Where is everyone off to tomorrow? (Weather permitting!) I'm pretty certain our FA Vase game at North Shields v West Didsbury & Chorlton will be postponed, so the backup plan is Sunderland West End v Chester-Le-Street United #FAVase #NonLeague

A little bit of football history that made me smile There appear to be a few more 'cads' around these days...

I'm running late with my review of Washington's Northern Area Playing Fields, so I thought we could reminisce about the year just gone... What was: A - Your favourite game of 2024? B - Your favourite ground visited? C - Your favourite moment of your 2024 travels?

West Allotment's fan ownership scheme! £14 per month (other, cheaper options available) gives me a say in the running of a Northern League club and in so doing, help them stay afloat with my contribution Let's see if we can make them grow, together! #NonLeague westallotmentcelticfc.co.uk/owners/

Prooooograaamme!! At Crook Town, £1 gets you 28 semi-glossy pages containing 8 full-page adverts There is a double spread on visitors, Carlisle City, fixtures, league table, squad pics, previous match pics and a club history Fantastic value and a great effort from the people who put it together 👏

Liverpool v Real Madrid in the Champions League... What a strange time and place for Kylian Mbappe to recreate Raygun's Olympic performance 👀

The famous Roker Roar was last heard on 13th May 1997 as the Black Cats defeated Everton 3-0 in the last competitive game at the famous old stadium What are your memories of this place and how does the Stadium of Light compare in your opinion? #SAFC #Sunderland #groundhopping @wisemensay.co.uk

Tromsø would be the ultimate and are, I believe, the northernmost football league team in Europe

I've been to the Ullevaal Stadion in Oslo I even got to see Erling Haaland doing Erland Haaland things against Sweden Just a tremendous country to visit (apart from the cost of food and drink)

What is the worst football kit you can remeber seeing at a game? I will always remember Brightom visiting Stoke's Victoria Ground in what looked like an Andy Pandy (look it up if you don't know) outfit Can anyone beat this?

Arsenal's Highbury Stadium It closed forever in 2006 and is now an area of luxury flats, but what memories do you have of this famous old ground? A ground I sadly never visited, so I'd love to hear your memories #ThrowbackThursday #Arsenal #AFC #Gunners
