PurpleCanary 6,463 Posted November 25, 2023 The Guardian's David Squires has imagined his favourite composite football stadium, taking bits from all over the world. And Including, Number 6, top left, the crazy sloping terracing of The Nest: David Squires on … the ultimate fantasy football stadium in 50 favourite bits Our cartoonist asked his echo chamber to nominate their best-loved parts of grounds. The response was overwhelming and explains the liberties taken with scale and perspective Like what David does?

A K Narey 257 Posted November 25, 2023 David Squires is an excellent cartoonist and illustrator. I have his book, The Illustrated History of Football which is really funny and entertaining. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pugin 601 Posted November 25, 2023 He really should have included Great Yarmouth's historic Wellesley Road stand, arguably the most beautiful and significant stand in football 😞 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
