What's The Ground Like?

The club's ground and facilities are to undergo major refurbishment in the coming years. Chairman Rob Yong revealed he has been in negotiations with Broxtowe Borough Council to purchase the ground or agree a 99 year lease and he expects a positive result over the next few months.

Rob also presented drawings to the forum, the plans showed new terracing holding 1900 fans behind both goals and a new seated stand replacing the Mabe Allan Stand almost down the entire length of the pitch. This will give the club three fully enclosed stands and a capacity of well over 5,000.

With the plans for the academy and the other projects, the club are in negotiations with the local authorities to take over the existing all weather pitch situated within Coro Park along with the changing rooms.
