    Average amount on my end - about 30 at a push
    Personally speaking I've done 84 different grounds (many at least 2 or 3 times), and I personally know plenty that have done more.

    Always found the northern grounds to have the best proper football atmosphere (and old Ninian Park with the big side terrace).

    Personal favourite was St James Park in 1983 with the old Gallowgate and Leazes ends.

    Nothing quite like a floodlit match on the banks of the Thames though!

          Can't put a number on it but there's not many I've not done of the current ones. Rather oddly, the one Coventry are about to leave is one of the new ones I've not done.
          Done all the oldies such as Brighton's Goldstone/Withdean, Stoke's Victoria, Mibblesboro's Ayresome Park, Boltons Burnden Park, Derby's Baseball Ground and Leicesters Filbert St. Sundelands Roker Pk, Old Den, Highbury, Layer Rd, Elm Park, Plough Lane, The Dell, Highfield Rd, Donny's Belle Vue, Manor Ground, Yorks Bootham Crescent before it was rebuilt with Kit Kat's, Maine Road, Vetch Field, Boothferry Park and Millmoor.

          Some proper toilets among those with Plough Lane, Belle Vue, Millmore and Elm Park being the worst.

          Places like the Valley, should they count twice for old and new?

          Anyways I think I'll leave my answer at loads, old and new because it's too many to tot up.

          As for the best, I reckon of the modern ones Man City and of the old (still going strong) it just has to be ours. All the dumps that no longer exist were trashed for a reason but I have some fond memories of the old Valley as a nipper.

                I know this is going to sound unreal but i,ve been to over 100 different grounds whether following Rangers or Woking and now Havant and Waterlooville.
                Watched Rangers in four different countries, including Ibiza.

                Favourite ground for me is The Stadium of Light.

                Worst grounds well there are so many but Spotland is ****e and Readings old wood shack.
                Aldershot not much better.

                Peresonally though for an away fan, Fratton Park is a mare for away fans.

                          WHL? Ground is good but is a nightmare to get to - call themselves a London club? Easier to get to Swindon

                            Been fortunate to visit most of the top grounds (teams around Europe) Obviously not all with QPR.
                            May seem strange to say but apart from Loftus Road, Villa Park is my favorite ground and that includes Wembley, Nou Camp, & San Siro.

                            Worst is either Luton, Watford, Southend.
