    Racing in the foreground and Independiente in the red stadium, Buenos Aires. Anyone know of two closer grounds? Maybe Dundee? 4911A35E-E4F7-4D2E-AFF7-5E7A28A35D27.jpeg

    Llanrumney secondary school and Cardiff University. Just a wire fence between them.

    Yes indeed. I can remember playing at the University ground while the school were also playing over the fence. I'm sure a few over zealous clearances resulted in us not getting our ball back!

    That's where that singer bloke comes from. Apparently he was conceived after a match between the two clubs. Hence Terrence Trent Derby.
    Coat for Clingo please

    Not sure if Malmö in Sweden beats Buenos Aires but they are pretty close neighbours.
