Found this site (just trawling Interweb as you do). Thought it was a really good idea. What do you think? (Highfield Road is in there!)

Looked at it before, scary how many of those old grounds i've been to. Some were complete dumps but had a great atmosphere.

Nice memories!

I remember being in that stand at Burnley, City won 3-1 last game of the season, burnley were relegated from Div 1 (now the prem) and it took them 35 years to get back....for one season only. Not so nice memory of witnessing a dart fly past my face, thrown by one of the adjacent Burnley fans....thankfully no-one was hurt.
