Looking forward to a new ground for me, tomorrow - I guess that makes it about 50 or so though have never really counted. There will be many on here, who count and/or have been to more, presumably?

Just counted but fewer - my total is the round 40

Currently not travelling much due to being at that stage of the family cycle thang, but one of my oldest bucket list goals is to visit all of the league grounds before I eventually get subbed off to the great bench in the sky

:D

Can't be totally accurate, but I reckon I've been to around 40-45 grounds over the years, I have been to Saturdays opponents Pompey before, great place with a real football atmosphere, I was there once when Arsenal were leading 0-5 in a FA cup tie and the Pompey fans just kept singing and ringing their bells, unbelievable support.

Done Portsmouth already, so still on 84 for now.
Plus another 13 non-league grounds, makes it 97 in total for me so far :)

How many now-defunct league grounds has everyone been to?
The ones that can't be collected any more like Upton Park and Plough Lane.

Saltergate, Chesterfield is now replaced with houses. The road the houses are built on is called Spire Heights which is a nice touch.

They filmed That Damned United there.

I’m on about 120 worldwide.

I thought that was decent until I met Danno! On average he does four or five new grounds a week! Dunno what he’ll do when he has completed Britain! :lol:
