Title: ??/92?? Post by: westcountry on Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 12:46:09 How many of the 92 Football League Grounds have each of you been to and watched a match?
Mines 37, with 32 of those watching Swindon. I was talking to someone from Calne about what Grounds he has been to, He only hasn't been to Morecambe and Burton Albian. :eek: Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: Spencer_White on Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 12:48:09 Only current grounds count. Fact.
60. I went to the old grounds at Arsenal, Cardiff, Doncaster, Colchester and Shrewbury. But as I said, they are history. Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: Talk Talk on Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 12:53:24 19. Which quite surprised me seeing as I haven't been following Swindon/interested in football for very long.
Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: STFC_Gazza on Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 13:05:35 63 all together!
Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: Cookie on Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 13:13:01 A rather pitiful 17.
I did go to some old ones, Twerton Park, Elm Park and whatever Coventry used to play in. Edit: he he, forgot that o*ford don't count :-[ Title: Re: ??/92??

Post by: Simon Pieman on Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 13:20:57 I knew it wasn't very many...16. Almost forgot to include the County Ground.
Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: Spencer_White on Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 14:30:25 Only current grounds count, and you must have seen a football game there. Concerts dont count!
Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: Rustle on Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 14:38:56 76 including the likes of the old grounds in the past like
Roker Park Ayresome park The Manor Ground Eastville The Dell Burnden Park Vetch Field Cold Blow lane (the old den) Im sure there are a few more.. Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: Samdy Gray on Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 14:41:18 36 of current grounds.
Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: Red Frog on Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 14:42:58 39, plus another 10 former grounds and 8 ex-FL. Not bad for someone who's lived out of the country for 25 years. :)
Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: Sippo on Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 15:05:03 About 26 in this country. All with Swindon. Loads of old grounds/non-league grounds I've been to but they don't count.
Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: blah blah on Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 15:16:32 Think its 29 in this country + another 6 old grounds and a couple of non-league.
Most of mine were in the Premier season and the seasons either side of it. Not because I'm a glory seeking part timer, but that was when I had a bit of money and no kids. Honest. Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: donkey on Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 15:34:32 65, plus the old grounds of Brighton, Bristol Rovers (Twerton), Arsenal, Man City, Millwall, Milton Keynes (for shame), Colchester, Reading, Rotherham, Shrewsbury, Bolton, Leicester, Doncaster, Coventry and Derby. Also been to Kilmarnock, Histon, Moor Green, Wembly (old and new), Millenium and played at Leatherhead's ground (living the dream).
Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: herthab on Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 15:41:43 77. Of those 5 are no longer with us.
Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: Simon Pieman on Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 15:48:35 I forgot Sincil Bank too, make that 17. There are probably more I've forgotten about, not to worry.
Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: Samdy Gray on Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 15:51:51 There are probably more I've forgotten about, not to worry. Drinking at football can have that affect. Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: Bogus Dave on Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 17:53:24 17 of the current 92
Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: singingiiiffy on Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 18:19:40 30 of the current 92 and 10+ old/former football league. i have no desire to visit the majority of whats left its usually the same every season.
Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: Peter Venkman on Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 18:28:39 66 of the current crop of grounds but if you are counting older grounds and ground of defunct (non league now) teams I think it nearer 79 or 80.
Most of the new ones I havent actually been to, back in 89 I had visited 75 of the 92 but lost interest in the 92 club. Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: Don Rogers Shop on Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 18:32:17 83 as it stands but that includes old dtadiums like Boltons.
Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: Whits on Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 19:02:22 64 current grounds
Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: Luci on Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 19:07:54 I use that Facebook app to track and its 44 but I know quite a few of those are non league.
I'd probably say around 35 current grounds Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: Whits on Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 19:12:34 88 grounds including a few foreign ones and ones that are no longer in use

Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: jonny72 on Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 21:43:02 I've been to 21 current and 8 old.
