    Cricket stadiums can't be a circle. The boundary line in an oval. Not all are the same size. But commonly a semicircle of 30 yards from the centre of each wicket. Which are are 1 chain (22 yards) apart. Hence the name Oval for the world famous cricket stadium in Kennington, London. Home to Surrey county cricket club since 1845.

The Narrator was an admirer of Shane Warne who played for his State in Oz: "Victoria" but, also, for Hampshire in England.

    Ladies. Most stadiums in the UK were built in places, like the middle of towns, before cars were a thing, & the traditional way to travel to them was by train, for away supporters. The local fans could usually walk, cycle, or take a bus to matches, as teams were very much home grown, with players from the area, & as well as fans. So in most cases they did not, & often cannot cope with lots of car traffic. Only some recently built stadiums, out of the main urban areas, have extensive car parking facilities. In recent times the local attachment is not as strong as it was, because of players coming from all over the place to the main clubs, but there is still fierce loyalty to local clubs. By the way one of the great legends of English football died yesterday. World cup winner, & Manchester United icon, Sir Bobby Charlton (look him up) Rest in Peace. Rugby grounds & stadiums tend to be smaller than major football stadiums, because of not having the money that is spent on soccer. Rugby League has working class origins, while Rugby Union was the none professional game plaid by Gentlemen, originating in the 'Public' (private) schools. the rules for each type of rugby are a little different, but now it is possible to switch between them as Union is now also professional. Cricket grounds usually have little in the way of built structures, except for the major Test venues like Lord's, the Oval, Headingly etc. Traditional stadiums had stands, literally the fans stood to watch matches, but since the Hillsborough disaster , & similar problems, most football stadiums have had to become all seated by law.

    Favourite of mine has to be Anfield, home to England's most successful football club, Liverpool F.C. Although I am a proud Scotsman, I have been a Liverpool fan throughout my life, all because of their iconic manager, the late and great Bill Shankly. You right to mention the song "You'll Never Walk Alone" which is always associated with the fans that stand in the Liverpool Kop at Anfield. Every home game, the late Gerry Marsden's vocal leads the singing as the players come on to the pitch. There is nothing to beat big European nights at Anfield for atmosphere.

    Anfield is very overrated, it's an extremely dangerous area known for its child murders, one week after a child was shot a few hundred metres away from the stadium the players used a gun celebration. Liverpool fans are anti British and claim they are not English but then complain why some of there players aren't in the England team. It's a socialist area with a victim mentality. Yet there fans are big crying babies if they don't spend hundreds of millions in the transfer market. Liverpool fans are the worst fans in the UK by far. Let's not forget there bad behaviour and actions killed 38 people in the Heysel disaster and got all English teams banned from European competition for years. Linked to a decline in the English football pyramid. Imagine a cross between Chicago and Pyongyang

    Hi Girls, I'm from Huddersfield the home of the John Smith Stadium, named after the sponsor a brewery. Not only is it the home of Huddersfield Association Football Club nicknamed The Terriers(after the little dog known for biting your ankles) but is also the home of Huddersfield's Rugby League Football Club known as the Huddersfield Giants. Huddersfield was the birthplace of Rugby League which was formed on 29th August 1895 in the George Hotel (which is still in existence) when Northern Clubs broke away from the Union. This was because the Union refused to share the profits with the Northern Clubs. Rugby Union was in those days played , in the South, by Public School (Private Schools) pupils who still played after leaving. These were the rich people who could afford the kit and playing fields. The Northern Clubs were the Working Class who could not afford the proper kit etc. The Huddersfield Rugby League Football Club originally played at a ground in Fartown (stop sniggering it was literally the Far Town). The ground also had a cricket field which was a County Ground, which means Yorkshire County Cricket was allowed to play there You should check out both Rugby League and Cricket. Did you know that both Baseball and American Football were invented in England.

