Forest Green play at the top of a very big hill in a village just outside Stroud, Gloucs. Tidy stadium but tiny. If that map is accurate it seems Owls v Barnsley is the closest derby. Followed by Burton v Derby. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's 14 grounds there I haven't done (accy, Fleetwood, Morecambe, shrews, Burton, Barnsley, Cheltenham, forest Green, Exeter, Plymouth, pompey, Cambridge, Oxford, wycombe) and the only 3 anywhere near likely to go general sale are the 2 devons and Portsmouth. I've only just realised that I'm still missing Portsmouth, I couldn't justify going this season with it being midweek and on Sky, but I did manage to add all the other 5 new grounds for me although it meant going in the home end at Wimbledon and scrounging a spare for Fleetwood after I missed out in the original low allocations. I'm now on 114 different grounds watching SWFC. Hopefully Pompey is on a Saturday next season and the only other new one for me is Forest Green which I'll be struggling to get a ticket for unless it's late in the season and I can build some extra TPP up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Played at the golf course there once, it is a club rule that you have to wear red when playing (they even have a colour chart of acceptable shades of red).

Essex is a different county, that stretches almost all the way to Ipswich and two thirds of the way to Cambridge. Newham is a relatively small borough of London. I did say at the time that I had no idea why I thought Forest Green was Essex way, but I never said I thought Forest Green was in London. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
