Well spotted P/W, so this ?

Could be the 78 match or 77 and Poskett scored a hat-trick ?

Yes I went to that with my dad - near Christmas?

Slim folk only!

Isn't that the back of the Arthur Wait, today?

Edit: somebody beat me to that one

I haven't got a scooby LBG! Sort of looks a bit like Hereford, but Edgar Street is still alive so not that, I guessed you living in similar area to me it might be localish? But its not Derby, Baseball or Stoke Victoria.

ESG, the old abandoned ground that came before the new abandoned ground! Pretty certain it's not Darlington either.

Typical NSC. Given a rubric, the rubric is immediately hurled through the nearest window.

Well, no - it's Borough Park in Workington (see above). But they still play there - so it's a lost stand, but not an abandoned ground!

My error i duly apologise. However what about this one ? A ground no more.

First game at Selhurst v Sunderland ticked it

 

[Man of Harveys]

I saw us there New Year's Day 1985. 1-0 after 46 seconds and held on for dear life for the remainder of the match.

Remember that game very well, not least as I’d drunk the best part of a bottle of vodka the night before. I was 14. That game remains for me the ultimate truly painful one: yes an early goal but after that an Alamo-like siege for 89 minutes, in the cold and nursing a teenage hangover.
