Back to the Beginning at City Ground
I don't remember the first time I ever kicked a soccer ball, or watched a game, or walked into a stadium. But I do remember the first fact that made me fall in love with the game -- the first shaft of light, if you will, that shone on me from another world, which I…
Back in the Championship: 2022 Game Day at Sunderland
Sunderland are back in the Championship for the 2022-23 season, and I hadn't been there in ages, so a visit to the Stadium of Light was a proper kickoff for my latest groundhopping adventure. I hope to see dozens of games on this trip, including ticking off the last of "the 92" in the English…

Groundhopping at Ipswich Town FC
A lot of English people look at me kind of funny when I say things like, "I really enjoyed seeing a game at Ipswich Town." But it's true! I genuinely like places like Portman Road, where history trumps glamour and any support for the club is long-time and legitimate. The town of Ipswich itself has…
Groundhopping at Colchester United
Colchester United won't be high on many groundhopping lists, but the club is based in a nice town not too far from London, and it's a trip into the kind of small-time English football where some different kinds of fun can be had. I went out there as part of a three-game weekend in East…
