Found this site on my travels :
http://www.wewillfollow.co.uk/groundlogdaylist.aspxI've landed myself on page 17 with 39 grounds - I know some of you guys and dolls can do better
I think the 317 is way out of my League

I would have a few more on my total but they won't let you include clubs currently lower than "Conference" unless you pay them £10
So for example Barrow counts but Lancaster, Kendal etc. don't

You need to get the one on your facebook one as non league and foreign is counted as well as all the old grounds which no longer exist.
However places like Blakenall and Daisy Hill don't exist on it
for some reason i can't understand why not!

You may find Blakenall under Bloxwich town FC? Don't know about Daisy Hill but they were called Westhoughton Town at some point

When I was a young matelot based up at the Clyde Submarine Base I went to watch Dumbarton v Celtic.
The ground was inappropriately named
Boghead.
It should have been called
Bog.

I hate to think how many football grounds I have seen games on - hundreds! And by grounds I am only counting those that are enclosed, not park pitches.
I did pretty well all the senior non league grounds in the Devon, Cornwall and the Somerset area, loads when I lived in Kent in 1973 in the south east and London area, and since moving here, many, many more in the North West. That is without trips to Scotland, North East and indeed all over the country.

i,ve been to 78 league grounds, most of them watching Blackpool in the late 70's, early eighties. Oh the memories. Colchester on a Friday night and Torquay on a Sat. 7 30pm Kick Off. I don't know who's idea that was but it certainly wasn't for sky
