Next season hopefully I will get to go to quite a few grounds i have never been too .
Sunderland's stadium of light has to top the list .But I have also never made it to Barnsley ,Doncaster ,Accrington or surprisingly Wimbledon's present home .
As for return visits I enjoy different grounds for different reasons .
Peterborough i love the river bar on a nice day it is a really pleasant build up to a game .Blackpool and Fleetwood in summer of spring or Autumn offers the pleasure beech and later in the year the lights etc .Oxford and Pompey my wife enjoys so we will have a weekend away with me disappearing for a few hours .Plymouth could also make a very pleasant weekend .Burton ,Scunny and Rotherham i find their fans really friendly and enjoy the visits for that reason .Charlton i missed this season always feel we have a chance and it is a return to where I spent a about decade living in that general area so they are always the team I most want to beat .Millwall and Palace apart who were both closer to my old stamping ground .
Notts county, Coventry, Lincoln or Exeter (never seen Gills play here ) all could make interesting return visits so I look forward with interest to seeing who comes up .

I too will be looking for Sunderland away when fixtures are announced towards the end of June. Will also go to Accrington, Doncaster and Barnsley for the first time. The only one i might do that i've not done before is Oxford but it will depend on when.
 
I am hoping Lincoln come up and that is a Tuesday night. I travel to Lincoln for work a fair bit so that would work out well for me :-)

Nice City Lincoln always worth heading "uphill" for drinks rather than "downhill" where the stadium is.
 
Done them all at present including current relegated and promoted. Hoping either Exeter or Lincoln come up as I've missed both for some reason or other. Both nice cities too.
Sunderland's ground is excellent. Went there for a 2-1 defeat on a Tuesday night in the Championship. Our group already planning for a weekend in Newcastle if on a Saturday.
Of course this will be our F.A. Cup Final according to the Sunderland fans when they post on everyone's board next season.
Favourite repeat visit, Accrington, very friendly, nice pub by ground and can stand which I always like.
 
Plenty of New grounds for me to do with me on 21/92.Sunderland is the one that sticks out.Will look at doing Accrington,Barnsley,Wycombe,and Rochdale too.

The good thing about cup finals is that they are one-off matches that either side can win.
