That's taking me up to 149, but I have three more possibles - all questionable - this part-timer and amateur is seeking advice from the real experts re ...

New Wembley (London, England)

Does the version of Wembley re-opened/opened in 2007, with its moved pitch, which I attended for England 3-2 Scotland in August 2013, count as different from the Wembley I attended a couple of times in the 1980s and 90s for the Rous Cup and Euro 96?

Deepdale (Preston North End)

I only played here - a works game way back in the days North End had a plastic pitch they hired out to the public - but have never actually watched a game here. Does playing a full 90 count as a hop?

Lennoxtown Training facility, Celtic FC.

Celtic b 3 - 0 Aberdeen City
Women's Scottish League Cup 2010

Like I say, do training facilities count?

Thanks, Shaunee - appreciated, Sir.

I resolved my Deepdale conundrum by driving down to see PNE at home to Ipswich at the tail-end of the EFL regular season - making it, Largs and Petershill the only three grounds at which I've both played and spectated.

Well, I say "played" ...

But many thanks for squeezing all my updates into my silly categories (right on queue, of course, Shielfield became a Senior ground and, having never seen Cove at home, I suddenly HAVEN'T done all the SFL grounds) and special thanks for your blessing on Lennoxtown.

All the best