The capacity has dropped slightly since this video to 29,673 due to a new scoreboard fitted in the corner of the stadium last season, but plans to rebuild the Cobbold stand (the one 'with the shady bit' as Natasha said! 😂) will no doubt significantly increase capacity.

    Lovely reaction video ladies. I must tip my hat to your awareness and willingness to embrace other cultures in knowledge and understanding. You raised a couple of points you requested feedback on: - The clubs are old, 1900’s in many cases. Therefore most of the stadiums were built where the team supporters and the team came from. Supporters couldn’t travel to games any other way apart from walking. Some stadiums have been moved away for better amenities, but not always with success, as at its grass roots it’s still a community sport. (Darlington being the prime example). This is why you still have the quaint and wonderful Kenilworth Road still going. Supporters still want them as part of the community. Arsenal for example was a team from the munitions factory of the Woolwich Arsenal. And the team nicknames can also reflect this, (Northampton town are called ‘the cobblers’, because they made shoes in the town). - Rugby Union stadium attendances. You’ve probably been watching international rugby union. The attendances are much larger than the domestic game. We have a national stadium in England, Twickenham, (82,000 capacity). The other 2 British nations have large national stadiums too, (Wales & Scotland) and not forgetting Ireland’s unique Landsdowne Road, with its very short 4th side due to local residents wanting some light. They do create wonderful atmospheres, especially Wales’ Millennium Stadium and Landsdowne Road. - Rugby split into 2 codes in Huddersfield 1895. (Above a pub). This was because it was an amateur game and the working class northerners couldn’t afford to play without payment, because they couldn’t afford to be away or even get time off work. Rugby League became the professional northern league and rugby Union remained as the amateur southern league, (realistically the midlands too). This is how it remained until Union became professional about 25 years ago. League is very popular in Australia. Far less international rugby league is played, therefore it gets less exposure to international audiences. When I have introduced people to Rugby for the first time, when watching both types they generally prefer the game of League, because it’s rules mean that it is much faster paced and simpler to pick up. Also people who know your Football tend to pick up League quite quickly due to the similarity with the ‘4 down system’. That said they also acknowledge the atmosphere of international rugby Union and the pride of the fans, makes it a great spectacle. I have played both, so will sit on the fence and not compare. - Shire. It’s usually pronounced, ‘Sher’ most places or ‘Shur’ in the north. Never ‘ire’. I could go into a lot of detail, but for brevities sake, I will just say this. English is made up of 3 main influences, German Anglo Saxon, Viking Norse and Norman French, (500 CE through to 1200 CE ish). Therefore lots of these places had sounds before we came to writing any of it down in a standardised way in the mid 1700’s. The 3 influences conflicted in pronunciation and spelling. So we have this weird looking pronunciation vs spelling as a result. It’s time and history. - ‘Ciderabad’ in Somerset. You probably aren’t as interested in this, but I’ll just shed some light. Baseball and cricket have some similarities. But a major difference is the ball should land on the ground before it gets to the batter, (hitter in baseball). It’s an international game and not all soil, (dirt) is the same. In India the ball tends to react a lot more off the ground, (spin). Somerset wanted to do this with their ground and they have a rather unique soil and so had a go. It worked. So, creative individuals looked at the similarity with India and took a major Indian city, (Hyderabad); and combined it with something Somerset is famous for, (Cider) and created Ciderabad. He also made other cricket references. He is from the state of Victoria in Australia and cricket is very popular in Australia. They are, in modern times a very successful team and one of their greatest players who he referenced was Shane Warne. In North American terms you would be comparing to the likes of Bryant, Brady, Gretzky etc. He sadly died recently in his 40’s, an all too sad comparison with Kobe. Keep going with the reactions and the questions. Loving the content.

    I’m from Leeds and a rugby league fan. If the stadium is purely for rugby then they can hold around 20,000. If rugby and football play at the stadium then capacity will be higher depending on the teams and how many supporters they have.

