Judging by the jeans they're wearing, 1988.

A beer and smoke at pitchside, could only dream of that in the modern game.

used to be able to "smoke Town to score" at the CG - which you can only attempt now in your own home listening to STFC Player

The GWR pitchside hoarding indicates 1989-1991 to me - heady days

Bloke on the left stood up is wearing an England away shirt worn at Italia 90 by our boys I believe.

Only know this as I bought a reproduced retro one this year.

I can guarantee the time of day... 6:09pm

Also based on the facts that...
There are leaves on the tree's and they are green (Rules out October - March)
The condition of the pitch is very good (Rules out every game from October onwards!)
The sun is relatively low for 6:09pm (Rules out October to March)
The advertising hoardings are circa 1990
The England top is circa 1990

This photo was taken in September 1990 - probably the Wolves game... Tuesday 18th September at 6:09pm...

It was certainly before The Arkells seats were out in at the front, which happened in 92

I love that clock, I've wished it slower and faster depending on the game.

Think the 1990 date is about right, although it could have been any day really as the old social club used to be open in those days.The doors used to open out onto the area shown and people were able to go out there all the time.
