Hey at least Svangaskarð is on the second-largest of the Faroe Islands! Nólsoy has a population of about 200, an area the size of Alderney, and they've managed to squeeze a pitch on there! The most remote ground in the league is probably FC Suðuroy's á Eiðinum stadium, which is a three-hour ferry away from the capital and then out of the harbour and a drive to the west side of the island. Until the island of Borðoy was connected by a bridge, Klaksvík had to get a boat to the mainland, get across the mainland, and then another boat!

As a Hongkonger, I remember our national team have drawn with Bhutan and Maldives in the 2018 world cup qualifiers, and thus played in two of these stadia, i found them very interesting back then and now you are introducing them, amazing!

Not a football/soccer stadium but Empower Field at Mile High home of the Denver Broncos of the NFL is because the city of Denver in Colorado is literally a mile high so the air is less thick so players who aren’t used to it get exhausted a lot easier than the Broncos players who are used to the high altitude. This is basically confirmed because the Broncos have had a 51-8-2 record in the first two weeks of any season since they have played there

As a Maldivian let me clear something up ya. The stadium in Maldives is called “Rasmee Dhandu.” In Dhivehi (Maldivian language) Rasmee means Official. Dhandu means Field or Stadium. So, the name literally means “Official Stadium”. And the stadium is in the middle of our capital city of Malé. Thanx for including Maldives in this list. Good luck!!

Not exactly football related, but Barrow High School's American football field is worth a look if you've never seen it. They play all their home games above the arctic circle

I love these stadium videos you should make a stadium playlist though

Did anyone see Alfie score for Wolves the other day?

In terms of remoteness by distance from the mainland, I think Addu Football Stadium (also in the Maldives, in the southern part) deserves a shout (although probably not used these days, it hosted a group in the 2014 AFC Challenge Cup). To add to its remoteness, I remember reading in an article and hearing from the commentators about the Philippines national team (Azkals-related video please?) having to take boat rides to and from the venue, some of the players even suffered from motion sickness.

Baltika Kaliningrad away to a side in Vladivostok is a fair hike . . . - imagine if the game went to Extra-Time as well, miss your flight and you've about 8000km in a taxi.

Love the Video mate! I’ve always dreamed of visiting some of the worlds most unique and beautiful stadiums!

A Football stadium that you could have mentioned is that of Scottish Highland League side Fort William's Claggan Park Capacity 1,800 and really remote closest club to them is 70 miles away however due to the terrain up there it takes a number of hours to get to any other club.

Video idea: 7 oldest players to have made an appearance in Europe’s top 5 leagues this season.

Ascension or St Helena seem like good shouts for this...

The most remote large stadium might be the Omnisport Stadium of Pater (TE HONO NUI) in French Polynesia, with a capacity of 11,700. And if you only want to include countries that play at a high level of international sport, Tonga's Teufaiva Sport Stadium (10,000) might be it. Granted, they use it primarily for rugby and aren't very good at football, but....

Always fancied an away day to Ittoqqortoormiit. 🍺

I have been to Hasteinsvollur to watch a top flight Icelandic League match in 2007. There actually used to be two teams on the island before the volcano erupted in the 1970’s taken out a large portion of the homes.

In terms of not may be remote, but certainly, the longest distance traveled for a European Cup Winners Cup match must be the 7,000-mile round trip that Cardiff City faced in 1968 to play Torpedo Moscow in Tashkent which is now in Uzbekistan, then in the USSR.

Check out the KHL (European/Asian ice hockey League) and some of the away trips involved in that!

At 10:25 without subtitle I thought he said ''estimated they have lost over 1000 footballers down the mountain'' lol since I heard the word ''footballer'' more often than ''football'' in this channel :) Next video: Every national team's stadiums in the world

The Stadium shown @ 2:30 is not on the Island of Tenerife its on the island of La Palma and is home to Club Deportivo Mensajero. I know I've been there once to watch a friendly against Las Palmas and once to buy a car, I test drove it through that tunnel to the left to check out the engine sound (I bought a V6). Its sits in-between two mountains and has spectacular views of the ocean, one of my favourites to visit. Oh and La Palma well worth a visit, to the north of the island is a Rainforest.

Can we get a "Top 7 Players with the Highest Total Transfer Values" ie, adding up all of their transfer fees

Bruv, try Marora Stadium in Serui, Papua. It's an active stadium for Perseru Serui, a club in the top flight league in Indonesia. While Michael Essien plays in this league a couple years ago, he went to this stadium and he said that it was an experience he won't forget :))

Video idea : England B team that aren’t in contention to make this summers Euros 23 man squad.. Lamptey, Tarkowski, Ben White, Harvey Barnes, Ollie Watkins etc

I think that a case could be made for includion of a stadium in a Russian town of Anadyr, which is located on Chukchi peninsula in the far, far Northeast Russia. Especially with how far it is from the rest of Russia (and the world as a whole). Though it is somewhat unlikely that any non-amateur team has ever played there.
