welcome to our groundhopping page
nothing beats travelling around the UK and beyond to visit new grounds and football clubs from all levels of the game.
be it standing next to one man and his dog behind a rope or in the middle of thousands on the terracing or a unique stand, the passion, ENTHUSIASM and commitment is the same.
meeting likeminded people, learning the history, sampling the food and beverages whilst watching the beautiful game,
it doesn't get much better than that!
