Old and New Grounds
« on: February 21, 2023, 04:19:30 PM »
Of which clubs have you visited both their old and current grounds.

For me it's just two so far: Reading and Southampton. London Stadium on the 12th will make West Ham #3

Since I stopped going regularly to matched during the 1980s I have not been to any of the 'new ' grounds at all.
I did however go to Eastville when we played Bristol Rovers in 1971 and in more recent years have been to a couple of Rovers' matches at the Mem. (Memorial Stadium).
