Much as I would love to go to the Falklands, not there. Arran is not that far away.

Fleetwood should be interesting as they along with Wimbledon turned us over at home, be good if you beat them, as it keeps open the last playoff spot, and there's about 8 teams think they can get it

Here is my list of all of the football grounds that I have actually watched at least one match in.
Sheffield United (Bramall Lane) Newcastle United (St James Park) Sunderland (Stadium Of Light) Middlesborough (Riverside) Manchester City (Maine Road) Manchester City (City of Manchester Stadium) Bolton Wanderers (Reebock) Manchester United (Old Trafford) Stockport County (Edgeley Park) Tranmere Rovers (Prenton Park) Burnley (Turf Moor) Preston North End (Deepdale) Bradford City (Valley Parade) Huddersfield Town (Galpharm Stadium, but was know as McAlpine when I went) Barnsley (Oakwell) Rotherham United (Millmoor) Doncaster Rovers (Belle Vue) Sheffield Wednesday (Hillsborough) Chesterfield (Saltergate) Hull City (KC Stadium) Grimsby Town (Blundell Park) Derby County (Pride Park) Burton Albion (Eton Park) Nottingham Forset (City Ground) Crewe Alex (Gresty Road) Stoke City (Britannia Stadium) Port Vale (Vale Park) Leicester (Walkers Stadium) Coventry City (Highfield Road) Coventry City (Ricoh Arena) Wolverhampton (Molineux) West Brom (Hawthorns) Walsall (Bescot) Ipswich Town (Portman Road) Rushden & Diamonds (Nene Park) Southampton (St Marys) Charton Athletic (The Valley) Arsenal (Highbury) Portsmouth (Fratton Park) Millenium Stadium (Cardiff) Watford (Vicarage Road) Wembley (old) Wembley (new) Fulham (Craven Cottage) West Ham (Upton Park) Dorchester (Avenue Stadium)
All off the grounds visited involved games with Sheffield United except The City of Manchester Stadium (Man City vs Fulham) and Dorchesters Avenue Stadium, which was a Conference game between Yeovil and Farnborough, when Yeovil were playing away from their normal ground due to re-developments.
I've been to Old Trafford twice but never seen Manachester United play, as both games were FA cup semi-finals, played on a neutral ground. Both Wembley games and the Millenium stadium game were to see play-off finals.
The games at Doncaster and Burton were pre-season friendlies.

I was interviewed for a programme at the BBC Television Centre today so I took the opportunity to wander up the road for a gander at Loftus Road. I think it's fair to say that Brighton will soon join the list of clubs with a better stadium than QPR.

It's one of the most uncomfortable I've ever watched a match in, and has dreadful facilities.

Blackpool Birmingham Blackburn Bolton Everton Manchester United West Ham Wolves
Barnsley Burnley Cardiff Coventry Crystal Palace Ipswich Leeds Middlesbrough Millwall Norwich Nottingham Forest Portsmouth Preston Reading QPR Scunthorpe Sheffield United Swansea Watford
Bristol Rovers Hartlepool Huddersfield Notts County Peterborough Plymouth Sheffield Wednesday Southampton Tranmere Walsall Yeovil
Bradford Burton Albion Crewe Port Vale Rotherham
Updated my list with new additiona in bold. There were four I've deleted as I've no recollection of seeing them, and no idea why I included them. With 5 added this season it puts it up to 43.
I may get a season ticket next season if I have some form of income as it's the same price as watching 14 games, if not I hope I'll be able to add Brighton, Derby, Leicester, Hull, Doncaster, Bristol City and if they come down, Wigan.

Updating my 'teams seen' list again - I saw the Arsenal-Man City game last season, but it was so terrible that I forgot! Only five Premier League teams left now, or six if Swansea come up. I went to six league games last season, so if the fixture dates are kind to me, I might complete the set...
Premier League (14 or 15): Arsenal, Blackburn, Bolton, Chelsea, Everton, Fulham, Man City, Man United, Newcastle, Norwich, Sunderland, Spurs, Wigan, Wolves
Championship (13 or 12): Barnsley, Birmingham, Blackpool, Brighton*, Bristol City*, Cardiff, Coventry, Derby, Hull, Ipswich, Middlesbrough, Reading, Southampton
League One (3): Charlton, Sheffield Utd*, Yeovil*
League Two (2): Oxford*, Wimbledon
Non-league (2): York*, Grays*
Foreign (13): Celtic, Rangers, Lyon, PSG, AC Milan, Inter Milan, Juventus, Real Madrid, Villarreal, Hamburg, AZ, Fenerbahçe, Shakhtar Donetsk
32/92 Total teams seen: 47
Premier League teams not seen (5): Aston Villa, Liverpool, QPR, Stoke, West Brom (I've seen Reading, but not Swansea)

The Ricoh Arena means I'm up to 31 league grounds, could really do with York, Lincoln or Mansfield being promoted from the Conference next season, and Barnet and Hereford getting relegated I've pencilled in a friendly at Bradford in the summer, as well as maybe Hull City, and I have mates who support Tranmere and Villa and we're going to go to games there as well, and that's just the start before the fixtures come out

Leeds Bradford Halifax Town Huddersfield Town Rotherham Brighton (Withdean & Goldstone Ground) Sheffield Utd
And of course Old Trafford will be added to that list after Sunday)

Just been to watch Hull City beat Liverpool 3-0 today, lovely stadium, and there were just under 21k in there today, good game, Liverpool looked poor, nice to see Downing and Adam get a run out, Hull looked very good, play like that every week, and they'll do well.
