Okay so yesterday I got this itch, right? Wanted to see, like, exactly where all those Premier League clubs actually hang their hats across England. Yeah, you can Google each one, but I fancied seeing them all pinned on a map, close together or far apart. Figured others might wanna see that too, maybe even find clubs near them. Thought it’d be quick. Spoiler: it wasn’t.
Starting Simple (And Failing)
First thought: open up Google Maps. Easy! Just search “Premier League Stadiums England”. Boom. Done.
Nope. Total fail. Google Maps dumped a mess of pins everywhere – current clubs mixed with historic ones, training grounds, random stuff. Stadium of Light? Sure. But also pins for clubs relegated years ago? Useless. Pure chaos. Felt like a waste of time already.
Digging Deeper Online
Alright, scratch that. Jumped straight to the Premier League’s actual website. Felt like the source should have a map, right? Seemed logical. Clicked all over the place: “Clubs” section, “Fixtures” maybe… nothing. Nada. Just lists and tables. Surprisingly no official map. Felt kinda dumb. Why wouldn’t they have that?
Started searching things like “Premier League clubs map England 2024”. Found some news sites and fan blogs. Some had maps! Felt hopeful… until I opened them.
- Map #1: Looked okay, but zoomed in and realised the pins were totally wrong. Like, Arsenal pinned in south London? No way. Delete.
Map #2: Better locations, but looked like it was designed in 1998. Blurry, tiny pins, no labels unless you clicked each one. Awful user experience.
Map #3: Locations seemed mostly right, but cluttered with ads popping up over the pins. You couldn’t see half the clubs. Super annoying.
Doing It Myself (The Hard Way)
Fine. If I wanted it done right, had to do it myself. Rolled up the sleeves. Went back to Google Maps, but started fresh. Cleared everything.
Opened a new tab. Googled “Premier League clubs 2023/24”. Got the official list – 20 clubs. Wrote them down:
- Arsenal, Aston Villa, Bournemouth…
- Brentford, Brighton, Burnley…
- …you get the idea. All 20.
Then, one by one, I searched for each club’s exact stadium name + “stadium” in Google Maps.
- Search: “Emirates Stadium”. Pin drops? Good, saved it to a new list I called “Prem 2024”.
- Next: “Villa Park”. Save.
- “Vitality Stadium”. Save.
- Keep going… “Turf Moor”. Save.
It was boring, honestly. Took ages. Had to double-check a couple like “Gtech Community Stadium” (Brentford) to make sure I got the exact name right so Maps understood. Almost gave up when searching for Luton Town’s Kenilworth Road – tricky one! But finally pinned it.
Putting It All Together
Finally had all 20 saved in my Google Maps list. Clicked “View all” on the list. Boom. There it was! All 20 pins neatly on the map. Zoomed out… wow. You could instantly see the clusters:
- The big London bunch (Arsenal, Spurs, Chelsea, West Ham etc.).
- The northwest corner (Liverpool, Man City, Man United, Everton).
- Brighton down south alone, Newcastle way up north.
- Burnley isolated kinda east, Villa holding the Midlands.
This was the view I wanted! Super simple once it was done. You could zoom right in on your own town/city and see who’s closest. Or just get a sense of the spread.
Felt good to see it work. The key was saving them as a dedicated list in Maps. No more messy searches.
What I Learned
Basically? Premier League stadiums are scattered weirdly – big cities hog a bunch, others are miles out on their own. And the league itself doesn’t make a simple map easy to find! Building your own list is tedious but reliable. Now I can pull it up anytime I’m curious, or tell a mate “Hey, want to see how far Villa is from you?”. Pretty neat, even if it started as a massive headache trying to find someone else’s decent map.
