I've just counted them up, I've done 75 with Portsmouth, I only count grounds i've seen Portsmouth at.

Some of them don't exist anymore, of that 72 are in the Laegue (or old grounds of league clubs) Wembely and two in Europe The VW Arena, and Estádio D. Afonso Henriques.

Hoping to get to a few more this year.

Not bad by the age of 27!

EDIT: I'd forgotten Luton's ground so thats 76.

About 78 I think that are current league grounds. Approx 10 that were league grounds when I went but the club have since been relegated. Quite a few more that are no longer in existence, and about 15 abroad. Add in non-league grounds and it's nearing the 150 mark.

Got a full list at home.

[TheGayTent]

Do you have a favourite?

I've a mate who goes on ground hop weekends, gets load of non league ones in. I have two rather special non league ones. Hallam FC, the oldest 'ground' and where Sheffield FC play the 'Oldest Club'

[RobertProsineckisLighter]

The soon to be bulldozed forever Boleyn is my favourite - I will cry at our last game I know it.

Take WHU out of it and probably Maine Road is my favourite.

Abroad, the Westfalenstadion will take some beating.

Think there are 16 English league grounds I've done that (sadly in most cases) are no longer here:

Plough Lane

Roker Park

Goldstone ground

Victoria ground

Baseball ground

Burnden park

Manor ground

The dell

Filbert street

Maine road

Highfield road

Highbury

Millmoor

Ninian Park

Christie Park

Recreation ground

This isa good website.

I'd actually forgotten the non league grounds, that takes meu to 79.

[TheGayTent]

oo that reminds me, i'd forgotten another one. Grimsby... always a good chant when we go there oh "Cod Haddock, Mackeral Plaice, your grounds a fucking disgrace"

[RobertProsineckisLighter]

Been there too. That's another of the annoying grounds that I've been to that no longer count towards the 92. Along with about 10 others.

As much as I agree with promotion/relegation out if the conference it does make doing the 92 fucking hard !

[pink_triangle]

I havent done anywhere near as many away grounds as i would like, have very rarely ventured into southern england!

From memory

premiership - Man U, Man City (old stadiun), Liverpool, Everton, West ham, Wigan (old stadium)

championship - Cardiff (old stadium), Hull, palace, bolton forest, derby, birmingham, leeds, blackpool, hiddersfield, peterborough.

league 1 - doncaster, shrewsbury (old), oldham, bury

league 2 - rochdale

BSP and below - mansfield, kidderminster, luton, macclesfield, alfreton, lincoln, tamworth, chester, darlington

WPL - Rhyl, TNS

Worst ground - Darlington, completely souless stadium built by a crook, far too big and no atmosphere

Suarez looks off, although this new story is just rehashed quotes from yesterday's interview.

[strummer77]

Doesn't look like we'll be talking about Suarez, at LFC anyway, for much longer.

Surely even Liverpool fans must be pissed off at this "I blame the media" cobblers?

[thetime]

No suarez

No fergie bias from refs

No wonder mrefestivals has gone into semi retirement.

What the devil will people talk about? Maybe the actual football.

[pink_triangle]

Suarez is in the same boat as Bale in my opinion. They are amongst the best players in the world and deserve to be playing for the best teams and not the next group down. Looking at things from a pure footballing perspective both have given good service and will give their clubs a good payday.

[LondonTom]

Boleyn (Obviously ), The Valley, Emirates (Not for football though, so doesn't really count). Millennium Stadium, Wembley (Old and New) and Dean Court for me

Not many at all! I need to start doing away games next season i think!

[pink_triangle]

11 groundsu I think on that list that I haven't done. What a tosser George Reynolds is. Darlington don't even have a ground now.

[thegremlin_1999]

Filbert street and walkers/KP (Leicester), the Britannia, hillsbororough, old Trafford, both wembleys, city ground (forest) and keys park (home of the mighty hednesford town) for footy.

Also millennium, vicarage road, memorial ground (Bristol) and Enfield town FC for rugby.

Oh and the Ricoh and pride park for concerts!

Pretty poor list tbh!

[RobertProsineckisLighter]

oooo I forgot about Mansfield, went there for a Carling Cup game. Manuel Fernandes who was according to Peter Storrie our record signing scored... turns out he was only on loan. Another of Peter's amazing deals with 'Super agent'TM Pini Zahavi.

After that match a few hundred Mansfield yoof charged a load of Pompey fans... about thirty Pompey mooshes took a few steps forward and they legged it!

[pink_triangle]

If the rumours of Real offering 85 miilion for Bale are close to being true, I would snap their hand off. If the money was well spent it could transform the teams

[luckysalt]

I find it insane any player is worth £85m let alone Bale.

Would certainly give Spurs some big money to strengthen and get top 4.