    Congratulations on renewing your Vows Ladies. Some explanations: He said Milton Keynes DONS was the most hated football team. That is because they committed the ultimate sin of moving,not "up the road" but 40 miles away deserting their old fans(they were WimbleDON before, like The Tennis:) The Cricket references. The Narrator was an admirer of Shane Warne who played for his State in Oz: "Victoria" but, also, for Hampshire in England. The "Trent" reference in Nottingham is where The Australians lost to England at Cricket and he joked that Cars were only introduced to one Northern County in The 1970s :)

Another thing that the ground used to be famous for was that the railway behind one of the stands was raised. When trains came along it looked like the were riding along the top of the stand.

    Luton's Kenilworth Road Stadium was at one point artificial grass, my dad who played football in the 1960s for Dunstable Town & Bedford Town took part in a seniors game there with old team mates, it was the last game played on the artificial grass before it was removed in 1991 after a ban on such surfaces. I think only Queens Park Rangers (the first) had another artificial grass ground.

    You should totally check out rugby league. For an American, it is likely a lot easier to follow than union is. The team in possession has six tackles (similar to downs in American football) in which to score, and will usually punt (or try for a kicked goal) on the last tackle. And play is restarted after a tackle, rather than the ball being contested as in union, in a manner very unlike, but analogous to, the snap in American football. As a fan of both codes, I'd say that an average game of league is often more fun to watch than an average game of union.

Coming from a rugby league town you definitely should check it out. Less players than union and more fast flowing game.

Glad that you learnt that Liverpool is in the county of Merseyside, as that neighbours Cheshire where I live.

Although it is not yet complete, it is worth taking a look at Everton's new stadium in Liverpool at Bramley Moor Dock, which is just a 10 minute walk from The Liver Buildings. It will be sad to leave our old ground at Goodison Park, in which I have witnessed 4 league Championships, the bringing back of 3 FA Cups and a European Cup Winners trophy however I am really excited for visiting next season, when our waterfront stadium will be open for business.

    As a Hampshire CCC fan is was wonderful to see our stadium chosen for the one from the county. Lords in London, the home of cricket, just gives me chills every time that I visit due to its history and significance to the sport but so does The Rose Bowl. I know that I am biased but each time I go there I have a feeling of awe, the designers and the club have just created a wonderful edifice. The view of the playing area is superb but there are woods and a golf course next to the ground which make it very scenic. The problem is that it is not the easiest place to get to and, for full capacity matches, such as England test matches, people have to use the train to Southampton Airport (Parkway) station or if travelling by car, park at park and rides quite some way from the stadium (one is next door to the railway station). They are then bussed into the venue. At the end of play there are queues of buses (40 or more) to ferry them back to the station or park and rides. However, you rarely have to wait more than 20 minutes for a bus as they come back empty and do the trip again.

    Rugby league is a very fun game to watch. The rules are a little bit similar to American football (so many tackles/downs then the ball gets handed over). Its a very fast paced game and I think with the right amount of advertising it could become quite big in the US

    A big hello back from Shropshire ladies! Our new ground is very much a "cookie cutter" ground as I believe they're called in the States. The old one was in the town centre, and 5 minutes walk from about 50 pubs. It also "had character," i.e. ramshackle with a mud bath pitch, being underwater for a couple of weeks a year due to the proximity of the River Severn. That did allow for a coracle based ball retrieving system though. Quite useful, considering we've spent almost all our history in the lower leagues, and the ball ended up over The Riverside terrace more times than would be aesthetically ideal!

    According to the Football Association the oldest football ground in continuous use is Sandy Lane of Hallam FC the Oldest professional ground in continuous use is Field Mill home of Mansfield Town FC and who by the way wear a kit manufactured by the same company Newcastle use.

    Just outside City of London before you get to Moorfields is the playing fields etc of one of the Territorial Army regiment units. A splendid sports ground with not much viewing , I think a local (Barbican based ?) School uses it too.

