Ainslie Park is a modern ground with scope for improvement and the ground itself is part of a facility used by the entire Spartans community, you have two seated stands, the main stand and the one across from it which only runs half the length of the pitch. You can choose to stand on the grass embankment that surrounds the remainder of the pitch if having a seat isn’t your cup of tea which is great when you consider some other stadiums in League 2 have just one stand and no access to other side

There's always a warm welcome at the normal football clubs in Scotland but this one is particularly welcoming with every club official/ employee charming. The club runs a vast array of different teams and clearly part of the community. Ground is modern with 2 seated stands but no covered standing. Food on offer is good and properly priced and they play on plastic so one to keep in mind for the bad weather days. They have the right approach to football , you will enjoy a visit

There is a Morrisons store some 500yds up the road which is handy for a pre match all day breakfast. I left the car there as I wasn't sure how busy the car park would be at the stadium. Turned out to be a good shout although you can only park there for two hours max.
Ainslie Park is a well maintained basic affair with two seated areas which have a combined total of 500 seats. Standing area at three sides of the 3G artificial pitch.
