Spot the grounds from the air- http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/quiz/2013/may/29/football-quiz-name-stadiums-aerial-view

I got a pathetic 4 out of 10 and when it gave me my mark it said that I might make League 1 via the play-offs. That would do me fine.

Apologies for it being from the Guardian, maybe one of the less fashion conscious 20 year olds working there sneaked it in.

10 rolf

The German one was a guess like the rest pretty easy.

The German one was quite easy to deduce, as was the now-roofed Maracana. The other 3 that I got, I knew, and the rest I had no idea!

You scored 3 out of a possible 10

A loan spell at Hartlepool is calling you (and not even Jeff Stelling is happy about it)

I've always been a bit of geek with grounds.

I remember as a kid wanting to go on 'You Bet!" and do this sort of thing.

Either that or make a cup of tea with a JCB.

Me and friend applied for that. We were going to put together. K-nex swing and see saw combo in under a minute.

Strangely we never got a reply.

2 out of 10, got the German one, and Elland Road because I was just looking at it on Google Maps earlier this week.
