Nope that's not the reason at all......or maybe it is...because it is not going to be built. The Allerdale council exec. have kicked the stadium plans into touch. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And Derwent Park's first full season was 1956/57.....a trial league match was played in 1955....so both had better days shall we say. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Neila 1,155 Posted July 5, 2019 Allerdale council also announced today that no garden waste or tin/plastic recycling will be collected for at least 2 months, so something in the council must be in a pretty poor place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe they don't need the trash now, cos they don't need to knock a new stadium up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
