Game number 400 was a special one as I finally got to tick off Champion Hill, home of Dulwich Hamlet A great ground with loads of charm and character, heres to another 400 games Ground number 113 Dulwich Hamlet 0-1 Billericay Town

@RedCardFTBL Done the Valley for an FA Cup 3rd round game in 2020.. it only opened two stands.. might need to revisit..

@AlexisOBrien48 Recommend Charlton if you’ve not been already. Failing that, Dulwich.

Heading to London on Saturday, which game shall I do along with any recommendations?

@RonanTheGreek Ah I see.. “deadline day” is for players contracted to clubs ie. loans I was amazed when we signed Djenairo Daniels in April last year.. not many players signing for clubs in April..

@AlexisOBrien48 Out of contract registered professionals can be signed at any time, that's the only exception i'm aware of

What is the point in a LOI “deadline day” if clubs are announcing players two weeks after? Is there even a deadline?

Latest edition of Groundtastic arrived safe and well and keeping me occupied before my 399th game and my 165th visit to Turners Cross

Cathal O'Sullivan has joined North End following his departure from Cork City and will initially link up with the U21s squad. 🤝 Welcome to PNE, Cathal. 🇮🇪 #pnefc | @pnefcacademy

First away day of the season was a great success, a great performance and coming away with a 4-1 win. My 3rd visit to Ferrycarrig. Good to go away and come back with 3 points. 20 February 2026 Wexford FC v Cork City League of Ireland First Division Ferrycarrig Park

@AFCFixtureNews With a team from Dublin or an international friendly held in Dublin?

Should be… As we know, friendlies are like transfers, only confirmed once the contracts are signed!

@myftblpictures Rochdale is what my preference is but Salford is just easiest in terms of getting back to the City centre afterwards.. will decide tomorrow once I do some more homework on getting to/from there.. thank you for your advice!

@AlexisOBrien48 Rochdale - Scunthorpe be best. Salford’s ground is soulless (although they’ll get a comfortable win at tomorrow)

Heading to Manchester on Tuesday for some groundhopping and debating on what fixture to go to… Any help is appreciated 👇🏼

Anyone have a spare programmes from last Fridays first league game? Cork City v Treaty United? Looking to buy

Newest addition to the shirt collection. Kilmarnock 2025/26 home shirt with Djenairo Daniels name and number print. A beauty of a shirt, althought DD had a short stay, he certainly left his mark. 12 games, 5 goals, 2 assists.

Lads supporting their local team away celebrating a 91st minute winner 200km away from home and is called tinpot Give it a rest

Pin badge collection growing slowly but surely. Aiming to collect a pin badge from every club I have visited along my travels alongside collecting Cork City and Arsenal pin badges.

Latest edition to the programme collection Pre-Season Friendly Mallow United v Cork City FC 16th August 1985

Ground number 111 for me was the London Stadium. An impressive arena but not suited to football, an incredible gap between our seats and the pitch. West Ham were impressive with £35 tickets Saturday 24th January 2026 West Ham United 3-1 Sunderland AFC Premier League
