I thought one of the joys of going to see football games, was the aroma of stale piss floating by the food outlets.

Also worrying whether your shoes were soaking up a multitude of delights.

Years ago I remember West Hams being really grim. And a couple of years ago going to Portsmouth was like stepping back in time and pissing against a brick wall.

One of my first memorys of Villa Park in the late 80s was seeing someone pissing in a sink,put me off washing my hands for years.

If it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you.

Meadow Lane had some atrocious portaloos in the early 80's. A wee in a shit filled bucket anyone?

Bristol Rovers had a pile of sand against one of the walls of the main stand in the 70's

I was always fascinated by the way in which you'd be queuing up outside to get in at some grounds and the piss streams would be flowing out of the ground onto the pavement. Wimbledon's Plough Lane really sticks in the memory in this regard. The bogs at the Hawthorns and the Sty were absolutely terrible as well - how appropriate.

Before the Leeds cup final there was a bloke trying to take a shit in a McDonalds sink, I don't know if he managed it, I left hurriedly.

It did however get the soles on my trainers all nice and clean

I seem to recall the toilets at the back of the away terrace at Swindon Town being especially grim and the waft of piss as you queued for the half time pie was enough to make your eyes water

"Waft of piss" - what an evocative phrase!

Bolton's old Burnden Park were by far and away the worst toilets I've ever visited.

Although fiction, I always remember Oz in Auf Wiedersehen Pet saying 'I was at villa park one year and someone pissed in me pocket'.

I've seen blokes pissing in the sink at away games when the urinals weren't even occupied.  And I'm not joking.
