Soccernostalgia Talk Podcast-Episode 132 (A discussion about my recent travel to Britain and the stadium/ground visits.)

 This is the 132nd episode of my podcast with Mr. Paul Whittle of https://the1888letter.com/, @1888letter.

 

Just a month or so ago, I traveled to Britain for vacation.

I took the opportunity to visit Football stadiums along the way and I even met Paul for the first time in person.

On that day, Paul was kind enough to drive myself and my family to various grounds, new and old, big and small.

It was an enriching experience to see many of the grounds I have only been reading about and/or only seen on television all these decades.

For this episode, we discuss personal recollections on this visit that included places such as Anfield, Old Trafford and Celtic Park.
