After another completed season how is your 92 looking?

Mine is;

Premier League: 5/20
Arsenal - Emirates Stadium
Manchester United - Old Trafford
Southampton - St.Mary's
Chelsea - Stamford Bridge
Tottenham - White Hart Lane

Championship: 3/24
Ipswich - Portman Road
Leeds - Elland Road
Newcastle - St.James Park

League One: 5/24
Southend United - Roots Hall
Charlton - The Valley
Gillingham - Priestfield
Shrewsbury - Greenhous Meadow
AFC Wimbledon - Cherry Red Records Stadium

League Two: 6/24
Plymouth Argyle - Home Park
Luton Town - Kenilworth Road
Colchester United - Weston Homes Community Stadium
Wycombe - Adams Park
Morecambe - Globe Arena
Leyton Orient - Brisbane Road

19/92 - 20%

Some work to do but next year Orient will drop out. Looking at early leagues for next year, if the dates work then I would hope to do Peterborough, Northampton, MK Dons and if one of Stevenage or Cambridge come up, them. Will have to wait and see.

How about you?
 
Premier League: 6/20

Tottenham - White Hart Lane
Liverpool - Anfield
West Ham - London Stadium

Championship: 5/24
Ipswich - Portman Road
Norwich - Carrow Road
Burton Albion - Pirelli Stadium
Bristol City - Ashton Gate
Fulham - Craven Cottage

League One: 6/24
Southend United - Roots Hall
Charlton - The Valley
Gillingham - Priestfield
Bristol Rovers - Memorial Stadium
Oxford - Kassam Stadium
Swindon - County Ground

League Two: 2/24
Exeter City - St. James' Park
Colchester United - Weston Homes Community Stadium

19/92 - 20% - Same as Shrimper!

Could be moving abroad over the summer so hoping that I'll be able to tick some off early on in the season or over the holidays next season.

Those coming down from the Championship aren't particularly exciting, though Ewood Park would be a good one to go to. Been meaning to tick off Fratton Park too which will be good when they're back up, and wouldn't mind another trip to Exeter if they come up via the play-offs.
 
I'm hoping Scunthorpe stay down as I've been to all grounds in our division except Oldham. And I'm hoping Blackburn or Forest come down and Carlisle come up so I have four new grounds for next season (cue them all being on Tuesday nights!).
 
Out of interest does it count that I've been to the London Stadium for the Olympics rather than a football match?
 
Premier League: 9
Championship: 12
League 1: 11
League 2: 10

So 41 for me, not including Wet Spam. I've also only counted the ones I can remember, I dare say there's a fair few I can't.
 
Looking at my football ground map account, I've done 44 out of the current 92 in total:
Premiership - 10/20
Championship - 7/24 (have done all Brighton's old grounds but not the new one yet)
League 1 - 13/24
League 2 - 14/24

I've done all three of the bottom clubs in League 2, two of which will go down, but have done Lincoln, and three of the play off contenders so it might change, depending on who comes up!

I am looking forward to finally doing Portsmouth next season, and possibly Plymouth too, if dates work.
 
The only times I have been to the Prem' grounds is to watch Southend so they don't number many.

New grounds for me this season - Shrews, Coventry, Millwall, MK Dons (padded seats!), Charlton.
 
The only times I have been to the Prem' grounds is to watch Southend so they don't number many.

Same here, but did some of them when we were in the Championship, or they were much lower - e.g. Bournemouth and Watford.
 
Only got 12 to go in total.
It will be 11 if Newport depart the fourth tier.
However, two of the 12 are Blackburn and Forest: one of those coming down heralds a new trip.
Best ground? The Emirates; worst grounds: Wigan and Scunthorpe are soulless, and coming away from the DW at night, scary.
Hartlepool in February is colder than Iverness Caley Thistle if you sit in the stand opposite the North Sea at the Victoria Ground - it's higher than the stand opposite, and the briny is 50 yards beyond whipping up a bone chiller you won't forget.

Each to their own. Personally, I don't count the London Stadium (or the John Smith's, Huddersfield) as I have only visited those two for rugby league games.

My count is now at 50/92, taking in to account Orient's relegation. Back to 51 should Daggers or Aldershot come back up. Watford, Ipswich and Walsall my only new additions this season.

Premier League 11/20

Arsenal, Bournemouth, Chelsea, Crystal Palace, Everton, Liverpool, Man Utd, Southampton, Tottenham, Watford

Championship 11/24

Aston Villa, Barnsley, Birmingham, Brentford, Fulham, Ipswich, Leeds, Nottingham Forest, QPR, Reading, Wolves

League One 14/24

AFC Wimbledon, Bristol R, Charlton, Coventry, Gillingham, Millwall, MK, Northampton, Oxford, Peterborough, Sheff Utd, Swindon, Walsall

League Two 14/24

Barnet, Cambridge, Crawley, Cheltenham, Doncaster, Exeter, Grimsby (sob), Luton, Notts County, Plymouth, Portsmouth, Stevenage, Wycombe, Yeovil.

Incidentally, this site is fun for those who like this sort of thing...

No new grounds for me next season. I would get opportunity to go to St Andrews or Ewood Park with Southend though as only visited those with mates in younger days with other clubs (Arsenal, Brentford).. Blackpool would be another. Only been there to see St Mirren.
 
Hoping for Blackburn or Birmingham coming down and either Blackpool or Carlisle coming up via playoffs.
I'm up to 76, nearly all following the mighty Shrimpers. Bring on August!
 
Have done the stadium of ***** and Hillsborough as an escort for Mrs GYS and GYS Jun for Naarwicccccch but have not done them with the Shrimpers.

I'll check my map but I must be up to 50 grounds by now.
 
Watching Southend:

Premier: 12
Championship: 13
League One: 20
League Two: 14

So 59 however this does include old grounds and some teams have moved to new grounds, never sure whether this counts. Although haven't double counted where I have been to more than one ground for the same team.

Plus

Wembley
Millennium Stadium
Barking and Dagenham Stadium
Edgeley Park

For me next season looking to get to:

Home Park
Kassam Stadium
Ewood Park (assuming Blackburn go down)
New York Stadium
Stadium MK
Valley Parade

Arsenal
Chelsea
Crystal Palce
Everton
Leicester
Liverpool
Tottenham
