Worst "changing rooms" are at Motherwell Miners park.  A toilet and a cold tap I think is all that's there.  John Hastie parks in Strathaven are poor as well, we used to play our home games there with Ballerup on a Sunday and had to get changed in the sports centre and walk down.  Used to be cracking pitches to be fair.

30 years since as a 17 year old I played in a Scottish amateur cup qtr final for Strathkinness at Dumbarton academy fp.
You know when you go in a cow field where they eat with the 6 inch deep hoof prints in the grass and mud.
They must have moved the cows that day.

Showing my age but Ballantrae when they had a team. Stood at bottom left corner flag and couldn't see top right one pitch ran at such a diagonal! Was that windy I saw a few times keepers goal kicks blowing back over own crossbar for a corner it was ridiculous at times!!

Ha ha, what a slope that was on that park. Beith Jnrs and Cambusbarron don't have a look in.
If a Ballantrae game would ever be put off for the park being flooded then the world is in trouble.

Parks outside Auchenharvie Academy in Saltcoats were particularly bad in the winter, especially playing Sunday afternoon and being the 2nd/3rd or 4th game on said park across the weekend.

You could lose your boots the muck was that deep.
