Why's it 15th though? Should be 72nd if that!
They’ll see it as a win. League one club and just out of admin and they’re still a championship level ground.

And after all our failure payments we’re still only 2nd. We’re a club on the way down whereas they’re a club playing above their level
 
Don't think I'd have had Molineux 1st though.
It's a perfectly fine stadium but the newest stand makes it a bit lop sided and I like to see no gaps in the corners. (But not a bowl design)

Judging only from the away end, I didn’t really rate Molineux. Preferred West Brom

Hawthorns is definitely better than Molineux.

They’re both significantly better than the Sty of course.
 
Obviously AI has its faults, but both chatgpt and gemini has the lane on top...

This summary from Gemini is spot on...

1. Bramall Lane​

  • Capacity: ~32,000
  • Opened: 1855
  • Why it stands out: It holds the title of the oldest major stadium in the world still hosting professional football. Bramall Lane seamlessly blends Victorian heritage with modern facilities. The atmosphere under the floodlights when the home crowd sings "Greasy Chip Sammy" is unmatched in lower-league football.
 
I must admit I like the idea of the Lane creeping up on visitors (before the inevitable kidney punching to the floor if they young, old, infirm or woke in any way) but what comes as a real surprise is this idea of moving the kop pillars - why hasn't someone thought of this before?

It "seamlessly blends Victorian heritage with modern facilities"?

Where's the Victorian heritage? There's nothing left of our ground from the 19th century. Unless it's the kop steps.

Or the toilets on the kop!

It's why we got given 2nd spot. Visitors to the lane can be guaranteed a good punch to the kidneys pre and post match.

You can't put a price on that experience.

The clock above the Museum.
 
I asked ChatGPT and it said that the Kop "mound" was still there pre-1900. It would make an interesting excavation, I'm sure.
 
Wasn’t Sutcliffe the Blades correspondent for The Athletic for a few years?
