Knowing how footy fans like to tally up their grounds, I thought I'd share a decent site I stumbled across. It's by the same people who run the Facebook's (ask your kids Cricko) footballground app.
I also thought it would be nice to do something that wasn't related to Ron, or finance, or the new stadium.

It lets you tick off the grounds you have been to, give a review, a rating and leave pics if you wish. It then gives you a total, mine was 106, although a few of those were from following England as well as Southend.
It also gives you a tally for the 92. Although this tally only incorporates current grounds. For example it has me at 69, as it doesn't include Wigan (Springfield Park), Cardiff (Ninian Park), Hull (Boothferry Cr.) or Chesterfield (Saltergate) as I have only visited the historic grounds. I know some circles would have the tally at 73. Also means I will drop down to 68 (excluding relegations from the league as well) next year as brighton will be moving to their new stadium. Needless to say my biggest gap was the Premiershite.
It also provides you with a map, and this expands across the world, so my map shows the likes of Moscow, Berlin etc as well as the numerous English grounds. But anyone whose seen games as far as Oz, or the US can include these as well. It also goes down to quite a low level, include essex Senior, so you really can tick off any ground you've seen a game played at.
It's a good way to kill 15 minutes at work anyway, so thought I'd share and help relieve the boredom.
