Walsall's Bescot Sadium might be the most well-known stadium in England, as pretty much every person in the country has driven past it on the M6 motorway right next to it at some point.
Villa Park and Molineux, 2 of the best traditional stadiums in the country. 4 massive seperate stands, none of this souless mega bowl so many big clubs build now. Villa Park used to stage FA Cup semi finals before FA decided to cash in and use Wembley. Ryan Giggs scored his wonder goal there in the replay against Arsenal in 1999. Just a fantastic looking stadium. And where's Solihull Moors FC?
Technically not in Birmingham. In the West Midlands but lies outside of Birmingham proper. Although the fact that others like it are included in the video does make me wonder too.
Only problem is that Wolverhampton and Walsall isn’t Birmingham, they don’t come under Birmingham and they are at least half an hour from Birmingham’s city centre.
He specifically says he's included stadiums within the wider West Midlands conurbation. Birmingham is the largest city within the urban sprawl that spreads out from the centre. Anywhere else this would be called Greater Birmingham.
@@TheBeeseven he even says “Birmingham has a lot of old stadiums” when introducing Molineux. And he hasn’t included all of the West Midlands because where is Coventry? In fact, Coventry’s stadium is even closer to Birmingham City Center than Molineux. Yes he has stated that there are some stadiums from other parts of the West Midlands. But someone who hears those words and doesn’t know where Wolverhampton is is gonna think it’s Birmingham when it is 100% not
@@kurbi7262 it makes no sense to include Wolverhampton but not Coventry, but Coventry actually has a few stadiums so that's probably why it wasn't included.
@@stevenhoughton1406 I did some research on this. There is West Midlands the region, West Midlands the county, and the West Midlands conurbation. The West Midlands conurbation includes Birmingham, Wolverhampton, and everything in between, which is a continuous urban area.
Birmingham may not have teams in either the basketball or ice hockey leagues, but it does have a team in the Premier Handball League (Birmingham Bisons), and a university side (Birmingham University) in the second division. However, with both resident school sports halls having a seating capacity of 0, they were never going to meet your 5,000 seat threshold.
If you do a Sheffield vid, please make an exception to your capacity rule to mention Sandygate. Thought to be the oldest still-used football stadium in the world.
Birmingham really has an impressive selection of stadiums.

I believe more people have seen it than any other football ground in the world.

Molineux 😂😂😂
10000 capacity cutoff
When I first saw the Bescot as a 10-year-old in the back of my parents car on the M6, I thought it was a non-league stadium
Some of the grounds sell a Chicken Balti pie. Which tastes amazing

@@Sir_GoofinatorCoventry isn't part of the conurbation, there is open country between it and the West Midlands conurbation.
Villa Park is a special ground - was great for FA Cup semi-finals and so glad it has been redeveloped in a way that has kept its identity.
This is great, as always!
Molyneux was my wife's favourite, I couldn't decide between Molyneux and Villa Park.
try telling someone from Wolverhampton or West Bromwich that their stadium is in Birmingham 😂
I'm dissapointed he didn't show Coventry's stadium aswell

West Bromwich is in Birmingham technically. It has a Birmingham postcode and a Birmingham telephone number.

he usually does things in the entire urban area, which seems like it includes wolverhampton as well as west brom

@@SteveBunce365 that would be a long video

@@valuetraveler2026 yes i guess its up to him
I like that one, "more money equals.....more money"
Should have called this video 'The Stadiums of the West Midlands' instead.
Wba stadium looks like a HMP from the outside
I feel like we're being kind of rickrolled.
great. haha you are funny
You missed the Perry Barr Stadium, which is in Birmingham!
Home of Greyhound racing and the Birmingham Brummies speedway team!

Prenton Park is going to win the best stadium in that video for sure!

Tinpot club, that's why 😂

Wolverhampton is a separate city to Birmingham you spam sandwich 😂
West Bromwich is not Birmingham.
Good for you but have you ever even looked at a map before??

Wolverhampton is 100% not Birmingham
West Bromwich has a Birmingham post code and a Birmingham telephone number.
@stevenhoughton1406 😅..Half the west & south midlands have a B postcode even some parts of Leicestershire..!!!
West brom and wolves and walsall is the black country not birmingham
I always like to include the entire metropolitan area. I mentioned in the intro that I was covering the entire West Midlands Conurbation.
@@TheWideWorldofStadiumsI understand it just gets black country people angry that's all
the slander against st andrews when it is arguably the best looking stadium on here 💀 + it’s the gil merrick
Is it fuck the best looking 😂😂
