Brighton Tour HERE 👉🏾 kzread.info/dash/bejne/l5md2sl6fdWcfdI.html

I went to Luton with Villa this season and it was one of my favourite away days. The atmosphere was fantastic.

Some people don’t get it. We go to football for the football. We don’t go for the gourmet food or bowling alleys or any of the other crap. We’ve not chopped and changed our kits. We’ve done it less than most. When managers of clubs who play in front of 60,000 + every other week to warn their players about the hostile atmosphere at Kenilworth Road that says a lot about the dire quality of the modern football fan. The working/poor man’s game has become a middle class game. So many of us have been priced out. Luton have cheap shirts (£54) that cost half of what a glory hunter clubs shirt sells for. Our tickets are the second cheapest. We are treated as fans, not customers.

The Kenny is like a holy pilgrimage. You don’t know a ground until you’ve almost fallen off the steps of the main stand and on to Hatter’s Way

I was born and grew up right next to the stadium. Used to break in to the stadium when I was little. Now its a premier league stadium. Surreal.

I love these old stadiums , full of character, not like the soulless new builds that are now popping up

Kenilworth Road is an iconic stadium and really cool the way that it's like a national league stadium and it goes through peoples houses

Great video, I’m a Luton fan and it’s good to see an open minded creator visit The Kenny. The Barnsley fan you spoke to is correct, we did spend roughly £10million but the club has been very adamant that they’re only investing into the stadium in things that’ll either be put in the new stadium or can hold value and be sold on. We’ve been a club riddled with financial struggles but the current owners are the best football owners imo. Great video, keep it up 👍🏼

haha!! you're more than welcome!! can I recommend you seek out and watch a documentary on the day we avoided the drop into non league. it's a Dutch made film with some sub-titles but well worth a watch to get an idea for the atmosphere at the old ground@@RysFootyParadise

I love seeing these older English stadiums! Being from the southeast of the U.S. it reminds me of some of the older minor league baseball stadiums. Tons of unique features and cool history. Hate to see places like that go away.

The a505 (or Dunstable Road as that stretch you were on is called) the stand by the alley is known as the bobbers stand (the old exec boxes) known as the bobbers because it used to visit 1 bob to get in....and behind the main stand is the old railway line, now a busway

Lovely report Ry. You're right, I don't think any Luton fans have ever called the Kenny "The Old Girl" apart from our chairman in his programme notes. One little factoid for you: the Happy Harry mascot (we also have a Happy Harriette on match days) is a reference to Harry Haslam, a manager in the 70s, who was known for his consistently happy demeanour! (He needed to be!). And you're spot on about the atmos. The Old Girl (oops!) was really rocking on Saturday as we (hopefully) took our first step on another Great Escape! Do come back and visit us when we have the new stadium!

Well done mate, you certainly did your homework, you showed it as it is, glad you mentioned about the tickets, they are like gold dust

Thank you so much for featuring our stadium. Just the coverage the sponsors are after. Why do you think Domino’s have named the oak road end. Because of videos like this! Great stuff, keep it coming.

What the hell are these people talking about when they call this the worst premier league stadium?! It’s up there in the top three. They call Tottenham’s the best, but i think newer stadiums are soulless and boring (yes, Saint Mary’s is an exception but I’d still rather be at the Dell) because there’s no history at the London Stadium or King Power, and the atmosphere at these historic and quirky grounds, hidden in the romantically grotty depths of working-class English suburbs, is second to none.

It was one of those that was tucked between the houses, while Fratton Park has plenty of open space behind some of its stands. St. Mary's is what the club needed but the Dell is what we all wish we could have back.

I was visiting London from the US a couple of weeks ago. I got to see my first Premier League match at Stamford Bridge and tour the Tottenham stadium. However, when visiting with a local friend who is a Villa supporter, he said that he thought Kenilworth Road was a fun stadium to see a match - said there was a great atmosphere there. I’d like to go to some of the smaller stadiums next time. Loved the video!

I've watched a few of your videos. They're an enjoyable watch. I like the way you regularly tour the stadium surroundings on your visits. I'm sure it helps newbies going to grounds. I think you're also very measured and fair in your comments. Kenilworth Road is full of dated charm and character and most certainly a throwback to previous decades. If you like old school grounds, you should come over to Ireland. We've a few in Dublin to start with.

I love Luton Town for that iconic, quirky stadium. The club has been to hell and back in recent times, preventing the club from any progress off the field. I hope they bounce back to the Prem straight away and are there when they move to the new stadium. Look what Brighton have done since they were 'homeless' and moved to their new ground.

It's preety much the best one as you can get so close to pitch

I love those old school English stadiums
