Interesting to read that there was a football ground in operation long before 1923 , assuming it was on the same site as the stadium built that year ? Excellent reading as always
Yeah, the speedway stadium was originally built for athletics in 1886 (I think). It's not clear though whether St Mark's played in the same spot or in another part of Jennison's Field.
