Advantages: Amazing atmosphere

Disadvantages: None

St James Park is the home of Newcastle United Football Club and with this it is the home of some of the best stadium atmosphere in the football premiership (though I am liable to be biased). As stadiums go, this one is pretty attractive with a wire frame around the outside (you can sort of see it in the picture).

The stadium is large with 55000 capacity and is frequently sold out provided it is not a European game. Totally seated, the seats extend to quite a height, however the game is definitely still watchable from the top- though being lower down is preferable.

If you are in Newcastle, it is certainly worth going to a game. You might regret it otherwise since walking round town doing shopping you can hear frequent roars from the stadium which echo around the city.

The stadium boasts a lot of corporate function rooms and also has a community support section with lots of computers and technology from which they run free courses for school kids which are great.

Summary: The best ground in the UK?
