Amazing to think that a third tier rugby club own the arena ground now.

Is that what that stadium is for?


Up the Albion!!!


EDIT: After trying to stand out and being different AND backing a winner by cheering the Albion I now realize I did attend the derby match at this ground in 2007 with Hartlepool. Well over the usual few thousand. My mate begged me to go with him.

Absolutely crazy how they went from Feethams, with average crowds of 2-3k, straight into a 25k stadium.

The sheer vanity of the project defies belief. George Reynolds killed that club.

Fantastic news. They're a lovely club and should never have left Feethams. I went to several games there when I was a student locally and it was a great place to watch football.

Completely agree, Feethams was a lovely ground. I lived in the area in 1979/80 and was a regular for a year. I still look back fondly on the entrance gate, the walk around the cricket pitch and being able to change ends at half time.
