At last, they’ve done it! Russ and Pete have finally completed the 92, after some delays and with no thanks at all to cup draws, frozen pitches and a lack of convenient rescheduling for TV in recent seasons. Dragging Russ’s wife along for good measure, they headed up to Barrow-in-Furness for the penultimate ground at Holker Street on the Friday night (19th) before hooking around Morecambe Bay and down to Fleetwood for the big one…Ground 92, at Highbury Stadium on the Saturday. And seeing as they were out and about and that an unexpected opportunity arose for a Sunday game, they added Brackley to their ‘140 Club’ tally for good measure. Learn more about your ad choices.
