all of the 92 in the football league and premiership. of all the grounds that have changed since end of war, the only new ones I hav'nt been to are Bolton, Leicester, brighton. man city, Cardiff, wigan, and barnet. Seen Carlisle play at another 22 grounds of teams not now in the league, a further 8 when we were in the conference, and 8 more non league in the cup. Of all the grounds for me the Arsenal Emirates is the best. Most comfortable M.K.Dons. Worst ones in the league Old Plough Lane (Wimbledon) and Tower Ground (New Brighton). With Barnet back in league will get to a new ground this season The Allianz has huge seats to be fair to it - that what MK Dons is like? |

Best I did was 95/96 I think it was did them all apart from last 2 away games and we got hammered in both of them. Should prob have done them in hindsight just so I could answer yes to a question like this. |

Your dead right. I'm not sure but I think I only did 9 matches last season. Either that or games were that spectacularly crap that I can't even remember them.

Based on last season:
PL 15
CH 13
L1 17
L2 15
60/92
I've done both Barnet and Bristol Rovers too so will gain two versus losing one (Tranmere)
New grounds that have taken ticks off my list are: Arsenal, Hull, Swansea, Brighton, Rotherham, Chesterfield, Scunthorpe, Northampton and Shrewsbury.

Dad used to go then mind and had a few mates who used to come for the away ones where we would stop at mates places with some being at Uni and that or just stay Sat night in a Hotel and come back Sunday, great times. Come across some fellas here who drive to every away match, couldn't be arsed with that but if you enjoy it then fair play. |

8 Premier League (plus 2 old grounds)
8 Championship (+4)
18 League 1
(+5)
9 League 2
(+2)
9 Conference
Also 11 other non-league grounds, 4 jock ones, and Wembley, Hampden, and The Millenium in Cardiff (which beats Wembley and Hampden by a mile IMHO).
Quite depressing to have been to 54 old and new grounds below the 2nd tier, and only 22 above. Special mention to Leeds Road and Underhill for being absolutely abysmal places. Millmoor wasn't great but the away end had good acoustics. Always quite liked Gay Meadow but that's probably more to do with Brian Wake than the facilities!
Once you're out of the habit it's hard to pick it up again. The combination of being 120 miles from BP, having 2 kids under 5, awful negative Abbott tactics and the idiotic board we have meant I pretty much ground to a halt. All that and ludicrous pricing means there's no way I'll do 20 this coming season.
Can't see many new ones on the horizon away from home. Never been to Newport, and Lime Street-Crewe, Crewe-Newport looks reasonable so may go for that, providing it isn't first weekend of Jan or whatever it was last season!

Done 6 seasons between 81/82/86/87 and can only remember maybe 15 matches that could be classed as entertaining but unlike today enjoyed every match day I must have had serious mental health issues back then |

I enjoyed them seasons. Great games at Derby (Poskett 4), Newcastle & Man City among one or two others but as you say some bad ones as well!

41 altogether including a few stadiums that no longer exist and have seen Carlisle at all of them. Barnet's new ground The Hive is not only not in Barnet, it's not even in the same county but is a nice little stadium and a splendid example of our future. I took my driving test around there.
