A bit of stadium trivia
Which two stadiums have hosted a Cricket test match, a England football international and the FA Cup final ?

Love the Oval it’s a great venue. A couple of years back play stopped due to rain & a couple of us wandered around the members area looking at all the various paintings & memorabilia it took a couple of hours but was well worth it. The Surrey members love Yorkshire playing there as they set up a separate bar which serves nothing else but Yorkshire bitter. The stock normally only lasts 2 days thoughrigger wrote: The Oval ?

Agreed I much prefer the Oval to Lords, only been once to each ground but the people at Lords were very stuck up and were completely different in South London.

Was going to post the above. I think Sheffield was fairly obvious with the cricket ground and football ground in the same stadium but was guessing the Oval due to the size.Mr Russell wrote:The Oval, London

I think the Oval was turned into allotments during the war.
I once played against Don Revie.