    Parking is not normally a key requirement of stadiums in the UK. Most folk would walk (in the 1900s catch a tram) so good railway services are more useful. Manchester City's stadium being in an area now devoid of housing does have large car parking as does Leeds United's Elland Road ( when that was established the terraced houses and woollen mills were nearby , now gone.

    Nearly, the oldest stadium is Bramall lane (Sheffield United), but top points to you Natasha for recognising the Rose Bowl as a cricket ground (football & rugby we call stadiums, cricket we tend to call cricket grounds)

    Bramall Lane is not the oldest stadium. Hallam’s Sandygate is the oldest stadium. Wrecsam’s is the oldest Football Stadium as unlike Hallam’s stadium, Y Cae Ras is a dedicated football stadium and Sandygate isn’t, Sandygate is a stadium that hosts cricket and football games so it’s technically not a football stadium. Bramall Lane is the oldest English Football Stadium as it was built in 1855, prior to Football being created. But they would not play their first Football game there until 1889. Deepdale was built in 1878 and was built specifically as a football stadium and has been used continuously as a football stadium throughout its entire history, so the guy was correct when he said Deepdale is the oldest continuously used stadium. If Wrecsam had not played a couple of seasons away from the Y Cae Ras in the 1880’s, Y Cae Ras stadium would be the oldest continuously used stadium, not Deepdale

    @@johnhickey4289 I am right, it’s not even close to being the oldest. Bramall Lane was built in 1855, Sandygate was built in 1804 but like I said, Sandygate is not technically a football ground because both Cricket and Football are played on it. Y Car Ras on the other hand was built in 1807 and is a dedicated football stadium. Deepdale as the guy said, is the oldest continuously used Football stadium. It was built for the sole purpose of a football stadium and has been used as such since it was built in 1878, so he was right about what he said. Bramall Lane was not used as a Football ground until 1889, basically a decade after Deepdale and like I said, if Wrecsam had not had a couple of seasons away from Y Cae Ras in the 18880’s, it would be and not Deepdale. Worst thing you can do is a 5 second google search, it’s very unreliable

    Rugby Union is the original game and is played with 15 men and the same shaped ball and there is a genuine contest for the ball when you restart the game either with a scrum or lineout. There is also a contest for the ball after every tackle. 5 points for a try,, 2 for a conversion, 3 for a penalty. Rugby League has only 13 men and is an offshoot started when some wanted to become professional, many many years ago. It is played more like American Football though passes do have to be backward. You get 6 tackles before you have to give the ball to the other team, so teams tend to kick after 5th tackle. There is no contest for the ball at each tackle or at a scrum. There are no lineouts, a non-contested scrum instead. As you keep possession after each tackle a team rarely kicks until after 5th tackle. In many peolple's opinion, Union is a multi faceted game because it is a contest at every stage whereas League is one dimensional.

    Good job on the pronunciations, Natasha! The ‘sheah’ ending happens when the county name stands alone, like “Come and visit WorcesterSHEAH, HampSHEAH and GloucesterSHEAH”. If it’s followed by another word it kind of drops to ‘shuh’ so you get “Add a few drops of WorcesterSHUH Sauce, HampSHUH has a strong Naval tradition and GloucesterSHUH is noted for its cheese rolling contest”. It’s only a slight difference so nobody will jump on you for it. Say ‘shyre’ though, and you’re on your own!😮😂❤

    Deepdale - Preston North End Preston North End are one of the grand old clubs of North West football. Founder members of the Football League, they were the very first team to win the league and cup double. And their ground - Deepdale - is also steeped in history. It first hosted football in 1878 and has since then also been home to the town's cricket and rugby teams too. Although Preston have not experienced too much glory since those early days, 1966 World Cup winners Bobby Moore and Nobby Stiles both managed the club during the 1970s. Another reflection of Deepdale's place in the game is that it housed the National Football Museum from 2001 to 2010.
