BoppinBruce Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 I am a Luton Town supporter. I spent my childhood and youth there so I still feel part of the club. In the 70s the Hatters went from the old Div 4 to Div 1 and back to Div 4 in 9 seasons. I went to every away game and taking into account cup matches I stood on every ground and not only that, I stood on every ground and watched my team play. Of course there are new teams now and new grounds I have not visited but in those 10 years I could say that I had done that. Can anybody, no matter what sport, boast anything similar?

scottf Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Yes there is a special club called the 92 club for people just like yourself- did you save all your ticket stubs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopman Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Best I can do is 42 grounds to see football. Better make that 43 (Zounds! I thought I'd forgotten that trip to Port Vale!). I think there's a website with pictures of football grounds - possibly "homes of football dot something". Last time I looked, I was on one of his pictures. I'd forgotten Springfield Park... 44! Pause while I check on the pools coupon. Which team play at "No publicity requested"? There's one for your quiz questions, Bopp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt1889 Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Been doing the same watching Sheff Utd, and its quality mate!!! What an achievement mate!!!!!! What would you class as you worst and best???? Worst:- Millmoor - Rotherham United - Shocking ground with no proper food or toilet facilities!!! Best:- Millenium stadium - What a ground, everything is spot on, the only grumble i could have is the prices inside!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopman Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Can I add a couple more: Selhurst Park (is that 1 or 2?) and Plough Lane. 46. And one abroad (no, not Cardiff or Wrexham). 47. I've included the ground where I walked off the pitch carrying the Cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWFC00 Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 I've gone from watching the mighty Owls in the Premiership, down to League 1 (as it's called now). Visited about 50 league grounds so far. Although the money I spend has got me into some sh*t with my g/f.... Best ground: Old Trafford - superb! Worst ground: Saltergate - non-league standard Check out this website http://www.footballgroundguide.co.uk/[/url] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happyhippy Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Well, for what it's worth ...... Best - Molineaux, if you ignore most of the 'fans'. Worst - Belle Vue, if ever a ground were misnamed it's that pit. Coldest - Victoria Ground, Hartlepool, Arctic doesn't get close Prettiest - Gay Meadow, sorry, but if nothing else Shrewsbury is a great place to get hammered! Most disappointing - Old Trafford, I have never liked that monolith Most impressive newcomer - Reebok Stadium, Jesus leg room on the away end! Most bizarre - Hampden Park, Queen's Park v Cowdenbeath in front of a few old men and a dog ...... and me ....... in a stadium which once held 130000 odd for a match umpteen years ago .....

SWFC00 Posted October 9, 2005 Share Posted October 9, 2005 Hallam's a nice little ground... I actually prefer non league grounds to "League grounds" purely for the rawness and the "true" fans! You've not been to a Football match until you've stood on a terrace in the middle of January with one man & his dog, watching two non-league sides busting a gut for 90 minutes Been to: Accrington Stanley - Crown Ground Hallam FC - Sandygate Road Sheffield FC - Coach & Horses Boston United - York Street (Whilst they were in the conference) York City - Bootham Crescent Stocksbridge Park Steels - Bracken Moor Skegness Town - ??? I've been to more but they escape me right now. Go support your local non-league club!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
