    Last Monday I went to Viskafors v Kronang, a division 5 game in Väster Gotaland.  The game finished 2-2, both goals scored for Kronang by my friend's son.
    A lovely little ground with a terrific backdrop of the lake behind it.

    I'm at Silver Jubilee Park (Hendon's ground) tonight for Hilltop v Grays Athletic in the extra preliminary round of the FA Cup.

    Former Addick, Ollie Muldoon, seems to have joined Grays this season.

    With all the Mohammeds for Hilltop I hope they all have nicknames.

    Jack Yates is clearly a token

    I have fit Monaco v Gornik Zabrze into a holiday, €14 for a Conference League qualifier. 3 to 4000 are here, including a couple of hundred away fans at the back right:

    I am at Quorn v Shepshed Dynamo tonight and have another treat of discovering former Addicks while groundhopping.

    Not only does Luke Varney feature in the programme, but Jamal Campbell-Ryce's son, Jaiden, is playing.

    I haven't seen Jamal himself. Yet...

    I've had 2 nights away with Mr Stewart, with 3 games in Gothenburg. It's a pleasant city that's not overly expensive. I got a Swedish parkrun tick too.

    Hacken 1-1 Mjallby was £17 on Friday night. Decent game, a short tram from the centre.


    Jonesereds 3-2 Torslanda was in the 4th division, chosen partly for the host's name. We got free entry because they didn't accept cash or card, you needed a Swedish payment app that needed a Swedish phone number.


    IFK Gothenburg 2-1 Halmstad was a few hours later for our main event. £26, great atmosphere and just a few mins walk from central station.

    Given my obvious bias towards Sweden, I hope you had a fantastic time there.  As long as you do your homework Sweden is very good for groundhopping.

    A fair point! Do you think Stockholm is as good a base for groundhopping as Gothenburg?

    Yes mate.
    Hammarby, AIK, Djurgarden and Brommapojkarna are Stockholm based and in the Allsvenskan,  Sirius are in Uppsala only 30 minutes by train.  Vasteras is only one hour from Stockholm as well.
    This is before you then go into the lower leagues.
    If you go to Stockholm stay in Sodermalm.
