I see the coming 2016-17 season Fans guide to football grounds has been juggled around ready for the start, North Ferriby Utd, Solihull Moors & Guiseley (have we ever met that trio?) look interesting reads and thankfully close to rail stations. Have got to admit going into Nailsworth and Forest Green Rovers will be a bit of a challenge (Would it be worse than Yeovil Town?) Bromley, Sutton and Woking should bring a bit of a following from Victoria Road though and Dover Athletic not far behind could be a bit of a craic, Tranmere boasts a lovely stadium and quite a few of the clubs are close to major cities which could turn out interesting.

Boreham Wood is a nice local one too. Having looked at the above link its amazing how small the newly promoted clubs grounds are looking forward to it.

Eastleigh is an hour directly from Waterloo. Bring wellies and a torch if we get them on a winter Tuesday night, you have to walk through a forest and then a country road with no pavement to get to the ground from the nearest station.

Not been to FGRs new ground, but I believe it is near to the old one, which was only a tenner in a cab from Stroud Station. Always used to be a good day out

The New Lawn is about 1/4 mile further down the road from the old ground... There first official game at the New Lawn was actually against us , first game of the season in our conference winning season.
