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.
