Poshest Riverside Middlesbrough inside Sulphur smell outside courtesy of various chemical companies make it rough as well Roughest Bootham Crescent. Dilapidated crumbling terrace (five months ahead of Meadow End) Toilets Jack the Ripper would pass on Also Bradford Park Avenue Abysmal soulless Victorian environment Porta cabin toilets sloshing in piss due to 15 degree slope on floor

The toilets at Priestfield, before it was tarted up by Scallywag were a bit ripe. Open roof and limited room and no hand washing facility. Rank…

Cheltenham is a decent shout. If ever there was a town with a dark underbelly.

Cheltenham is a decent shout. If ever there was a town with a dark underbelly. You should know, I guess. Whaddon is an 'interesting' part of town. Forgot that we were escorted away after the match there too. And, worse still, as there is no parking around their ground, all supporters coaches were instructed to park at the racecourse for the duration so missed the match. Much like at Aldershot, made to park up in some barracks miles from the ground there.

Whaddon Road has never been the same since Roger Thorndale departed.

Trips to Doncaster's old stadium were always 'interesting'.

Well, aren't Hereford fans a haughty bunch; if pubs in the area don't serve sage and anchovy canapés, gulls' eggs with celery salt, or clam toast with pancetta, it's considered rough. Wouldn't expect anything else from people who think Newton Farm and Shangai are rough. Can't think of anywhere rough, but the poshest had to be Home Park, Plymouth; you were never too far from a shop selling Dewdney Brothers pasties. Alas, the business closed in 2014.

Trips to Doncaster's old stadium were always 'interesting'. They were. One remembers a visit during the second, brief Addison era. Billy Bremner was in charge of Doncaster Rovers. Seeking our four complimentary tickets we were met outside Belle Vue stadium by Steve Lowndes who checked our names and handed over the tickets, announcing that he had failed a fitness test - all without removing a pork pie from his mouth. Eager for some beer we were ushered by a red-tunicked gentleman to a small fridge in the corner where two cans of Guinness were unfurled to share between the four of us. Lost 3-0. Didn't go to town. Back in the Cock of Tupsley about five to eight.

Your spot on about a dark underbelly with Cheltenham. For me the roughest has to be Burnley. I remember being at uni, must have been around 98 and a lad on the same course took me up to his hometown on Nelson before watching Burnley v Preston. Took me to some of the social clubs and pubs before and after, an experience I will never forget.
Not sure I agree on Plymouth being the poshest, havent we had a few running battles in the surrounding parks when leaving the away end there, back in the 90s?
Woking away was quite smart for me. A remember sitting in the back of the car, asa kid, going to a cup game and thinking how much nicer the hood was compared to Shanghai.
