As I'm trying to attend all 92 League grounds, this year provides a bonanza to get from the 45/92 up to maybe 60/92 if I get to go to most away games. But given I live 20 mins from MK I'm particularly looking forward to seeing Cov @ Stadium:MK. Which away ground are you mostly keenly anticipating and why?

MK is on my doorstep(stony Stratford) so am looking forward to it as it will be like a "home" game.not having the 100 mile round trip via a pick up near Banbury will be so nice.other than that,Swindon maybe to see Di canio carry on.

There's a few I am looking forward to. Huish park, the bescot, county ground and the new meadow.

Would like to do dean court, brisbane road and deep dale

I'm between MK and Stevenage and with the games falling 3 days apart over Xmas; less fuel consumed more presents!

Yeovil....can stand up and jump about and will be first game in what seems ages. Why do the seasons have to be so far apart?

Will be at the MK game if not at work. Want to see what the ground is like of a club that was stolen from London.

I'll be walking to stadium mk! Live in bletchley. Been there couple of times! Pain in the buttocks to get a beer missed most the first half of the rugby not very well organised in that respect. Was the first time stadium was full though.

Looking forward to going to orient. My friend says they do the best hot dogs they were rated worst in the football league few years ago but he loves them. Always thought he was a bit special.

A few of my family live in Bletchley too. Live near that school with the huge dinosaur standing at the edge (they still have that?). It's Stadium MK for me too.

Which baseball ground then? My favourite visited is either AT&T park in SF or Turner Field, Atlanta. Want to visit new Yankee Stadium having been to the old one back in 1999.

I more than likely will be down stoney as that is my drinking hole. Used to live that side of mk and most my friends drink over there. I usually go to the white horse if cov is on the telly Tim (owner) always puts cov games on for us.
