any more 😕  |

The 'Road End' goal, with the changing rooms/half time cup-a-soup shack in the distance... The kids usually pull tiles off the roof and break in that way 🙄  |

View to the 'Woods End', from the Road End penalty spot... The pitch is just a tad bobbly at this time of year. Hope you enjoyed this stadium tour 👍  |

Least it's flat, I've been to some with about a 20 degree slope, you always wanted to be playing downhill in the second half. Like the dug outs though, and is that a technical area marked out?

Stockwood Wanderers ground in the same league is called the 'Fishbowl'... It is concave with the centre spot slap bang in the centre depression. It's noticeably uphill to either goal. Got to have a technical area, for the managers, assistants, physios, and subs, to ignore. Well, I say physios, but at this level, it is just some random person with a bucket of water and the good old school magic sponge. |

'Theatre of Screams' has to be the best stadium (let's use the word stadium extremely liberally here) name ever. Great backstory, too. I dig the fallout shelter motif of the dugouts, though the whole 'shed without walls' spectator seating area leaves something to be desired. If I ever need to film a football sequence in a post-apocalyptic world, I know just where to go.
Also, how many bodies get discovered each time an errant shot ends up in the woods?

I made up Theatre of Screams... It's a riff on Man Utd's ground. No more murders up there since that kid was found bludgeoned and strangled to death on the golf course. Often find burned out shells of stolen cars and motorbikes in the woods, and a few years ago we had the Penpole Streaker period, where a bloke would jump out from behind a tree in front of ladies walking dogs and show them his wares. |

Good, now I can petition my town to change the name of the football field without feeling like I ripped anyone off (except you, of course). |

You'll need to have someone savagely murdered nearby though to make the name make sense. |
