Glanford Park (so named due to its funding by the then-Glanford Borough Council) is a football ground in Scunthorpe, UK and the current home of Scunthorpe United.
Capacity 9,183 Opened 1988 Pitch Size 111 x 73 yards Glanford Park replaced the Old Showground, which was located towards the centre of the town but is now a Sainsbury’s supermarket. Glanford Park is located on the outskirts of the North Lincolnshire town, close to a motorway junction with the M181. It was the first time that a team had moved to a new, purpose-built stadium, and houses 8,600 fans (though it is rarely filled to capacity).
The ground has one terraced end (the Study United FC stand, though among supporters it is referred to as the “Doncaster (or just Donny) Road End”). The two long sides are all-seater (the Scunthorpe Telegraph and the Grove Wharf stands), and the other stand is all-seating for away supporters. The stadium has an electronic scoreboard.
