At number 10 is the home of Ilkeston, it’s the New Manor Ground. The team play the 9th tier due to having liquidated twice in the last eight years. At that level the ground is fantastic but what is unique is the stand in the north east corner of the ground.
They have found themselves in a unique situation where the ground was pinned up against a road so they didn’t have much space for expansion on one side of the ground so they had to ram this small stand up in the north corner and was the only part of that side of the pitch that had enough space to build a stand. They have some offices on the bottom and seating at the top with the infamous clock tower.
9th) BUTTS PARK ARENA (Coventry United)

Butts Park Arena has one huge stand along the one side of the pitch holding 3,000 seats. Around the rest of the ground there is nothing going on. Coventry United share this ground with Coventry RFC.
8th) HARRY ABRAHAMS STADIUM (Wingate & Finchley)

Back in time to the style of the ground, this one is Wingate & Finchley. Nothing of this ground has been renovated in over 27 years and you can see that in their art-deco curved roof. The club were given dosh to develop the ground and upgrade, but the roof isn’t planned to be got rid of.
