The Hallucinating Goose Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Im tempted with 8 but I do not remember that multi-storey car park being on the side of the ground, I thought it was on the end, unless the perspective on that picture is a little off.

Padge Posted April 11, 2020 Author Share Posted April 11, 2020 I only came in late but that fence looks like the Boulevarde's perimeter fence if memory serves. I'm sticking I think that is the curve ball.

Good answer, I was leaving that cos there was loads of grounds that had that same sort of design, roof covering the main bulk of the stand and open corners, could have been a whole load of places.

The Hallucinating Goose Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Right, colour picture so not a club that went defunct absolutely ages ago (presuming it is a non-existing club now), tower blocks so probably in a city (so possibly Manchester or Leeds), looks like a small, rather ramshackle ground so just going on that I will say a small club as well.
