highlandcityfan Posted May 23, 2020 Report Share Posted May 23, 2020 Hi folks. So, it's just gone 3pm on Saturday - a time that I imagine reasonates quite strongly with all of us. In the absence of a match, I have a new edition of my quiz which I hope finds you all well. The answers here are English footy grounds from the top 5 tiers (mainly present, but some past as well), with a tiny handful of other English sports venues. The initials are provided. Please note, there are so many names comprising ‘stadium’, ‘park’, ‘lane’ and so forth (e.g. London Stadium) I have included some of these words in the clues, but not for all as I thought it might get a tad boring and repetitive ie. A lot of the clues might simply point to the first word of the name of the ground. I hope you all enjoy playing again!! Stay safe. Also, as you are sending your answers in, I will try to reply asap, but will be combining this with finishing the housework, so might take me a few mins!!
