Barnet Vs MK Dons
My son Liam, Grandad Steve and I completed the famous 92 Football League Grounds challenge for the second time with a trip to The Hive, Barnet FC’s state‑of‑the‑art home since 2013 after 106 years at Underhill for Matchday 97. Grandad Steve kindly agreed to drive, giving my car a much‑needed rest after 17 matches since […]

The history and nostalgia of that era made this trip particularly special. I had arranged to meet a […]

Originally, we had planned to attend Crawley Town vs Shrewsbury Town as Matchday 79, but due to the pain I was experiencing, we had to cancel. Fortunately, Crawley Town were very understanding […]
