Re: Seeing Burnley play at different grounds
Maidstone played at Dartford's old Watling Street ground which was lost to redevelopment in 1992. Maidstone went bankrupt at the same time and are shown bottom of the first-year EFL 3 in 1992 as having folded. The same happened to Aldershot at about the same time and I seem to remember publicity that Burnley had contributed to trying to save them. Maidstone had to reform from scratch in the bottom tier of the Kent League. They later developed a new ground in Maidstone itself with a 3G pitch and they're now in the National League South. In their final (1991 season) Jimmy Mullen's Clarets did the double over them with a 1-0 win in Dartford - winning the Championship that season.

They go down as far as east sussex second tier, and possibly beyond, so I'm up to 269 now, including all sorts of non-entities that rye have played in cup games.
