HAMPSHIRE football fans have completed a mammoth challenge to visit 20 football grounds in under 24 hours.
Dan Rourke and his friends Martin Morris, Chris Bearpark, Steve Counsell, Andrew Hakin, Keith McIntyre, James Dobson, James Ford and Ben Turley finished their 24-hour driving tour to each of the 20 football grounds in the Premier League with just minutes to spare.
The challenge began at Swansea’s ground and finished at St Mary’s – 23 hours, 27 minutes and 57 seconds later.
The group raised £1,020 for the Miscarriage Association.
Dan, 31, from Whiteley, organised the trip after he and his girlfriend lost a baby through miscarriage.
