Title: Do you know where this is? Post by: wheretherealredsare on Monday, May 14, 2012, 10:59:41 Can anybody help in identifying where this match took place? It is said to be a match in England from the turn of the century. Does anybody recognise the skyline? I think it unlikely that the match itself can be identified.

Title: Re: Do you know where this is? Post by: Costanza on Monday, May 14, 2012, 11:03:15 I think FA Cup finals were held at Crystal Palace.

Title: Re: Do you know where this is? Post by: wheretherealredsare on Monday, May 14, 2012, 11:11:12 Thanks :) I thought maybe Crystal Palace. Well done, especially Barry for the pic. Fancy trying to double your money (1 rouble btw) and go for the match? Possibly a cup final?

Spurs in 1901? Bolton in 1904? Title: Re: Do you know where this is? Post by: Reg Smeeton on Monday, May 14, 2012, 16:07:08 Thanks :) I thought maybe Crystal Palace.
