The Stamford Bridge one reminded me of going to watch us play Chelsea in the League Cup in 1968. Most Rams supporters were in the old North stand in a corner and when we got excited the whole stand moved.
It was condemned as unsafe not long after!
Good match though
Pretty good that VC 👍. Did you notice how FULL the grounds were in the black and white photos?
Nice one VC
The clues are there, if you look for them, especially for us old gits.
Got Ibrox wrong though -saw the lion rampant and hastily chose Villa
Loftus road is still the same wee hole 30 years later

yeah, for quite a few, you could guess by the players, the kits, the badges, and even in one case....the name of the stadium was on show

I got 7 out of 10. Ridiculously, I didn't get the Meadow Lane one, and I used to go past that stand on the odd occasion the Pies gave our primary school complimentary tickets!

Could have changed your destiny for the better there, sph....
Well I got 10 out of 10. As mentioned there were plenty of clues as to which ground it was even if you had never been there. Fulham hardly looks any different and Filbert Street looks better now than it did then.
Really enjoyed that, cheers. Brought back some memories.
I got 8 out of 10, I got meadow Lane right because one of the cars had a Derby registration on it! I got Villa Park wrong, I never remember it being that decrepit.
Do any of our older (spart and ramdini) posters remember the old stand at Chelsea? This is one of my favourite memories.
For that match in the league Cup I went on a bus trip. The driver said we should come back straight to the bus and we would have a drink later somewhere. We never expected to get a draw and reluctantly I went back to the bus. An hour or two later several passengers arrived at the bus the worse for wear and couldn't believe we all hadn't gone celebrating. They weren't very popular with the rest of us.
Wonderful days and King's Road was good fun.
I remember Stamford Bridge from the late eighties when it had the main stand and three delapidated stands. There was always those pale blue three wheelers parked around the pitch.
7/10.
I only got Meadow Lane by the Mk1 escort, which has a Derbyshire registration (RB), which was closer than the other options!
9.i even surprised myself.
