Your Favourite BetVictor Isthmian Ground

For three years now we have been asking Isthmian League supporters to name their favourite away grounds, as part of our Supporters prediction series. We'll never get bored of hearing your tales of wonderful hospitality, and we're delighted to confirm that twenty two different destinations were named as favourites this time around- more than ever before.

We're not going to list all twenty two, but we thought we'd bring you the top five- and we'll do it, in time honoured tradition, in reverse order.

5th Place: Tooting & Mitcham United.

You spoke of the hospitality, and the ample parking, but the main topic of conversation where Imperial Fields was concerned was the food! Jamaican barbecue jerk chicken is apparently compulsory.

4th Place: Aveley

Parkside was highly rated for its fabulous facilities, and the fact that you don't have to struggle to find a parking space. And it didn't seem to matter whether Aveley or Grays Athletic were your hosts, you liked it just the same.

3rd Place: Bury Town

Your love for Ram Meadow is mainly about its history. "A fabulous old ground," was the usual remark, "with a great atmosphere," It is, and it has!

Runners Up: AFC Sudbury.

The King's Marsh Stadium was far and away your favourite North Division ground, and whilst you found it aesthetically pleasing and were delighted by the facilities, those weren't the prime reasons for your votes. Time and again you spoke of the warm welcome and the friendly atmosphere, and it's quite clear that whatever the Yellows are doing to make visiting fans feel at home, they are remarkably good at it- and that it is greatly appreciated.

Winners: Lewes.

Lewes recently won the Football Supporters Association Away Day of the Season Award for the whole of Step Three, so it's no surprise that they win our poll for the third year in succession. So many of our supporters wax lyrical about a visit to the Dripping Pan that it seems to almost be taking on mythical status- even some people who haven't yet visited tried to name it their favourite ground! We discounted those votes, but it really didn't make any difference to the outcome.

Congratulations to the Rooks, once again!
