Tenth current or former Premier League ground we've won a league game at. We have also won games at two current or former Premier League clubs who had moved before or after we won there, and Wimbledon.

Barnsley
Bournemouth
Blackpool
Bradford
Coventry
Luton
Man Utd (assume that is being counted)
Oldham
Portsmouth
Sheff Weds
Swindon
Wigan
Not sure who is the other one alongside Coventry to have moved ground? And still missing one.
Edit: Ah, the other was given already in the original post. Wimbledon.

Christ, your spreadsheet must’ve been designed by NASA or summink. Can an ordinary laptop contain it?? 😊

I've realised I had mistakenly included Reading (won there in both cups) and left out Bournemouth (because it was listed as AFC Bournemouth) in my list, meaning the total is the same - ten PL grounds, twelve PL clubs, plus one club with a similar name as a PL one.

The 'and wimbledon' is on top of the 2 isn't it?
Brentford?

Yeah, I was looking for 13 and had 12. Wimbledon was the 13th.
I can't remember us ever winning at Brentford.

So we did. Blimey. So them and Coventry are the two to have moved.
So this means either we have won at 13 instead of 12, plus Wimbledon, or I listed one we haven't won at. But am sure I recall us beating each of them.
Edit: Just opened up my spreadsheet to check and we have won at all of those grounds, so can only assume ManUtd wasn't being counted as we didn't play them. Or maybe because it was a playoff final rather than a normal league game.

Yes, Old Trafford doesn't count as not a league game

I didn't think of Man United as I was referring to Boroguide's Clubs page, but I think including them under 'league games' would be 'doing a Lee Clark'.
Brentford moved from Griffin Park after our win and Coventry had already moved when we won there. I never got to tick off Griffin Park as our fixture the following season got rained off when I'd got as far as Vauxhall.
I've put Wimbledon in 'other' as Wikipedia suggests they never formally acquired the old club's legacy, so I don't think it counts in any meaningful sense.
We've won at all four grounds to only host one PL season.
Coventry was our most prestigious away league win if you count PL seasons, Wednesday if you count all top flight (but Cov is still second place). Both games took place in 2012 and neither were on a Saturday.

We've surely won at MK Dons though, so that counts as beating Wimbledon?

Could make it 11 with a win at Huddersfield in a few weeks too.
