    Old photo (NHC)

    I came across a display about the history of world football, and on the first board I saw the attached photo. Can anybody tell me where and when this photo was taken?

    It looks a bit like Tynecastle.

    I thought that at first but then looked closely at the stand - the one in the photo is definitely newer :)

    Before or after the John Robertson lounge got the calor gas bottles installed?

    If the details on the attached link are correct then it is Stamford bridge. Man U v QPR, First ever Charity Shield game in 1908.

    Use the scroll on the link to scroll along to the picture.

    That's great. Thanks for taking the time to find out.

    Afterwards I did a search on the 1908 Charity Shield photos and came across this guy in Sweden who's written up a history of QPR : http://web.comhem.se/norre/qprart/qpr.html

    My Hibs supporting nephew had hospitality in the JR 'suite' and I told him he'd be fine as long as he remembered to wipe his feet on the way out
    This is how it feels
