    did you just type that?

    or have you had it saved somewhere... it's ace, I'm gonna look thru those later & see which ones I haven't done (and I reckon there could be some I've done you haven't). I'd take my hat off to you but I don't do hats. I'll raise my beer instead!

    RE: did you just type that?

    A few months ago there was a thread about it and I typed it then but I still had it saved - funny thing was on the original one I missed Swansea off (twice, Vetch Field and Cardiff) and missed the Ipswitch game at Wembley. so the number went up from 76 in that post to 79 now.

    Note several non league grounds and also that Man U is missing!

    Somewhere in a cellar in Germany I have the programmes from them all too as proof.
