It’s also on YouTube. Definitely worth a watch. It’s a tour of what is now at places where grounds existed before. There were so many where I’ve seen QPR play. All league grounds except a trip to Rushden where many of us would have been to see Ainsworth score 2 absolute worldies. Did make me look at the current 92 to see where I’ve seen QPR play:
1. Man City
2. Arsenal
3. Brighton
4. Brentford
5. Everton
6. Coventry
7. Sunderland
8. Tottenham
9. Swansea
10. Middlesbrough
11. West Ham
12. Millwall
13. Southampton
14. Charlton? Played at Selhurst Park
15. Bolton
15. Cardiff
16. Derby
17. Reading
18. Oxford
19. AFC Wimbledon
20. Leicester
21. Barnet
22. York City
23. Chesterfield
24. Colchester
24. Rotherham
Must be some on this message board that have done some more. I think looking at the list I always enjoyed my visits to Maine Road and Upton Park. Goodison and The Dell were also decent trips. Some good memories of our trips to many of these grounds. Still have some bad memories of many of these grounds including the one to Highfield Road when Eoin Jess scored back in 96. Remember Martin Allen and Justin Channing scoring great goals at The Dell. |  | | |  |

What about Stoke and Huddersfield?
Done all those on your list apart from Filbert Street, never got there.
For my grounds visited list I used the clubs not the actual ground unless it was some sort of neutral venue. My rule was that it had to be a QPR game and friendlies counted as long as a pro club.
So including Wembley, Cardiff Arena and Chester City (some team of mechanics in the FA Cup) I got up to 83
That does include some clubs sadly no longer with us like Bury and R&D who you mentioned [Post edited 12 Oct 21:39]

No longer part of the 92 but Huish park the old sloping pitch of Yeovil. |  |

Never saw us play at the old grounds of Stoke, Shrewsbury, Hull and Huddersfield. Those must have been games back in the 60s or 70s. Done their modern grounds except Shrewsbury. We have never had the chance to go there. | | | |

Anybody done the trifecta of Brighton at the Goldstone, Withdean and now the Amex?
I haven't, but that's quite a heady mix of vastly different 1 club grounds. |  |

All the London ones including Barnet's, with it's mud bath in midfield. Also Leicester and Derby.
A weak showing I realise, but considering I left the UK in in 1976 not so shabby. Too bad non-league grounds aren't included, my score would have increased in multiples in that case. [Post edited 13 Oct 2:34]

I have been to 59 football league grounds, some are no longer in the league but I never got to West Ham or Barnet.
I remember going up to Man City for a night game. must have been early 60's, getting off the train and struggling to breath, the air was toxic with industrial smog. (that's when U.K. made things)
I went to Birmingham to see Rangers win 4-1 in the league cup and was present at Aston Villa and Sheffield Wednesday when we were promoted.
Nicest people I met on my travels were the fans of Bury. | | | |

Disappointed that they didn’t mention White City, which given the history of the stadium should have been in there.
To be honest I thought it was a great idea poorly executed. | |
