The two biggest league grounds Notts have played in

[upthemaggies]

Stamford Bridge?

That's one I hadn't thought of and pushes Ground B into third place. Stamford Bridge had a capacity of 100,000 when we first played there, though they never got more than 82,905.

Villa Park?

Clue for Ground A, the biggest of the lot.

We never lost a league game, home or away, to the host club.


Another clue for Ground B, albeit now 3rd biggest.

Hosts are currently in the Championship.

I think Jeff Astle only played for Notts in divisions 3 and 4? So a team that have gone up and down the leagues a bit, errr....

Their best days were ahead of them, but not at that stadium. Bizarrely, they had two spells at Ground B, our fixture there was the first game of their return to the ground.

That's us playing at ground B, probably in a change gold strip.


Edit: Zooming in, we must be wearing the darker shirts. It wasn't unheard of to borrow the home clubs change strip in those days, but if that's the case, we'd probably be wearing red!

I'm stumped! Although that looks like an athletics track...

I reckon that's the White City Stadium. If so, we played QPR there in 1962/63 (won 1-0). I think it was also used in the 1966 World Cup.
