Okay, here it is: my nemesis: the Abbey Stadium. This is the one which I'm least confident in being able to touch. From what I've seen, it's completely surrounded by a fence except for possibly on the South side, where to reach it would require wading across a stream and then through some private allotments. The first game here was in 1932. The capacity is 8127. Unusually, the record attendance, 14000, was for a friendly match: a game against Chelsea in 1970 to show off the new floodlights. I actually ended up watching a match from here on the television a few months ago, when fourth division Cambridge United got to play against top division Manchester United in an FA Cup match.
