The article itself states "an indefinite ban while his membership of the club was cancelled"

Doing what they can for their business but also keeping traditions alive. Hope it works out for them

Feel for people who own businesses around the ground with no possibility of moving, really do.

It isnt going to work and its sad really.

Strange. I read the article but now it appears to be behind a pay wall. Not sure the steps to get around that. I know some on here know how though.

Does anyone know why they are digging up the pitch?

On the drone videos I've heard that the original pitch was too uneven and bumpy, that it had to do with putting in the concrete bases for the rugby posts (although I don't see why they would need to dig up the entire pitch), and the the FA and UEFA weren't satisfied with the pitch.

Hope the club give him a special day

Was always the plan. Initial pitch was laid in order to get the test events done but as it was grown over winter it wasn't grown to its optimal specification. Taking it up and relaying it now allows growing in spring and summer, meaning it will be at its best for the start of next season. They haven't taken up the woven fibres, just the grass.

Nah, i prefer the drama-filled conspiracy theory.

Thanks though
