Yeah loads with 2 (old ground / new ground) - more than 2 I was asking though? I know you were, I was commenting that there's loads of twos. At least threes, off the top of my head: Darlington Walsall Bristol Rovers Rotherham Sure there's more if we go way back. I think Darlington is 6 not including EP - Feethams, Darlington Arena, Bishop Auckland, Blackwell Meadows, Elland Road in an FA Cup 2nd replay, Maine Road in a Division 3 North Cup Final.

This is a good place to keep a record - www.footballgroundmap.com/I've not updated mine for a while, but last time I did it I was on 116. I think there was only a handful of new grounds I went to last season so it's probably 120 at most now. We're probably at an advantage to most other fans as we've been in so many divisions! I've done 41 of the current 92 league teams (42 at the start of 23/24 with the return of Wrexham) not counting any now (or still) in non league or those outside of England. The real question is, if a club moves to a new ground do you lose that tick until your next visit? If so i can probably knock 5 or 6 off my total. For me yes - it's about the ground not the club. I've done somewhere around 170-175. In 29 seasons. I'd done every ground in that season's NLN, NL, League 2, and Championship the last time we completed a season in each of those divisions. I've done 71 of the 92 plus 10 grounds that used to be used by current members of the 92. 3 I'm missing for League 2 in 2023-2024 are Franchise, Forest Green Rovers, and Morecambe (although I have been to their old ground, Christie Park). And all but 4 or 5 were done watching County. 🙂

As we've lost our " 2 year loan signing Paul Smyth" who was a very decent player for us , but was also a regular in the treatment room , its a solid Signing.
Advice to all players in the league
Dont do a Paul Smyth

Imagine those number @dave schofield Imagine County only losing 1 million a season Would be excellent, if it wasn't on top of previous £32million losses.

Imagine County only losing 1 million a season Would be excellent, if it wasn't on top of previous £32million losses. Fascinating interview with Ipswich Town’s CEO on The Price of Football Podcast out today discussing their promotion from League One to The Championship, the headlines (numbers) of which are; Average Attendance 30,000 (WU prices similar to ours, their STs a bit cheaper) Shirt Sales 50,000 (£4M in Club shop) Biggest iFollow views in the EFL (didn’t give £) Transfer Net Spend £Nil A hugely successful season Lost £10M Their prize..? The Championship, where the current average losses are £470,000.00 per club per week (£24.5M) Be careful what you wish for, you might just get it

I'd bet money on more clubs in the red at the end of the year than the green
