Old Pictures of PORTMAN ROAD, & Ipswich.

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.

That's correct Marko, 1 across is Jansen. (I have the answers on page 23).

And 3 down is a number less than one.

Probably easiest if you upload your image to a hosting site such as www.imgur.com and grab the link to the uploaded image to post here.
