Nuno Gomes Posted April 23, 2020 Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/52394131 BBC have a quiz and we are mentioned having chosen to revamp rather than creat new. “Bristol City's Ashton Gate is now a Premier League-ready stadium, with an ambitious ownership and promotion-chasing team hoping to fulfil the promise across the board. It's been 40-odd years since the city had a top flight club. Too long for a proper football area.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elhombrecito Posted April 23, 2020 Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 That would have been a good quiz, but for some reason they decided to basically give away each answer in the text. I could have got them all correct without even looking at the photos! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing it's City v Liverpool 1977-78 finished 1-1 Cormack got City's late equaliser from a free kick having earlier missed a penalty.

handsofclay Posted April 23, 2020 Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 Actually, upon closer inspection it could be the City v Liverpool preseason friendlyAugust 1985. Changed my mind as some of clothing sported by the spectators seems post 1970s and I cannot detect diamonds on the City sleeves, and the covered end has a red roof.Was black during our time in the top flight.

Ska Junkie Posted April 23, 2020 Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 Too easy with the clues, either clues or pictures would have been better. Our place doesn't half look like a smaller version of Anfield doesn't it, in those pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ptr6 Posted April 23, 2020 Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 My guess was either of the 88 play offs - Sheff Utd or Walsall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I struggled with the Newcastle one if any. With the description it was simple tho.
