The Complete Non-League Groundhopper’s Guide

Well, where do I start?
Amorim…Gone
Nancy…Gone
Marseca…Gone
Moore …Gone

The merry-go-round keeps going round. Port Vale’s league position and Celtic’s form perhaps mean that the departures were inevitable. The situations at Chelsea and Manchester United are far more intriguing.
Just hearing that a certain José Mário dos Santos Mourinho Félix AKA “The Special One” is interested in the Chelsea role. Yo-Yo …….. but NOBODY has EVER brought them more success! What about Ole Gunnar Solskjær to United? I’d be very happy with either returning to Old Trafford!

All good banter but in the real world both my games were off this weekend. Holmer Green and Meadow Lane Notts County are grounds I have been to before so no ticks but this is a very worthwhile addition to any groundhopper’s library. (See below for my own personal January offer)

Let’s look at “The Complete Non-League Groundhopper’s Guide “

Join Alan Burge on this odyssey of exploration around some of football’s lesser-known – but by no means less remarkable or significant – football grounds.

No breeze block and plastic identikit stadia here, just unique and inspiringly creative incarnations and interpretations of the humble host of the truly beautiful game.

Superbly complemented by Alan’s unique diary entries, explore weird and wonderful structures, the meeting of old and new and the unashamed collaboration with their natural habitat.

You’ll never share the away end at The Emirates with a tree, or the Anfield Kop with a replica shirt-wearing Great Dane, but they can be found right here – along with hundreds of other equally enchanting and evocative images, in The Complete Non-League Groundhopper’s Guide.
