How we picked
Field count and surface, floodlights, toilets, parking and the club setting set the order. The council's booking details and each ground's own page fill in what's left. Unconfirmed details show as a dash, which is different from a no, so a gap never counts against a ground. A thinly documented ground still gets a row, just no place among the picks.
