Just trying to be a decent bloke. It’s not always easy.

Dash across Great Belt for some entertaining dead rubber action, 5 goals in an eventful 2nd half with the home fans in jitters at the end. Great setup with a raised viewing platform and concession stall.

As lovely a summer day as they come in Denmark and a trip into a tranquil Copenhagen suburb oozing wealth. A charming pitch tucked away in a forest and a decent game with a gaggle of hoppers present completed a good evening

@PrmTrine Jeg boede for nylig et par overnatninger på "Vienna House Easy by Wyndham Hamburg" meget tæt på Hauptbahnhof. Rimelig pris, godt værelse og god morgenmad.

Good to meet other Danish hoppers at the second part of a top notch afternoon. Again a very pleasant and green ground, with even a few steps of terracing. Cracking game, Køge winning from 2-0 down as the hosts imploded

Summer, staggered kick offs and football frenzy near Copenhagen. Superb set-up for a small club, benches, tables, tap beer and BBQ. The visitors may be named after an English club, but facts are lost in the mist of time.

Finished a couple of days of conference at Legoland (yes, we could roam the park) with footie in the nearby village Sønder Omme. Cracking ground with a large covered enclosure, pleasant ambience and a rip-roaring game.

Onwards to the outskirts of Herning, 3 Superliga grounds sighted enroute, and a 3G that doesn't really have much going for it in groundhopping terms. Surprisingly one-sided game between two sides head to head for the playoff spot

@PGgroundhopping Hahaha, det er jo heller ikke en dårlig ting at bruge dagen på.😜

[Michael Petersen @micpetersen]

A basic setup for the opener on a hot and sunny Whit Monday, cafe and bbq open and a decent game. The hosts look destined for the drop, the visitors might still stay up after 3 second half goals.

Fail to prepare, prepare to fail! Had missed the main pitch is being redone and the game moved nextdoor. Still, worse evening for the hapless stand-in home keeper in this supposedly top of table clash.

The sun was shining so it would be churlish not too... The usual dash around the Nørreport area for craft beer before heading into the Copenhagen suburbs. A bumper crowd at the school pitch, a lovely place for footie

@ChrisKaiserD10S Passionen på tribunerne er intakt på trods af de hårde tider - og det, pænt sagt, ikke-inspirerende spil på banen.

[Michael Petersen @micpetersen]

Very open and basic ground on a leaden and cold day, not all groundhopping can be magic. Bring your garden chair if you want a seat. Somewhat bad-tempered game, exciting 2nd half as the hosts came back from 3-0 down in 15 mins

4 promotions on the trot and challenging for the 5th, the village home side is hot. One of the best games I've seen for a while, pacy and fiercely fought with a late winner. Great support in the lovely ground.

@PGgroundhopping Ja præcis. Jetsmark er den oprindelige klub. Jammerbugt (og Blokhus FC) var en overbygning på Jetsmark.

[Michael Petersen @micpetersen]

The first game of the day played in a mix of showers, sunshine and gusts of wind. A good game, the table-topping hosts the better side with the visitors more physical. Basic but really nice ground, dedicated club people.

A trip to the north of Jutland was broken up with footie in the central, beautiful and hilly part of the peninsula. The promotion chasing hosts were soundly beaten. Plenty of elevated viewing but the ground looks work in progress
