Historic Name That Ground – Week 33 Answer

Well, did you recognise this ground? On Monday I asked: ‘Can you name the ground featured in the image above? This is a 1950s photo of this ground during a pitch invasion (bonus point for anyone who knows what this game was and why there was a pitch invasion). The ground remains a major sporting venue today and I’m sure many subscribers to my site will recognise it.’

The answer is Oldham Athletic’s Boundary Park and the game/pitch invasion? Those on the pitch were apparently Everton supporters celebrating promotion in 1954.
