Hey,

I'm just starting my Groundhopping journey. Looking for recommendations of UK based or English language podcasts and also books in English written books. Any recommendations would be hugely appreciated. Thanks.

Is there any strange rules you’ve heard of people following before they will count a ground such as

Must be in the home end
Must be in the away end
Must have bought a pie
Must have bought a match program

Hi there

With this being the last season at The Mestalla - Do people think tickets for Valencia matches are going to be impossible to come across this season?

I am looking to head over for the game v Espanyol in December, waiting to book flights but if tickets are not going to happen I will not bother

Has anyone been to CD Tenerife?

How easy is it to get tickets? Can I buy them on the day

I’m planning a trip with about 5 or 6 of us in April to Italy for a game and general enjoyment. Looks like the Milan area might work quite well with the current fixture line up of Milan, Como and Monza playing at home on weekend of April 17-18.

My main worries are that Milan are playing Napoli so i imagine tickets could be harder to come by (especially for a larger group), the Monza game is against Inter which may well move numbers too and Como have, what i assume is, a rapidly growing fan base with a tiny stadium.

Also there are European games the midweek before for conceivably 4 out of the 6 teams playing in those games…

Has anyone got any experience booking tickets at these clubs? Am I being a little bit ambitious targeting one of these games?

Hey everyone,

Does anyone have info on when ticket sales are supposed to open for Portugal vs Wales (presale, general sale, anything)? (There was a newsletter you could sign up for to get notified, but I missed that, so posting here instead — figured maybe someone already knows something, or could drop an update here if they hear anything)

Kind of extra motivated to catch this one — would love to see Ronaldo play live one more time before he’s gone from the National.
(Also spent the last year living in Portugal, so this would be a great excuse to go back and visit too haha)

For now I only check https://bilheteira.fpf.pt every morning, but I’m not sure if these ticket sales open in the morning or afternoon.

Any tips on how to not miss it — or anywhere else people are getting reliable updates from — would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone,

I’m going to San Siro in October for the first time to see Milan vs. Atalanta.
Is it necessary to buy a CRN card?
It costs €33 per person, including shipping (there are two of us).
Of course, I plan to try and get tickets on the first day of general sale, but I’m not sure if there will be many left by then; I’m aiming for a relatively good view in the middle or lower tier.

One more question about the CRN card: Can I order two tickets per account—provided I enter my colleague's CRN details as well?
In other words, does he not need his own Milan account?

Sorry for all the questions, but I just want to be 100% sure. 🙂

I’m planning to attend the Birżebbuġa St Peter’s FC vs Floriana FC match on August 14th and I have a few questions:
Can I buy a ticket at the stadium on matchday, or is it better to buy one online? Is the ticket more expensive if I buy it at the stadium?
Is there a chance the match will be sold out, or should I be okay buying a ticket at the stadium?
Also, does anyone know how much a beer costs at the stadium?
Thank you for your answers!

Hello, I’ll be in England(Manchester) from the 26.8.- 31.8. I would love to go to some Games there and visit some grounds.
For me the league doesn’t matter but my dad only wants to visit big stadiums and games on higher leauges.
Can anyone tell me wich grounds are worth it visiting?

Does anyone know if Malaga tickets normally sell out? Over there for when they play Deportivo

Hello, Can Anyone suggest fun but cheap games to watch in London and surrounding commutable areas between 24th August and 1st September. I would like to experience non-mainstream games considering PL games will be very expensive but any suggestions are welcome! What are some good games happening that week across leagues that might be a fun experience?

Hi all,

I'm planning a groundhop in and around Seville for this coming season, and saw that the weekend of January 31 both Real Betis and Sevilla are set to be at home - will one be moved? I always thought both clubs alternated being home and away each weekend to avoid a clash?

I assume that they would be on different days at least, with one on Saturday (poss Friday) and the other on Sunday. With Betis being in Europe I assume they will be Sunday. Sevilla's game is against Bilbao and neither are in Europe so think that'll be Friday or Sat.

Looking at tieing it in with potentially Xerez, Huelva or Cordoba that weekend too, so any tips gratefully received!

Hello, I’m off to Liverpool for the whole of September for the first time, and as a football fan I’d like to check out some English football grounds near Liverpool, whether they’re in the second division or the sixth division.

The problem is that I’ve no idea which ground is the most interesting to visit, or how to buy a ticket.

Could someone please help me?

Greetings! I will be in Europe during the time and have some free time Easter weekend. Does anyone know when FIFA would announce a match schedule and venues during this window?
