How Good Is Your Geographic? [5]

Too local for anybody else to know it, ofcourse such things do not apply to anfield ;-)

Sorry in advance - Sticking with a football theme. Where would you be if you entered a stadium in one country to watch the game in another?
NB. you are watching the game live it is not a trick question (there might be more than one answer - not sure about this)

Monaco play in the French league. Is that what you mean?

Not what I mean. Monaco play in Monaco which is one country. In the way you mean there is also Berwick who play in Scotland and the Wellington Phoenix who play is Australia.

What I am thinking of is where you physically enter the ground in one country and watch the match in another

What countries would share such a "friendly" borders..unless these are "fake" (only football) countries like Wales/NI
Do you need to carry a passport for such a game?

Does the Vatican have a football ground?
Where popes play

"Marcher Sound - Number One In Chester and that's official"

Chester City played at the Deva Stadium which kind of straddles the England-Wales border, I think. It's named after the Deva Victrix which was the original Roman fortress which eventually turned into the city of Chester.
I remember it as a pathetic ground with steel fencing around three sides and if the ball went over the fences, it landed in open fields.

The problem is that they fell out of the Conference Premier because they went into administration; so unless there's a replacement team playing at the ground, the answer might be wrong.

[anfield5]

You would be in Chester. The entry to Diva Stadium is in Wales, while the pitch and stands are in England

[anfield5]

Oh and Chester City didn't just fall out of the Conference, they ceased to exist, but Chester FC was formed instead

If I am correct, then this is the next question.

Every single night, the BBC mentions the name of a place that was a republic for two whole days and then wasn't any more.
Where is this place, why does the BBC name call it every night?

[Storm]

since I don't listen to the beeb daily, I will have to guess wildly - do you mean the country became a republic and then went back to being..say a monarchy?

like Australia almost did?