Funny thing, I made a list of all the grounds I've been to on my phone a while back and just realised that there was one I forgot to put down. No prizes for guessing which ground it was.... Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: bobby on Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 21:46:52 35 for me, would of been 37 but i have travelled to Port Vale and Rochdale in recent years only for matches to be called off when i got there!
Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: westcountry on Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 21:53:19 I've been to 21 current and 8 old. Funny thing, I made a list of all the grounds I've been to on my phone a while back and just realised that there was one I forgot to put down. No prizes for guessing which ground it was.... County Ground ;) Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: Posh Red on Tuesday, January 5, 2010, 23:06:09 I've been to 78 (50 current league grounds, 19 old grounds & 9 that are now non league.)
Haven't included Wembley (old & new) or any foreign grounds Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: Arriba on Wednesday, January 6, 2010, 01:10:08 i've only counted clubs current grounds.
25. edit. forgot port vale. 26. Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: flammableBen on Wednesday, January 6, 2010, 01:14:40 Every time I try and count I end up forgetting obvious ones.
20 ish I think. Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: NZrobin on Wednesday, January 6, 2010, 10:20:00 Can't see anybody comment that they went to Italy for the Anglo Italian cup in 70/71....
I know you were there cos I was !!!! Turin, Naples...etc Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: reeves4england on Wednesday, January 6, 2010, 11:22:12 I've been to 36 of the current 92, not bad for a 20-year-old...
Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: donkey on Thursday, January 7, 2010, 19:42:13 Can't see anybody comment that they went to Italy for the Anglo Italian cup in 70/71.... I know you were there cos I was !!!! Turin, Naples...etc Good work. My only foreign grounds are the Meadowlans in New York/New Jersy and the Ta'Quali (sp?) Stadium in Malta. Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: Rich Pullen on Thursday, January 7, 2010, 19:46:58 Only non-British ground I've been to for matches are Camp Nou, Gillette Stadium and Hannover 96's Niedersachsenstadion.
Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: Bob's Orange on Thursday, January 7, 2010, 20:10:20 non-British grounds. About 8 or so in Luxembourg. Also Metz, Nou Camp, Bernabau, PSV Eindhoven and Tampa Bay.
Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: 4D on Thursday, January 7, 2010, 22:02:26 The San Siro was fun
Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: Sippo on Thursday, January 7, 2010, 22:26:51 I've been to see games in Amsterdam (Ajax), Lithuania (fc Vilnius), Apoel Nicosia, apoel Limassol, about 7 grounds in portugal. The atmosphere in games abroad are totally different.
Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: donkey on Thursday, January 7, 2010, 22:34:07 Oh yeah and the Olympiastadion in Berlin.
Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: Sippo on Thursday, January 7, 2010, 22:35:57 I've been to that ground but not to a match.
Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: land_of_bo on Friday, January 8, 2010, 09:19:24 31
plus 5 that are now in the conference Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: herthab on Friday, January 8, 2010, 09:26:01 77. Of those 5 are no longer with us. Had a look on my Facebook list last night and realised I'd greatly under estimated the amount of grounds I'd been to that were either no longer there, or that had fallen out of the League. 59 current league grounds visited. Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: Anteater on Friday, January 8, 2010, 13:12:17 54 current plus new Wembley - 9 old plus old Wembley
and a handful abroad ! Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: RedRag on Saturday, January 9, 2010, 18:03:49 It was once about 49 all supporting STFC but I expect it is now well down on that.
I think it was about 3 years ago when we played at Barnet that we became the only team in the Football League to have played at all the other 91 league grounds? Just carry on supporting the Reds if you want to do the 92 grounds. Title: Re: ??/92?? Post by: chalkies_shorts on Sunday, January 10, 2010, 00:10:16 47 current grounds - 17 old grounds plus a few of both old and new- the old and new Wembley. Plus I've been to a few shitty non league groundsl ike the old and new Scumholes, Newport, York, Cambridge etc. I'm not counting Wimbedons Plough Lane against the Franchise Scum.
