Is the song cut up in anyway aside from the speeches? I noticed the last guitar solo is shorter compared to other versions from the tour(characteristics of the performance scream 1988).
Leeds? I've heard so many times that particular gig that i can tell, Man on Fire is not from that show.
It's from their German Tour. And not from Munich, Erlanger, Nuremburg, Esslingen, Mannheim or Dusseldorf. And i've another unlabeled show from Germany which doesn't match either.
It could be Dortmund...Who knows...
No. I've got the MEGA space for personal use at the moment. I warned then that files would be online a few weeks only.
Anyway sure someone who downloaded them can help you.
My initial thought was it's from the Fan Club live tape but the date doesn't fit. Not out of the question it's been heavily doctored as live stuff is - especially when no exact date is given.
It's very clear that comes from the German Tour in April 1988.
The bridge of the live version released was sung with some minor differences. There are some performances from that leg of the Tour that "almost" match that brigde.

I’d assumed exactly this - I didn’t think they had the female backing singers after the Shove It! tour (though can anyone confirm?), so unless they had them on any individual dates later on then it would intimate this recording is from the 1988 tour?
The only time they had backing vocalists after the Shove It tour were for Marquee 1992 and the reunion. That, the original release date(November 1990), and Spike's presence(Mike Moran subbed at the 1988 Xmas gig)help to narrow it down.
If you listen to the show shared here years ago, on Bad Attitude (the guitar solo) you can hear in the background doing the same guitar lick (3.19-3:21) ... ( ¿?¿? ) I though it was a pedal effect guitar but no...It's a keyboard...At 3.22 you can hear the guitar alone again...
The strange thing is that until the end Mike is not heard anymore...Very strange...
