Can You Take Bags Into English Soccer Games?
One question we get often is whether bags are allowed into English soccer games. And the answer is basically: Yes, but sometimes not big ones. Paul has been to more than 100 games at 69 different stadiums around the UK, and has probably taken a bag into 95 percent of them. Here's his advice: I…
Planning a Trip to Watch English Soccer? Consider Staying in Nottingham
If you are headed over to England to see some soccer games, consider staying in the city of Nottingham. Here is a photo tour of the place, which makes a great hub for groundhopping explorations. At least, this is what I managed to see of it in a couple of walks. I spent basically one…
