Had a look on Google Earth as I was curious - the pitch has an elevation of 249 metres at one end and 244 metres at the other. A 5 metre drop over 100 metres is absolutely mental. You can zoom in to pitch-level on Google Earth and it's a proper slope! For perspective, it's actually steeper than any section of mainline railway in the UK. Too steep for our trains - perfect for football!

It’s not a football pitch. It’s a bloody ski jump.

You need to come to Maidenhead Uniteds York Road before we move grounds. The olldest continuously used football ground in the world by the same club. There is a lot of history and at the moment there is a lot of disagreement about the ground move and petition against the council for not allowing the move.

The top goal line is in line with the bottom crossbar its so slanted, also Daniel Pudil was playing for the hammer and pincers Sunday team, which is a pub team round the corner before he played for Hallam. He played an game for them that the Hallam chairman or manager was watching (cant remember which) and was asked if he wanted to play for Hallam.

Sheffield has the oldest football team in the world (Sheffield FC), the oldest football stadium (Hallam FC), and both teams play in the oldest football tournament (the Rules Derby). All recognized by the FA, UEFA, and FIFA with Pele paying tribute to them multiple times. Meanwhile the University of Cambridge has a statue in a Cambridge park claiming they invented Football because obviously it was invented by toffs in top hats not those damn working class ruffians!

The forerunner of the first rules were developed at Cambridge by public school boys who all played different rules at school and wanted to play with each other.
