Post by: philsky on May 06, 2024, 09:09:57 pm: 11,250 in there for their L1 play off against Peterborough.

Maybe we can edge higher than that.

Post by: Herman Hessian on May 06, 2024, 10:03:55 pm: the ground's still owned by a company run by the bloke who was in charge when it was built - who - basically - has got the arse with the club over some trivial, historically outstanding debts, and has refused them permission to build on his land ever since - splendidly petulant on his part; more practically, the place has never sold out in its twenty three year history so why bother making it any bigger...???

Post by: Chris Black come back on May 06, 2024, 10:18:50 pm: “The club is now in a race against time to open a new stadium by the summer of 2026. If we can’t open by the start of the 2026 season, we will be homeless. Playing out of the county is something none of us want, even for a short while and we can’t contemplate a long-term move away, as it would mean a loss of our name, identity, and heritage.”
