Presenter Who Visited All 92 Stadiums Reveals Most Hostile Grounds in England

A presenter who went to all 92 stadiums in England's top leagues has revealed the ground with the most hostile atmosphere.

Over the years, stadiums such as Anfield in Liverpool and St James' Park in Newcastle have built up a reputation for being an incredibly tough place for a visiting team to play at.

However, neither of the above-mentioned stadiums did not make the top three when talkSPORT presenter Adrian Durham, who has visited all 92 stadiums in England's top leagues, revealed his list.

Explaining the criteria for a hostile stadium, Durham said: "I think in terms of stadiums where you will get a hostile atmosphere, sometimes it's because of the game itself which is being played there.

"But actually, you know deep down, when you're going to a certain ground, that you could be set for an interesting afternoon or evening."

He added: "We're talking about flares going off, pyros, flags covering entire stands, the tifos that are made, and some of them are quite nasty.

"Thousands of ultras making life hell for the away team from the first whistle to the very last."

He went on to reveal that West Ham United's old ground, Upton Park, Burnley's Turf Moor and Millwall's Old Den as the top three stadiums with the most hostile atmosphere.

Explaining why the Old Den came out on top, Durham said: "With my number one, it's going to be another one that you can't go to. It's the Old Den - Millwall.

"Reason is because I went there once and I was in the away end with Posh fans and it was a midweek [game]. It was a Tuesday night and I've never been so delighted to lose 4-0. So happy to lose that game, it was intimidation and then some, no doubt about it."

Having been home to Millwall since 1910, the Old Den was eventually closed and demolished in 1993.

Millwall then moved to their newly-built stadium, The Den, which opened in August 1993.
