Where is that venue

A place to chat about anything thats not football related. Most of the threads in here are completely pointless which is why people keep coming back and back. As the forum title suggests, feel free to make any post you want on any subject you wish. It also has Adult jokes (so be warned) which is the other reason people keep coming back.

Clue. when I said they there moving to Northumberland, that could have been a trick to send you all in the wrong direction. (which worked)

Clue; when I said about the foxes up on the roof after its dinner, football ground has a bird on the roof. 8)

Damn it I considered Tottenham as an answer but was fixated on a venue in the North of England

The European Final must have been the UEFA Cup with Wolverhampton in '72 or whenever it occured

Hopefully the latest round should prove more simplistic and prohibit shooting off in different directons - Can recall Crystal Palace having a fire incident some years back but not aware of too many others, and it's not Valley Parade Bradford

Take an attempt at Maine Road Manchester but understand it's a shot in the dark and nothing more
