there may be some useful information in there.
I keep track of where I’ve been with this site https://www.footballgroundmap.
Sorry don’t know why the other thread hasn’t linked properly.
 
Visiting every clubs stadium in the English league.
Has anybody done it? I'm thinking about doing it with my son. I'm currently at 35 grounds but think I'll try and do them all with him.

Any tips or suggestions?
I'd love to one day being able to say I did it, but not too confident I'll realise it.

My list (also non league clubs) to this date is:
Everton
Man Utd
Man City (Maine Road & Etihad)
Arsenal
Spurs
Newcastle
West Ham
Palace
Fulham
Stoke
Aston Villa
West Brom
Southampton
Leicester
Chelsea

Wembley


Nottingham
Derby
Brentford
Brighton
Wolves
QPR
Blackburn
Millwall
Watford
Leeds
Shef Wed
Birmingham
Ipswich Town

Rochdale
Shef Utd
Crewe
Preston
Coventry City
Northampton Town

Bury
Tranmere
Cambridge
Southend United
Wycombe Wanderers
Carlisle United
Chesterfield

Wrexham
Kidderminster
Chester
Barnet (Underhill)
Stockport
Worcester
Altrincham
Nuneaton Town
Tamworth


Notts County
Crawley
Leyton Oriënt
Liverpool
Ebbsfleet United
Folkestone Invicta

The last six I've only been inside the ground, with no match going on. RS's one there was actually a match between Liverpool and Everton stewards going on.

That's an impressive list, I'm on 35 grounds, which does include some non league grounds now.

I think my favourite old ground used to be Coventry Cit's Highfield road.
Away fans behind the goal in an open terrace throwing snowballs with military precision at the adjoining home fans is a memory that'll stay with me forever. :D
 
im on about 80 odd,i need to do a road trip to complete it.
its mainly the grounds everton havent played at
southend
colchester
sutton
wimbledon (new)
wycombe
northampton.

iv started doing scottish and la liga,i think iv got ocd!
I keep thinking about midweek road trips to go to a couple of grounds that aren’t too far from each other , the West Country or East Anglia/Essex.
 

Can't wait for my first post covid groundhopping trip to the UK. Fortunately I live very close to the Belgian border, meaning it's about a 3 hours drive to Calais. From Folkestone there quite a few options available. Especially staying over for a night. No problem there, as very close 2nd behind English football culture, there's English pub culture.

Will probably be between Pompey and Luton for the next trip.
 
Lot of new ground to visit in the championship next season
Think I'm on 42 stadiums but that includes a few clubs like City, Wigan, Wembley...etc with 2 grounds.
I did that Grounds Map website, you on that?
 
I've done it. I qualified in 1991, with Notts County my last one. I deliberately left that until last, being the oldest League club. They put me in their programme for the day.

I decided to do it in 87 so it took me four years, from the half dozen or so I'd done by then. I still had my season ticket, but every week when Everton were away at a ground I'd been to already, I would take off somewhere else. Sometimes you'd be able to get two or three in one weekend. I swept up the Devon clubs over the Easter weekend - Torquay on Friday night, Exeter Saturday and Plymouth on the Monday. Nipped down to Lands End on the Sunday, nice weekend... I also did Cardiff on a Friday night then Swansea on the Saturday. Nowadays with so many more Sunday games it would be easier.

It's a great way to see the country and have some good nights out on the ale in different places, just used to get a cheap B and B. I had a mate who did about half of them with me but I did the rest on my own. I was single at the time and I loved it!

I kept up the new grounds for a while but not so much in recent times. Did a few Scottish ones as well, weekend breaks with the missus... Also done a few non league ones. Great hobby I'd say... Go for it!

I got in the local paper because I think I'll I was only the second or third person from St Helens at the time ('wool!!' ?) to qualify...

I love Lutons ground. Proper old school ground. A right mish mash of stands and awful access but great atmosphere. I think they've got permission to build a new stadium soon so get yourself over to experience Kenilworth before it's bulldozed. I live in Bedford just north of Luton so if you want to meet up I'm happy to go along with you.
