Fitba Daft

I came across this site trying to decide between seeing Queen of the South, St Mirren or Hamilton Accies (an all too common quandary at this time of year). And that, plus the fact that I had an assignment I really didn't want to start, got me thinking about how many different football grounds I've been to.

After some hurried scribbling down and crossing out on the back of an envelope, I came up with ninety-four grounds in seventeen different countries, including the Nou Camp in Barcelona, the Stadion NSK Olimpiyskiy in Kiev (capacity: 100,000 dodgy leather jackets), the old Wembley and seven World Cup stadiums in Japan and Korea (Suwon, Yokohama, Saitama, Seoul, Daejeon, Ulsan and Gwangju).

A full list might eventually follow.
