The toilets at the Vic were hideous and smelt like a Wetherspoons Funny that you should mention Wetherspoons McMuffin. West Somerset had torrential rain and flash flooding this week. The Wetherspoons Pub in Taunton, (The Perkin Warbeck) was inundated with water and severely flooded. I hear that it caused 150 thousand pounds of improvements.

I went to one in Bedford a few weeks back...I actually stayed there as a friend lives nearby. Was nice being the first person in a Wetherspoons in the morning, was like achieving a goal as by 11 was like a pee stained track suit bottom convention.

Go to Barnsley's West Stand Bogs to see how stringent the rules are around toilet standards I can't remember whether it was Halifax town away or Chesterfield that had outdoor bogs just like this? I do quite like the rustic look but that's a bit too far 😅 Edit. Could well have been Wigan's old dump of a ground maybe... Burnley... pre 1992

I thought this was chesterfields old ground, Blackburns old away end used to have the terraced houses overlooking their outside bogs.

Worst toilets I’ve experienced were those at the back of the away end of Colchester’s old ground.

General theme on this thread appears to be that there used to be - and there definitely were lots of appalling toilet facilities at grounds all of which have long gone replaced by new stadia, new stands or properly upgraded old stands.
All except one...

If I'm not mistaken weren't the toilets at Shrewsburys old ground at the top of the terraces and you could watch the game whilst relieving oneself? Positive it was Shrewsbury but age might be warping my memory.

Surely that's an Artists impression of the new fans communal shower facility at Vale Park?

Remember when we played MK Don's at the Milton Keynes Hockey Stadium and we were afforded portacabin toilets to wazz in. However it had conveniently positioned top slanted windows so you didn't miss any of the action as was relieving ones self!
I'm sure we had about 3x trips to that hockey stadium & temporarily installed stands within a very short space of time. Sure we played them in the league and cup (with a possible replay?!) All very close together.. Got bored of the walk from the train station to the ground, so bland Milton Keynes is.

Probably the funniest chant by opposition supporters I heard was at the mk Dons cup game. A couple of stoke female supporters got kicked out and as they were going the Dons fans sang, “ bye bye bye Delilah.” Made me laugh anyway.

Open toilet in the bottom left corner at Chesterfield if I remember right.

If I remember correctly wasn’t it weird and below the level of the pitch or something And didn’t Brentford have a shit pisser as well ?

When I think back to some of the grounds toilets I've pissed in you wouldn't let your dog go for a piss in them 😅
