It’s hard to pinpoint if this is home or away.
I’m going for the old away end at Stoke.
Sent to me by a good mate who is a Stokie.
Any thoughts ?
BTW it’s definitely Swansea, I know two in the photo and at least one who has passed away.

Definitely Swans, I know 2 or 3 in the photo, was it a mid week game ? I went to the Victoria mid 80s but can't remember if it was a Saturday or evening game. | | | |

I think behind the goal when I went but could be wrong, just remember the bar having wire mesh screen with a gap to get your pint under which was slightly lower than the height of the plastic glass and having to tip it to get it out! | | | |

Good point, under the old stand on the west.
It’s just the background that confuses me, looks like seats ? | |

100% Ninian Park Grandstand
I was in that stand with 2 of my mates towards the top of the stand but not in that photo I know about 8 boys in that photo(one who had a nice head of blonde hair but bald now lol! and cardiff fans saying he didn't start going to the football until 00's when this is clearly 80's) ,randomly cardiff gave us about 150 tickets for in there and they got snapped up pretty quick |  |

I think it was boxing day 1987? We all went up on coaches because of no trains and on the way back seeing about 3,4 car full of fans fighting each other stopped on the M4 hard shoulder near Bridgend
In that photo they are looking towards to Swansea fans in the terracing and singing back and forth "who the fencking ell are you" there was a big green & yellow flag that said FC DEN HAAG SWANSEA CITY on it and a home made flag that said Queen's Boys Crew

87/88 we played you in Cardiff early, August, predictably there was loads of trouble mainly with police though as Cardiff fans were the 1st in the uk to be charged with rioting at a match. The away game was NYD 88, helluva game…2-2.
Maybe the photo is a few years later? Looking at the clothing it could easily be mid 90’s for Swansea  |
1986 mate. Confirmed. I think that just another Cardiff cable exploded re Swansea.
There’s a few out there. | |
