Old Stadiums Quiz .....

[Clarets4me]

The " Guardian " have 10 old photo's of Football grounds, from years gone past, some are now gone and some still there .... try and guess the grounds

https://www.theguardian.com/football/ng ... z-part-six

They've done this on the Saturday before Christmas for the last six years, links to the other five are on the page .... As a benchmark, I got 51 out of 60, and 8 out of 10 for the link above !! At 55, some knowledge of old players & kits helps ! Good Luck !

[CleggHall]

[JohnMac]

[claretfern]

8

[Tribesmen]

Yep banging 8 also , now a couple were a guess but there you go .

[Buxtonclaret]

Seven!

[Vino blanco]

9 out of 10, didn’t know Fellows Park.

[KLClaret]

Eight for me too

[Bosscat]

Only 4...
I only got White hart lane because of the brewery on the Pub

[slw]

5/10 for me.

[CleggHall]

White Hart lane pub sold Charringtons - dreadful bl...y beer even in the days of Watney's red barrel.

[Wexford_Claret]

Eight.

[EarbyClaret]

Exactly the same as Vino Blanco - I was struggling with no.2 - the one with Diego Forlan warming-up for Man U - until I saw the flag at the back of the stand. Same with White Hart Lane - recognised the name on the pub.

As said above if you can remember the players/kits that helps - I only knew the difference between St Andrew's and the Hawthorns because West Brom were in their away kit.

[Lord Beamish]

9/10. Fellows Park stumped me.

[1989_claret]

Don’t know why number two is part of the quiz? It isn’t an old v new stadium pic. It’s a new stand Northampton built which still hasn’t been finished.

[claretandy]

9/10, missed white hart lane.

[Bfc]

8/10

[THEWELLERNUT70]

7 for me

[Dark Cloud]

6 out of 10 for me and even recognised the match in the last one as Magpies v Forest 1974 in the ill fated FA cup 6th round match which was held up and restarted and eventually completely replayed due to serious crowd trouble. It was the match which then led to Newcastle playing Burnley at Hillsobough, but if it had been allowed to play out as per the original game we'd have been playing Forest who were leading 3-1 with time running out when the Geordie fans decided to take things into their own hands.

[Clarets4me]

bump ...

[ten bellies]

8 out of 10. Stadium MK and and Selhurst Park wrong.

[IanMcL]

6 for me.

[tybfc]

9/10. Selhurst Park wrong and I've been there so many times so that's peed me off.

[South West Claret.]

8/10 good competition this.

[claretgimmer]

10 sorry for being old, had to use clues on a few

[ClaretTony]

I bet you have been to them all when they looked as they did in the pics

You didn't need the smileys - I have although I'm not sure I can recall the WHL entrance looking like that but my first visit there was in 1966.

[MG70]

7 for me.

[Clarets4me]

8 out of 10. Got Molyneux wrong and Selhurst Park. How could anyone get Fellows Park wrong? There is an ad board for the local Walsall paper

That old side terrace at Molyneux, the covering of which loks like 8 large detatched houses have simply had their roofs uplifted and deposited on stanchions ... usually a give away ..
