First published in 1998, Football Grounds from the Air: Then & Now has now passed through three editions. Covering each of the ninety-two clubs in the Premier and Football leagues, the book provides an historical view of the club's ground alongside a contemporary shot of the ground as it currently exists. Fully updated and revised, this new edition will include a number of clubs, including Cardiff, Colchester, and Rotherham that have completely relocated, whilst others have undergone significant changes. Apart from the changes to these grounds, the onset of automatic promotion/relegation between the league and conference now ensures that two clubs drop out from League 2 to be replaced by two from the conference. Whilst sometimes this results in former league clubs regaining their status, it can also mean that traditional non-league teams, such as Dagenham and Redbridge can enter football's higher echelons whilst league teams such as Accrington can return to the league after an absence of many years.
