R.O.A.M Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Having discussed our away games for next year this got me thinking of the current 92 clubs I only have 8 left to complete the entire set of watching Latics in a competetive game (friendlies do not count in my eyes) I've only Burton, Aldershot, Daggers, Shrewsbury, Exeter, Morecambe, Darlington & Barnet left (I think) Obviously, we have lost clubs along the way like Luton this season but given I'm only 28 I'm quite pleased with that. Still if we got League 2 football like Dean wanted then I'd complete the set. P.s I count old grounds for example you've been Sunderland if you went to Roker Park but not Stadium of Light...

I've have 86 if only I wasn't in hospital with some mad german disease caught off my caught when we played Burton & I was too young for Exeter on a Tuesday.

burgerdarts Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 (edited) 67 for me. Frustrating or bad planning thing is that the majority of the grounds have been visited on more than one occasion. New ones for me next season: Exeter, Norwich, southampton, yeovil, and shrews or gills. I suspect if I do get there then I will be stuck on 91 as very much doubt MK Dongs is an option for me.

Although prob like many, there are a few of those visited on quite a few occasions. 87 for me at the moment. 88 with Exeter this year. The only oustanding grounds will be Aldershot, Dagenham & Redbridge, Barnet & Morecombe. Did Burton in the cup under Davros. Cheers, Harry. Edit.

johnafoafc Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Currently on 71, although a few of the grounds I've visited have been when I've been watching England, so not sure if they count. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaticsLegend Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 Ive got around 35, been to 46 grounds in total, can't be bothered counting at the moment who are in the league at the moment. I'm only 18, so im pretty happy with the figure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm only 18, so im pretty happy with the figure. I'm 32, been to 73 current FL grounds it should be a lot higher but there's a fair few places I've been to that are now in the Conference. On the subject of new grounds I'm looking forward to Exeter, Southampton and Charlton next season and the pre-season trip to Halifax, a ground strangely I have yet to frequent.

Frankly Mr Shankly Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 (edited) I think there's only about 3 or 4 grounds in the bottom division I've never seen us at. Aldershot, Barnet, Lincoln, Burton, Morecambe and Dag & Redbridge off top of my head anyway. Do I win? EDIT: Joint top with Harry on 87 seemingly.

Your "3 or 4 grounds" seems to be 6. Cheers, Harry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeP Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 54 watching Latics...bit disappointed with that, although there hasn't been a massive turnover of "new" teams in this division in the last 10 years. Have also been to Wrexham, Torquay, Mansfield, Cambridge, Dorchester (when we played Bournemouth there) and Thurrock! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leachy21 Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 58 for me with oldham! 66 including internationals and watching other teams! Long way to go for me then .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 (edited) I have seen 72 play at home but obviously some have built new grounds. I am missing some really strange ones such as Scunthorpe, was hoping to tick that one off next season It runs in the family, if you include teams that have been relegated then my father has seen 108 watching Oldham and Rochdale Edited May 24, 2009 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
