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.

Highfield Road
The County Ground
The Manor Ground
Upton Park
Gay Meadow

I loved Gay Meadow, with the guy jumping in his coracle to get the balls out of the river...

(Dare I say the NHS? :shock:

)

There maybe more but off the top of my head.

Ayresome Park - Middlesbrough
Highbury - Arsenal
Highfield Road - Coventry City
Millmoor - Rotherham
Upton Park - West Ham
County Ground - Northampton
Hockey Stadium - MK Dons
Plough Lane - Wimbledon
Nininian Park - Cardiff City
Gay Meadow - Shrewsbury
The Den - Millwall

Nene Park was a favourite, Rushden and Diamonds.

Current English top four leagues, 42

Scotland, 3, which came as somewhat of a surprise.

Conference, 5

Non-league, 3

Grounds that no longer exist, 6

I'll never forget Elm Park.

The only ground where I've been ambushed by the home idiots and got a good kicking while the stewards looked on.

I'm on 50 exactly after AFC away, which considering I only started counting grounds in 13/14 is a decent achievement I feel (the large majority are with MK).
Defunct grounds for me are Upton Park and the NHS, really disappointed with the atmosphere at the former when I went, but I went with Hull so I guess that was why

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:

I saw Portsmouth was his 250th ground, incredible achievement but his poor bank account!
