Endeavour 681 Posted May 24, 2022 Sad news. There was a rumour going about this was last season. Lot of time and effort gone into Academy and the three other teams to have no alternative venue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shadders 4,134 Posted May 24, 2022 First went to Armadale in 2005. Each year I’ve noticed the new housing getting closer. It was only a matter of time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

arnieg 3,620 Posted May 24, 2022 Like Lakeside and Peterborough we've all known that it would be a matter of when not if these stadiums would fall to redevelopment. On the plus side Edinburgh have one of the most stable promotions going and have I believe been actively searching for a new home. The Monarchs have a dedicated following, I hope there is some good news for them soon. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Think it s fair to say that Edinburgh Council have never been very supportive or helpful in finding a new home within the City.Wallyford comes to mind with the Stand structure built for the supposedly new Grey hound Stadium being there for at least 20 years but no sign of Stadium,even that has been sold on now to a business.It was just a big con by some Irishman to get the housing development up and running,he had no intentions of building the Stadium.
