I used to like going to Butlin Road and doing Non-League too, Tony. I remember once VS were due to play at Bristol Rovers midweek, not sure why, and we went all the way down there and it was called off!

Possibly an FA cup game. VS used to come into the competition quite late based on past results I believe so they quite often got professional league opposition. I remember VS playing Brentford in the cup in the 88/89 season I think. I have a feeling that the Bristol game was called off following a pitch inspection. One half of the Butlin Road pitch always gets waterlogged alot worse than the other. A good ground for the level though. I doubt there's a better one in that league.

I'm up towards 60 now, some places I've done both the old and new stadium mind which would probably bring the total back down.

I've done 73 of the current 92, (mixture of old and new) with 3 since relegated and in national league.
There are a couple of shockingly obvious ones I've not been to - Stoke for example. I was out of the country for the cup run and had never been there previously. Just never got around to watching us at their new stadium either. I've met a couple of people over the years who have done 'the 92'. In the pursuit of achieving it they said, you will do well over 100. I'm sure one of them said he'd done just over 120.

Surprised at how few away grounds some of the guys on here have been to. Prefer away matches to home, and have started to go to a few neutral games each season (mainly non league). It becomes a bit of an obsession! 77 of the current 92 grounds visited. 115 grounds visited in total if you include old grounds and non league. Racked up 14 new grounds last season alone! My son, Simon, comes with me to most games and he is on 73/92 and a total of 94 grounds (I think) and he's only 25!! So, get on the road- you'll enjoy it!

Travelling away is superb, I might add though that I did a stack of mine in a company car or 5 over the years with petrol thrown in which helped !

Only home games I have been to are
Highfield Road
Ricoh Stadium.

Away from home I have gone to the
Estadio Gran Canaria

This season I have gone to the Estadio Gran Canaria
Got tickets for 6€

This season we will have R Madrid, A Madrid and Barcelona coming here,
season tickets are available for 215€, full price being 315€.
Packages for people abroad are cheaper as tourism is 30% or more.

Seems like Las Palmas can appreciate everyone , can you €

Sorry, I read the season ticket prices including away games. Hard when you don't speak Spanish or living out here Canarian (many words are different)

Does Sixfields count? Not that I ever went there!

I was never an "away follower", mainly due to work committments, but I've been to Anfield, West Brom, Gillingham, St Andrews and Villa Park. So I must be in the running for least away games done!

Pretty paltry list for me in terms of Football & Coventry.
Highfield Road
Ricoh

Stamford Bridge
Ewood Park
Sixfields
Derby (new)
Wolves (But that was for some conference, so does it even count?)
Wembley (old)

However I have moved away...

Christchurch Stadium (under its various sponsor names) before the earthquake made it fall over.
English Park (Christchurch football)
Waikato Stadium
Eden Park
Carrisbrooke (Dunedin) before it was redeveloped
Baypark stadium (Wellington Phoenix pre season friendly) Tauranga
