If Colchester get relegated and if both Cheltenham and Northampton fail to win promotion, I won't get to any new grounds next season. Apart from cup games.

What about if Brighton don't get promoted?
Never risked the trip to Millwall either.

May be the same game ?'79.
Wasn't it Bob Booker in the Cup replay on a snowy night in about 1991 where we were on an open end?
De Goey scored there in a 4-3 win on 22/9/79. Speight, Bourne and Butlin got the others.

That was April 1989 (APRIL would you believe) and it snowed like fuck.
It wasn't a cup replay and Booker won the penalty that won us the game.

Yes, that was my last match for a few years, I remember giving a couple of blade hitch hikers a lift to Swallownest.

I've only got Carlisle left in the current L1 if we stay down.
I don't count friendlies as part of my challenge for the 92, it's only league and cup games watching United so I'm 17 short at the minute (started in 2004 when I left school) :
Brighton
Carlisle
Port Vale
Rotherham
Cheltenham
Northampton
Bradford
Southend
Fleetwood
Morecambe
Accrington
Torquay
York
Dagenham & Redbridge
Barnet
Wimbledon
Aldershot
If anyone but Burton get promoted through the playoffs I'll have at least 4 to get to next season if we don't go up, and if Wrexham are promoted from the Conference I'd already be on 76.
As much as it's horrible being at this level, it's done my ground count no end of good!

With my pessimistic / realistic head on, I need Cheltenham to get promotion.
With my optimistic head on I need Brighton to fail to get promotion.
There's always the cups.
Off to Crewe for the first time in 20+ years, so it will t least feel like a new ground.

My options are (obviously ignoring any cup draws - see http://www.s24su.com/forum/index.php?threads/how-many-grounds.422/page-16 for my list):
We fail to be promoted - At absolute best, I get Cheltenham and Northampton in.
We get promoted - At absolute best, I get Brighton in.

Northampton is not a tick on my list, as I went to the county ground (?) on the day of the Hillsborough disaster - but a new stadium is sort of "half a tick"...

Doesn't count towards the 92 in my rules, unless I've been to the current stadium for a competitive game... One of the reasons I don't think I'll ever do it - not without us plummeting to league two anyway.

You need to lower your standards, something I learned in Cairo Jack's years ago......

Stevenage this season was my 91st Football Ground for either a League, FA Cup or League Cup Game.
I dont count Wembley, New Wembley or the Millenium as Grounds

Exactly they must be mental if they think we carnt and then if we beat Cruw and preston we will be showing off for contacts in play offs. Mighty morgan would have them revved up for play offs and we would do well if we played at wembley and if we won wed be promototed so it shows how much they all no.
