Done the 92 questionnaire – Kev Godlington (Gashead Kev)
Rob at The Amex
How many grounds had you visited before you realised you wanted to do the lot?
Always wanted to do this.
Did you choose the last ground you were going to visit or did it just pan out that way?
Just worked out this way, could only do grounds have not been to before when Bristol Rovers were not playing
Did you have company for some or all of it – were you in competition with anyone else and what happened to them?
Had company for most of them
How many had you done when you thought ‘Right, I’m going to finish this now’?
This season thought must do it - wanted to do by time had reached 50, so just a year over due!
Obvious question but, best day out?
Playoff final 2007 at Wembley v Shrewsbury
Did you manage to do more than one ground in a day at any point?
No.
What does Plainmoor have that the Emirates never will?
Lots of Seagulls!
Did you ever turn up to find the game wasn’t on, or that you’d gone to the wrong ground?
A couple - worst one Gillingham away rang the ground 4 times assured the game was on but twenty minutes away from the ground heard on radio game was off. Also went to Shrewsbury 3 times for JPT game- first two called off half way there.
Worst food on your travels?
Been lucky so far no problems.
Do you still call ‘League One’ ‘Division Three’?
No.
Most and least welcoming hosts?
Most was Middlesbrough when fans realised ground number 91 a few weeks ago. The least is Bristol City - going there take life in your own hands
Any bizarre incidents along the way. Any brushes with anyone famous/infamous?
Coming back from Wigan one year on train at Bristol Parkway saw Bobby Gould totally out of it!
Now you’ve joined the small band of 92ers do you plan to keep visiting new grounds as they are introduced to the League, or do you consider it to be a one-off, job-done deal?
No will do new grounds as they come up, have done 82 with Rovers my aim is do all 92 with Rovers.
What was your memento/proof of each visit – program, photo, ticket stub, badge?
I used to buy programmes. Have tickets for some of games but when i first started going there were no tickets for terraces.
