Scoring

theimps.tk Ground Guide Part 1

HOW THE SCORING WORKS

Please note that all scores are based on my own personal experiences and reflect the day as a whole, and not just the ground. That is why you'll see that Wembley and Walsall's Bescot Stadium have the same score. Wembley is by far the better stadium but Walsall a brilliant day out, hence both of them have the same score.

Here is a break down of how the scoring works individually.

Overall Ground Quality : This should be pretty self explanatory really. If you have a good ground (in my opinion) then you'll get a decent score, fi you don't then you won't.

Ease of getting there : This is purely based on how easy it is to get to from Lincoln. Also takes into account parking, distance from the train station or any other travel factors.

Atmosphere : Again, pretty straight forward

Programme : Was there some decent information in there? Was it a good read? Were there many adverts?

View of Action : Again, pretty straight forward.

Terrace Nutterage Factor or Leg Space : If on a terrace then how much are you restricted to celebrating sufficiently. Leg space is pretty easy to understand.

The "football" feeling : Does it feel like this stadium should have football played in it?

Friendliness of Home Supporters : Should be pretty simple to understand.

Quality of the game : How entertaining was the game I'm basing the review on?

Chances of Coming Here Again for a Random Game : If Lincoln aren't playing, what are the chances I will come here to see a game?
