| How Many English Football League Grounds Have You Been To 11:28 - Mar 31 with 5749 views | SaintNick |
This was something mentioned by HedgeEnd Saint in a recent thread,
He had been to 110 and I reckon I have been to 128.
The criteria is that they have had to be the home of "English" League football, so no Scottish or foreign clubs.
It is the ground not the club, so if you have been to the Dell & St Mary's, then that is 2 points, Bristol Rovers you could get 3 points, Eastville, Twerton Park (Bath City) & current home the Memorial ground.
It is the ground not how many play on it, so if you went to Gillingham a couple of years ago to see Saints, you can only get 1 point, not 2 if you also saw Brighton play there when they resided in Kent.

You’d love the new Everton ground, the pubs near the stadium are starting to take off now. We go to The Ten Street Social Club, it’s massive and dead easy to get served (£5 a pint too). 25 mins walk and you’re back in town. |  | | |

A Scottish mate of mine has gone to watch their game there tonight. Advised him to go to Rigby's to break up the journey, and he messaged me saying he was happy with that choice. He has just sent a pic comparing the concourse with the old concourse in the away end at Goodison |  | | |

I got taken to Easter Road once ( way back when ). Wasn't sure what to expect but was glad I went.
Considering Edinburgh is meant to be the posh side of the country, the locals cranked up the noise and we enjoyed a full day of good craic. |
Not sure on how many did the 92 in 70sand80s not done many of the new stadiums got married in the 80s so that curtailed my away grounds also Easter road is one my favourite grounds saw saints play there | | | |

Of the current 92 I havent been to
Lincoln ( I have been outside it but not in it so doesnt count)
AFC Wimbledon ( Went to Plough Lane)
Burton Albion
Bromley
Salford City
Chesterfield (Again been outside looked in but not inside)
Barnet ( Been to their old ground)
Fleetwood
Shrewsbury (Been to old ground)
Crawley
Barrow
Harrogate (Driven past it didnt stop)
So thats 12 to go.
Of the top 7 teams in the National League I have been to 4 of them, missing York ( Been to old ground) Boreham Wood & Forest Green so a good chance i might get up to 81 or 82 without visiting another club | |

Blimey 1951, was not going to away games since 1980's part of a pre-nup you signed when you got married to your loved one ?
Back to thread - I have only been to 32. This includes clubs who moved to new grounds (Man City, Colchester, Arsenal, West Ham, Spurs, Brighton).
Worst - Layer Road, Colchester, West Ham (New), Southend and Dagenham
Ground I was most pleasantly surprised - MK Dons.
Would love to go to more since retiring, but so hard to get tickets.
