Not sure if this is of interest but for all you budding groundhoppers - If you are fed up with the current state of our mess and want to get away from it all, have the day free on Monday then you maybe should try this - http://www.theoldestfootballgroundintheworld.com/merchandise/ticket.php It is al...

These guys used to have at least one of the styles -

But showing out of stock, not sure if they will re-stock or that's it, all gone.

Here is another photo of the main stand at Holker St. They used to be a league club but dropped out in the 70's, this ground has been used for home matches for over 100 years now and they are currently in the Blue Square Premier. http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/2953/p1030515s.jpg Uploaded with Im...

The 92

So is there anyone on this board actively trying to complete/already have completed the 92? :happydance: I completed the 92 some time ago, My last one was Wycombe Wanderers in 1995/96 season. The only reason for this was that they hadn't been in the league long. Having said that, reading the above,...

Does anybody know when the potential replay would be? Our schedule is jam-packed as it is, so I really can't see where it could fit in. Unless, that is, the international meet-ups don't start until after Wednesday, 23rd March. I believe the West Brom league game would be postponed, so any replay wo...

What is getting my goat is that it starts on 5+. I have never missed a european away game and will be majorly pissed if i dont get one.

Gilles Grimandi would like to state that Radford149 really cracks him up and loves the way he gets to a lot of posters.

Gilles Grimandi is a W&G drinker and if he ever finds out who Radford149 is, will buy him a pint!

I spoke with MS from Sport Options while in Belgrade, he stated that he was thinking of doing a 1 night stop over in Donetsk but talking to a lot of the frequent travellers there didn't seem too much demand. So he was was thinking about just doing a day trip instead which would be priced at £279. C...

Chris, I am interested in your proposal, I have travelled to Europe alot over the last couple of decades and I can understand peoples scepticism. Especially with the collapse of companies such as UF Tours and Sportex leaving many a fan stranded for travel and financial loss on one occasion. Add this...
