My ranking of all 92 football league stadiums - after visiting them in one season

1 week ago | inews.co.uk | Daniel Storey

Before we start: I am aware that there is plenty of potential for people shouting here. This is purely my opinion, in many cases based on a single experience and this isn’t as important as war correspondence. I’m not saying that your club is tinpot. I am not telling you that you shouldn’t like your own club’s stadium. Even the grounds at the bottom of this list are still great by definition because they host live football – they’re just the least good of the 92 (again: in my opinion).
My 17,686-mile journey home to Nottingham Forest

Doing the 92 is Daniel Storey’s odyssey to every English football league club in a single season. This is club 92/92. The best way to follow his journey and read all of the previous pieces is by subscribing hereAll I wanted was there to be nothing riding on the match. You’ll have to forgive this latest display of self-absorption, but I couldn’t quite stomach another date with destiny in May with relegation on the line. Twice in two years Nottingham Forest had dealt with those.
Man Utd dire, Forest sublime - my verdict on every Premier League team's season

There seems to be some suggestion that this was a poor Premier League season – I entirely disagree. You had a manager winning the title in his first season, two of the Big Six falling lower than ever before in the Premier League era and battle for the Champions League places that continued into the final minutes of the final day.

92 things I learned by visiting all 92 football league clubs this season

1 week ago | inews.co.uk | Daniel Storey

I have my dream job and this has been my dream season. Over the last nine months, whenever anybody has asked me if I am tired of the travel, the writing or the matches, I have done my best impression of the weary explorer. I hope they didn’t see through the thin facade. In 2024-25, I set myself the challenge of watching a home game, and separately writing a detailed feature, on each of the 92 football league clubs.

This week the congregation filed in to worship an hour later, but not into here. For the church with its own football ground, things will never be the same.
Gillingham's weird, petty rivalry with Swindon is what makes our game special

These are not the usual conditions for any type of emotion to hang heavy in the air.
Trent was Liverpool's perfect Scouser - that's why his exit hurts so much

Having walked across the city centre, I entered The North Western at Lime Street station for some breakfast. The mood was bizarre.
Alexander-Arnold evoked a reaction from Liverpool fans I've never seen before

This is an extract of The Score. Sign-up up here to receive the newsletter every Monday morning with The i Paper’s verdict on all 20 Premier League clubsANFIELD – It was the perfect whipped pass, from the part of the Anfield turf that Trent Alexander-Arnold has loved so much. For much of its course, it seemed inevitable that Sunday’s protagonist wouldn’t get the winning assist. Two Liverpool teammates threw their outstretched legs at it, at least one probably reacting a little too late.
