Where has everyone been ?

I'll share my list with you i've visited - Wembley (of course <IMG SRC="biggrin.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">) Arsenal, Villa, Barnsley, Birmingham, Blackburn, Bolton (Reebok only), Bradford, Bury, Charlton, Chelsea, Chesterfield, Colchester, Coventry, Crewe, Palace, Derby (old & new), Doncaster, Everton, Fulham, Grimsby, Huddersfield, Ipswich, Leeds, Leicester, Liverpool, Man City, Man U, Mansfield, Middlesborough (new only), Millwall, Newcastle, Norwich, Forest (of course), Notts county, Oxford (old), Portsmouth, Port Vale, Preston, QPR, Reading (old), Rotherham (well by staurday), Sheff utd, Sheff weds, Southampton (old), Southend, Stockport, Stoke (old & new), Sunderland (new), Swindon, Spurs, Tranmere, Walsall, West Brom, West Ham, Wimbledon, Wolves <IMG SRC="smile.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">

Most more than once, thats the first time i've ever listed them, its scary looking at them now, there are quite a few - wonder how much its all cost me ?

all to watch the super reds, i was going to do a 'what i think of' type thing but it would take to long <IMG SRC="frown.gif" border="0" ALT="icon"> i will however share my thoughts on any of the grounds with you, if you have one in particular, quire a few tales to tell, believe me <IMG SRC="wink.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">

i'd like to do all 92 at some point, but i really can't afford to swan around as well as follow the reds, perhaps when i'm a bit richer

oh nad i forgot the odd trip to europe as well, oh happy days

I've been to the City Ground about 5 times! not quite as impressive as everybodys elses tho, oh well suppose it's good seeing as i dont support Forest. I've actually been to the Pitch Diner there a few times aswell, nice food.

I'm from the wonderful Melton Mowbray! (oh well) My brother and dad support Forest so ocassionally I go with them, most of the games were against Man City, who my other brother supports. I used to love going to the Pitch, but I think you can only go on special days now. Hopefully 1 day I'll find someone to go and watch Liverpool at Filbert Street or their new ground 1 day, because I don't think Forest will be playing them in the near future! Sorry eb!

Villa Park loads of times
Aggborough - who plays there then? C'mon...
Stade De France - very impressive
Molineux - well worthy of the Prem

Planning a visit to Anfield and possibly Elland Road later in the year.
