    6 or 7 teams, depending on the definition of "new stadium" vis-a-vis a "new home ground"

    1992 : Charlton Athletic
    1995 : Middlesbrough
    1997 : Bolton Wanderers
    1998 : Reading
    1999 : Wigan Athletic
    2003 : Manchester City
    2006 : Arsenal
    Upton Park to The Valley *
    Ayresome Park to Riverside Stadium
    Burnden Park to Reebok Stadium
    Elm Park to Majedski Stadium
    Springfield Park to JJB Stadium
    Maine Road to City of Manchester Stadium
    Highbury to Emirates Stadium

    * Charlton Athletic were at The Valley from 1924 to 1985. They moved to Selhurst Park (ground share with Crystal Palace) for 6 years to 1991, when they moved to Upton Park for a year (ground share with West Ham United). When they returned to The Valley after 7 years the entire stadium had been rebuilt (ground capacity in 2006 was 27,113). In the late 1960s the stated capacity of the "old" The Valley was 73,500 (3,000 seated).
