    Krasnodar Stadium

    It's nice & round, the other one looks like someone forgot to finish it.

    Krasnodar Stadium, Newcastle's stadium isn't anything special, much better ones in England alone, krasnodars looks impressive


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,645 ✭✭✭SineadSpears


    Quick Google search shows that St James Park from the outside is another of mattress Micks designs.

    Krasnodar Stadium looks a bit prettier, so for now I'll vote for that.

    St James Park is just your typical old school English stadium. Fair enough if that appeals to you. It was pretty much run down the last time I was there.

    So for that reason I'll vote against it. The other one looks amazing

    Krasnodar Stadium

    I will say though when(if) the full expansion to St James Park is completed, it would probably do better in this comp

    St james' park
    So much better looking without the sportsdirect logos all around aswell


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,645 ✭✭✭SineadSpears


    I think Krasnodar might have the appeal (to my eye anyway) because its a lot newer, being built in 2016. So it has all the flash.

    Whereas St James is ancient compared

    Newcastle falls at the first hurdle as the Russians progress. Krasnodar Stadium advances


  • Registered Users, Subscribers Posts: 47,282 ✭✭✭✭Zaph


    Krasnodar Stadium. If St. James' was the same as the stand on the right the whole way round I might think differently.

    I'm sure the Moda Center is a fine venue but I do prefer the more outdoorsy type ones in the main.

    London Aquatics Center

    More of a sporting venue than a local GAA pitch tbh.


  • Registered Users, Subscribers Posts: 47,282 ✭✭✭✭Zaph


    Nice and all as Valleymount is, there's only room for so many picturesque pitches and the London Aquatics Center is a very impressive building, so it gets my vote.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,538 ✭✭✭✭Trigger


    Valleymount GAA, every time I see that Aquatic centre I just see a massive mouse

    Valleymount GAA.

    A pitch surrounded by its own aquatic centre.

    Right so after storming into a 4-0 win, the aquatic centre was pegged back to 4-4 making it a draw. I can see from the answers given that the first two for the London Aquatic Centre gave no reason while all the votes for Valleymount did.

    So with that all said, Valleymount advances
