      Re: A League One grounds quiz.

      This is a fantastic quiz, thanks for posting. Shockingly I'm struggling to place City. I think 11 is Teading but I really don't recognize 7 as being Ninian Park. Is it the old Canton Stand?

      1 Must be Port Vale, as I know that isn't as old as many grounds (andi it looks like it!)

      2 Doncaster

      3 Luton

      4 Rotherham

      5 Must be the County Ground in Northampton?

      6 Stockport

      7 Don't know? City? 🙈

      8 Bradford

      9 by process of elimination, Blackpool

      10 Huddersfield

      11 don't know, Reading?

      12 By process of elimination, Stevenage?

      13 Peterborough

      14 Wigan

      15 don't know

      16 Wimbledon

      17 Plymouth

      18 Burton

      19 Exeter

      20 Leyton Orient

      21 Bolton

      22 Wycombe

      23 Mansfield

      24 Barnsley

          Don’t look at Mr Wales’ reply Des, he’s got all but one of them right.

                  Respect to James Wales, he was rapid there. But, surely, he should've said he got Blackpool by a process of illumination, not elimination? It was an open goal, he shouldn't be missing chances like that at this level.

                    I think he was a bit dim on that one.

                        Yep, he was towering above all other posters, pierless and a rock amongst men, fair dues.

                          Playing Devil's Advocate, I suppose it could be said he only had a bunch of donkeys to beat.

                            True, but he did go the extra (golden) mile.

                              He was a rock compared to the rest.
