Ginja 26 Posted September 18, 2013 Well we used to play The Nest, so we''ve gone from a stadium not connected to a road name to a stadium connected to a road name.My guess was that the others went from a stadium connected to a road name to a stadium not connected to road name but Ipswich play at Portman Road which we''ve nicknamed Poorman Road which isn''t connected to a road name! right? no... maybe...Am I close?
