Yup great atmosphere too....

The old baseball ground was ace - saw norwich lose in a 1/4 final there in the mid-80s - the atmosphere helped by smaller tighter victorian grounds with character, where fans are packed close together on terraces...... The same fixture today at the souless identikit at whatever sponsor is lending their name to derbys stadium this season just wouldnt be the same. Safer, maybe, but still not the same. Take the norwich/1p5wich milk cup semis at poorman road and carrow road in 85 - i went to both legs - you just dont get atmospheres like that in the newer grounds imo.
