Apparently the old stadium is about to be demolished but it's not clear when work starts on the replacement one? I hope that this doesn't turn into another Reading based on false hopes. Anybody any news (I can't find any reliable information) as Blunsdon holds many memories for yours truly? Hmm...and still counting! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cityrebel 2,960 Posted July 1, 2020 I'd be amazed if any new stadium got built in the current financial climate. Staying in business would be an achievement. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
