Which football grounds have you been to which no longer exist? 17:52 - Oct 24 with 10338 viewsMiaow

The only one for me is Griffin Park.

My dad also went to Griffin Park, as well as the old Wembley, Layer Road, Reading's Elm Park, the old White Hart Lane and (I think) Brighton's Goldstone Ground.

I know that one of my grandads would have been to the Boleyn Ground / Upton Park.

I forgot millmoor (although it’s actually still there) and Milton road cambridge. Always made me laugh that camb utd called their ground a stadium when it wasn’t even the biggest ground in cambridge
And AZ67’s old ground

What a great thread.
I've been to many of those mentioned but I don't think these have featured (apologies if I've missed them):

Old Show Ground (Storythorpe United)
York Street (Boston United - once reputedly 'the best non-league ground')

I'm sure there are more but they're not coming to mind just yet

It's 106 miles to Portman Road, we've got a full tank of gas, half a round of Port Salut, it's dark... and we're wearing blue tinted sunglasses.

The Selhurst Park Wimbledon one was cheeky. I could add that and trump you with Selhurst Park Charlton on that basis - and the old Valley before they returned 😃

If you include Wembley you may as well include Portman Road as all four stands have changed there too.

I think the only ground I've watched football in which no longer exists is the Boleyn Ground and I did play at the hockey stadium in MK before it became a temporary football ground

Edit just remembered I went to games at Highfield Road and Millmoor
