Call it a hunch Cat, had a inkling it was French. Paris ? Then thought its be Lyon.
Somewhere I'd love to visit.
France what a beautiful Country.

Re: Name the famous sports stadium/ground
Is it one of the stadiums built for the 2018 World Cup, in Russia?

Re: Name the famous sports stadium/ground
Looks to have a retractable roof. Can't be many of those in Europe.
It's not Cardiff Millenium stadium, as that has a river next to it.
I'll guess at Amsterdam Arena.

Re: Name the famous sports stadium/ground
Given the high bridges to the top left going over to a rocky banking, it can't be Amsterdam. Also red roofs are typical in the mediterranean (and parts of central Europe). Don't know many large mediterranean cities with a river, but Porto springs to mind.WestgateRun wrote: ↑Fri Mar 05, 2021 5:37 pm Looks to have a retractable roof. Can't be many of those in Europe.

Re: Name the famous sports stadium/ground
Rich - have missed your ticket stub collection - given you seemingly had one for virtually every ground in the domestic league when we went through those grounds last year.
I bet a pre-match pint over there cost you a few bob, even back then

Re: Name the famous sports stadium/ground
You’re not wrong, I seem to remember it working out between £8-£12 per pint depending how close it was to the Marina.

Yes and it looks like they’re all double sixes !
Don’t think you’ll have a ticket for this ground Rich. I can’t recall us playing them (but we may have done years ago)?

Sounds interesting Lumi.
I’m no great lover of technology as such, but have to say that I think Google Earth is great......and saves the need for many a site visit at work.
