How many for you.

It's 3 for me. Doncaster (no I didn't go to the game where we took over 4000), Harrogate and Salford.

I did actually go to Sutton years ago, when I was in London and looking for my Saturday footy fix. I remember that they won 3-0 but no idea who it was they were playing against.

I wasn't sure about that one. Is it a new ground or is it just the old Plough Lane that's been done up?

Oh, and Barrow will be freezing, whatever time of the year we go!

Are Salford moving into the AJ Bell Stadium (rugby ground next to the Trafford Centre) or is that not until next year? Seems a bizarre move given their already dismal crowds.

It’s still on Plough Lane, but on the site of the old greyhound track rather than the old football ground. It’s unarguably a ‘new’ stadium.

Shite location - nowhere to park, poor for public transport, no pubs...I went there to watch Sale v Leicester, took us ages to get a bus back to where we parked.

Plough Lane will sell out straight away - be a massive nostalgia trip for 1989. Fortunately, I have a friend who lives there - so in the home end

It’ll be even shíter with 1,100 Salford fans rattling around in its 12,000 seats on a cold Tuesday night at home to Sutton. Poorer fan to seat ratios than Darlo at the Arena, and anyone who’s been there knows how awful an atmosphere it was there.

I’m really not sure what the long-term ambition is with Salford. They’ll never be self-sustainable.

I’ve got oodles of new ground opportunities.

Gillingham
Wimbledon
Sutton
Leyton Orient
Northampton
Colchester
Barrow
Carlisle
Swindon

Hope to get half of those knocked off.
