Description
Remarkable Football Grounds is a collection of some of the world's most memorable places to watch and play football, from the Premier League to remote islands and far-flung stadia.
From the oldest and biggest stadiums to the quirkiest and furthest-flung, this book features a range of incredible grounds and the stories behind their existence. You'll discover Italian Serie B team Venezia, which can be reached by canal, and Bamburgh Castle football ground, nestled in the shadow of a Game of Thrones-scale fortress.
Some of the oldest and most storied stadiums are included, alongside the quirkier and more unusual ones, such as the Aveiro stadium in Portugal, which looks like a giant children's playset, and the Janosovka football pitch in Slovakia, which features a narrow gauge railway running between the pitch and the grandstand.
