Normally go to Wrexham home or away but we played in the FA trophy which is a bit of a mickey mouse cup really so used the opportunity to tick off another ground and went to Villa Park to watch Aston Villa v Stoke, did a bit of scouting of our Welsh lads, even saw a Joe Allen goal.

Went to watch Coventry v Luton after picking my brother up from uni. Soulless ground but I'd never been, so it was another one to tick off. I didn't fancy watching Wrexham in the FA Trophy.

I wouldn't like to guess how many as I've been to most of the grounds in the weksh league and many below that.
Probably only around 20 of the 92 English grounds and some of them would be the old grounds.
Only Ibrox in Scotland but had breakfast at parkhead If that counts lol

Did you, I was there, very hungover from a works do the day before. I didn't think we were great but seen several Cov fans say that we were the best team they've seen all season. What was your opinion? (Also, I have been their 3 times now and the ground feels worse every time)

Coventry were poor and should've had a goal awarded to them at 0-0 but after Luton scored their first they looked comfortable. I left after the 2nd mind as I had to park lightyears away. Very good away following from Luton too.

Saw it back on SSN and it looked JUST over, I was sitting on the halfway line and thought it had but I admit it's not the best view. Well deserved victory in the end though.

I guess that most people on this forum will be looking forward to getting out and watching (or even playing in) a match on Boxing Day. As I'll be staying in Aberystwyth over Christmas will go to watch the Welsh Prem match between Aber and Newtown which should be quite competitive with both teams fighting to finish in the top 6 when the league splits in January.

Love a bit of Boxing Day football, in fact I think the busy Xmas period is great and hope it never changes.
I'll be at Selhurst Park watching Cardiff.

Plane flight was cancelled for today from Gatwick with that damn drone. We might take in the Wrexham game tomorrow at Aldershot if the plane is still grounded.

Done about 70 league grounds over the last 40 years plus half a dozen shit ones in Scotland ( Berwick Rangers officially the worst!) although not many in the last 4 or 5 years.

Was up to 62 out of 92 teams at one point but haven't been to a Pompey away game in years - league cup game at Rodney Parade.
Would usually go to a game when back in Wales but haven't been able to due to a family member being injured.

Wrexham are at home to Solihull today. Hoping for another decent crowd, but more importantly a result.

Nah, it's down to it not being Boxing Day. Boxing day signals a bumper crowd for all reasonably sized crowds due to people coming back to see their families and taking in a game on the day, and most being off work. Also, 2 games between Christmas and New Year's Eve can be a bit much for some to justify cost-wise so those having to make the decision of which game to watch will most likely pick the Boxing Day fixture. 6220 is still very high for that level though, I'm proud of our town. A huge win too.

A huge win too. Huge crowd for Conference level. If Wrexham went up they would likely be in the top three for avg home attendances. www.worldfootball.net/attendance/eng-league-two-2018-2019/1/
