5:40 The contrast is there because our owner forgot that we are nicknamed 'The Bluebirds' and decided to change our main colour from blue to red. He's Malaysian so thought he could sell more shirts in the Asian market where red is a lucky colour. When the extension was built, we were still playing in red before we, rightly, reverted back to blue. The red seats were installed and no idea if they planned to change the seats in the entire stadium, but at least Wales plays in red so we still have that connection, and the Wales team often plays international matches there.

Not everywhere, in Hindu Nepal and India, orange and yellow are holy so close enough. Nepali language doesn't have a word for orange so some people call orange as red as well.🙂

[@middleagedwomanwithahandba2795]

Fun personal fact about Craven Cottage. I was once given tickets to go to a match there, went to order some beers in a tiny bar which seemed a bit hidden away in one of the stands.. and Hugh Grant was standing right next to me. It was so bloody surreal. Nice ground though, it has character that a lot of the identikit modern grounds don't have.

Glad you liked our stadium, the in the winter the Hawthorns is bloooooooming cold. The images of inside the ground are about 10years old, as there is no "scarf" design on the seats any more. Boing Boing!! WBA.

[@ataylor1960]

The stands at Deepdale were not built all at the same time, the Sir Tom Finney stand replaced the old west stand 1995, Bill Shankley Kop 1998, Allen Kelly Town end 2001 and The invincibles Pavilion 2008, although all had been planned at the same time. You didn't mention the pictures of the three players in their appropriate stands made by various coloured seating.

I really love the Championship! So many iconic clubs, three derbies in Lancashire (Preston, Blackburn, Blackpool) and it hosts the Welsh derby (Swansea vs. Cardiff). Some very unique clubs such as Millwall. From my perspective, this is a much more interesting competition than the Premiership where you're just watching investments from billionaires for unaffordable ticket prices, not to mention the rising number of 'modern stadiums' in the PL (this hit rock bottom for me since the announcement of Everton leaving the 'grand old lady') instead of these old-fashioned, charming and lovely stadiums you can find in the Championship and below, which still represent the specific and unique character of British football. Probably I'm a desperate romantic. But stadiums such as Kenilworth Road were built for their own neighborhood, not for people watching Pay TV in China, in the Middle East or in the US and thereby grabbing more and more money. Best regards from Germany

[@DarrenLamb-on3py]

Totally agree. I'm in preston and our stadiums were all built for local ppl, not fair weather fans in Hong Kong who pretend to be Liverpool fans this week and then Chelsea fans next week. The true heart of football is the old local clubs. I think only England and Germany has such a strong 2nd tier scene.
