Geographical distribution of Championship clubs

[Tesco in Disguise]

not a bad spread. plenty to see here... for me, brizzle/cardiff/ipwitch are the nearest unvisited grounds.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

11 Southern, 6 Midlands, 6 North and one Very North.

Seems like a fair balance to me. Shame bloody Middlesbrough are in there though.

For Middlesbro, book dirt cheap flights to Newcastle as soon as the fixtures are out (then hope it doesn't change..)

Assuming its on a Saturday, I think a weekend in Newcastle could be in order, with the short-ish hop down to the Riverside just for the game.

Can see at least half a dozen of them being over subscribed.

Would undoubtedly be preferable to spending a day in Middlesbrough. Never seen a game there, but I had the misfortune to spend some time in the town on an A Level Geography field trip in about 1995. Passing through en route to Hartlepool over the last couple of seasons, very little seems to have improved.

We had a cracking night out in Middlesbrough season before last when we played Hartlepool, grim place but a good night out.

From that map I thought Millwall and West Ham were ground-sharing for a second!

I went there twice back in about 2004/5, the second time was for a funeral, the wake of which was held at the Riverside in one of the hospitality suites. The young man whose funeral it was had worked for Boro when he was a student and was a lifelong fan. I have to say that the welcome I received, on both visits, was about as warm and friendly as you could wish for. It is true that Middlesborough isn't one of the most picturesque towns in Britain, but all the people I met were a fine advert for the place.

We've exchanged journeys to Carlisle and Hartlepool for a single trip somewhere even further south and still you Southerners are moaning! Spare a thought for the gruelling trips Middlesbrough fans have to face.

The more I look at that, the tougher the league looks. Our Gus has some work in the transfer market in front of him

 

[patchamalbion]

wonder how many of those we will sell out
