blueheaven Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 Not sure if this has been mentioned on here before, but if you're in to "groundhopping" then this is a fantastic website: http://www.footballgroundmap.com/It lets you keep track of all the football grounds you've been to in your life, and has a huge database of old and new ones. They'll also add grounds for you if you find any that are missing (weirdly, Luzern's ground wasn't included on there when Saints played them). Since I'm no longer in Scotland every weekend and can't make as many Saints games as I used to, I've got into this quite a lot and have now ticked off 85 grounds. My target is 100 by the end of next season. Anyone else got a total they're keeping track of? Mike 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie_Beatson Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 Surprisingly (to me anyway), I'm at 60, and I'm pretty certain I haven't listed everything yet! Although that figure is boosted by several Scottish junior grounds that are actually places I played when I was younger rather than actually going to watch the teams involved!

lethamsaintee Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 Got the Groundhopper App, which is great for keeping tabs and has a mahoosive list of games going back yonks that are easy to input.Think, according to that, I'm sitting on 96 grounds, but I've still to add a load of games from the 90's.

Grovesred Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 (edited) I wasn't aware of this, so thanks for posting it.Never thought of myself as a groundhopper, but it would seem I've racked up 126 grounds over the years.No wonder I never have any money.
