Nice one Oxfordshire Saint, have to say struggling with most of these but I'll take a couple of shot's - one confident, one not so sure:

 

1) the old Stadium of Light in Lisbon

2) This one I'm fairly sure is De Meer, Ajax's old ground

Correct, the former Estadio da Luz and Ajax's pokey old De Meer, good spot on the Ajax one, the small pic made it even harder, couldn't find a decent sized one!

3.) Barcalona's Olympic stadium, home to Espanyol?

 

Correct again, only replaced last year.

 

Anyone else for the remaining two? One is a Champions League regular, the other appears now and again but is one of the larger sides in their country.

is 4 a ground in the czech republic? if it is Ostrava?

 

Tis not.

 

Give you a clue (or two), it's in Germany and it's no longer in use.

 

The other stadium nobody has got is also now defunct.

 

Both belonged to large sides who have sinced moved to state of the art stadiums.

Schalke? Im guessing this is the team that appear now and again in Europe?

 

Think you're right Townhill.

 

Is the last one Porto's old stadium, Das Antas? The giveaway is when they did the last expansion, they dug out the athletics track & dug down so the lowest ring of seats are seperated out as they are the newest seats.

Correct and correct.

 

Schalke's old Parkstadion and Porto's Estadio das Antas, since replaced by the impressive Dragao.

Haven't been on here since I said "Eastville" but l'dol when I saw all the south west grounds listed, cos I've been to most of them ! Ninian, Weston-S-M, Gloucester... weirdly not Twerton though, despite numerous opportunities.

 

And I got Elm Park and thought it was the Olympic Stadium pre-roof, fwiw. :prayer:

The Montjuic really was a terrible ground, no atmosphere, the stands are miles away from the pitch, no wonder Espanyol still didn't even fill it when they played Barcelona.

Yeah I went there last June, pretty run down place and wasn't surprised that Espanyol moved. Did look quite impressive outside though.

Anyone know this badboy? One of only two "matchbox" stadiums in Europe (that I am aware of!)

That would be Vitesse Arnhem's Gelredrome.

That was a bit hard yeah, anyway it was Lille.

 

Sorry Majestic, can you check that one cos the way the junctions are set up, it must be a UK ground.

 

It certainly isn't Lille's current ground (which has a running track), haven't checked out their old ground.
