Back in 2014 I self-published Football Grounds of the Early 1900s. I’ve recently updated it and uploaded a flick-through to Youtube at youtu.be/6LDG6Lj7-m4 The book can currently be bought at tinyurl.com/r7y68wfa

Two views taken from the same spot of The Valley, Charlton Athletic. The first is in 1986 after the ground had stood empty for a year and the second, 2023, showing the all-seat stand that eventually replaced the vast East Terrace.
See more in GT126.

The old Kop at Birmingham City's St Andrew's was originally built in 1906 with the aid of 100,00 cart loads of rubbish. It was last used in 1994 and replaced by a new all-seat stand. It is just one of the great old side terraces featured in GT126.

A 104-page bumper edition, GT125 is a special issue celebrating Groundtastic achieving the 125 milestone. If that wasn't enough, the magazine has also had a style refresh. It's gone down well and is set to be a sell out. Don't miss out, order your copy at groundtastic.co.uk

Back in GT16 (Spring 1999) we mentioned that Bohemians' Dalymount Park was about to be redeveloped, causing @TheMillerFiles to make a panic dash to Dublin. 27 years later it seems the rebuild is finally going to happen. Read more in GT125.
