Saw this on Twitter earlier, and liked it so thought it was worth sharing. Think I'll get one for my office.

It's done by a Manchester based company, as part of their "lost" grounds series (the others are Wembley, Roker Park, and Highbury).

Yeah really nice, I'm going to order one myself... Just a shame it wasn't a picture of the "old Kippax"
 
I have print of Maine road from outside looking at the old ticket office(would you believe) the MEN trailer that used to be there on the car park at side, not a great picture but brings back so many memories. The queues 100 deep to buy tickets, queued for ages,cash only, and then get in and there would be 25,000 at the game!

and the car park at the front is where i bought a ticket for the last ever game at Maine road for £75, having been week in, week out form age of 5 (with dad) then season ticket from 13 years old but shared one that last season with a mate from Ireland.

seems so primitive now

I paid £150 to get in the last game i just had to be there it was such a big part of my life for so long.I remember some stupid woman in a takeaway opposite the ground giving me and the tout grief as we sorted out the deal,no idea why to this day.I resisted the urge to shout,''Fuck off we have kept you in a job for years you ungrateful woman not our fault we are moving!!'' Lol!
 
The view of the Kippax as you walked down the tunnel under the Platt lane stand is one of my favourite memories of Maine rd
