Which music videos have been filmed at football stadiums?

“I’ve just discovered that Slade’s 1978 single, Give Us a Goal (it flopped), had a video filmed at Brighton’s Goldstone Ground. What other music videos have been filmed at football stadiums?” tweets Phil Withall.

We’ve ignored official club songs, for obvious reasons, so let’s proceed directly to what was, by some distance, the most popular answer in our inbox. “My local band in Prestwich, the Fall, filmed the video for their single Kicker Conspiracy at Burnley’s Turf Moor,” writes Michael Mand. “It ends with the legend, ‘filmed in Burnley’.”

Mark E Smith was a Manchester City fan, so if anyone knows how the Fall ended up at Turf Moor, do let us know. In the video, he puts the football world to rights – “Under marble [Bert] Millichip/the FA broods/how flair can be punished” – from various points within the ground. It’s quite a time capsule, with everything from barbed-wire fencing to adverts for Stones Best Bitter.

Here’s what Smith had to say about the song in a When Saturday Comes interview:

You couldn’t mention football in the rock world then. We were on Rough Trade and I told them ‘this is about football violence’ and it was all: ‘You don’t go to football, do you?’ I remember Melody Maker saying: ‘Mark Smith’s obviously got writer’s block having to write about football.’ About five years later, the same guy reviewed something else saying it was a load of rubbish and ‘nowhere near the heights of Kicker Conspiracy’. And now, of course, all the old music hacks are sat in the directors’ box with Oasis.”

Some of the video for Victoria, the Fall’s Kinks cover, was also filmed at a football ground. We’re not entirely sure where, but one of the many Fall resources on the internet suggests it was at the Surrey Docks Stadium,
