Great news, like the Heed. I went to see Heed play at Prenton Park last season. May be able to see Sunderland there next (and I will be going).
Relegated to the National League North, so it could have been worse. Apologies to Gateshead Council as it looks like a 10 year lease has been agreed. Should be interesting with the likes of Blyth, Darlo, Spennymoor in the mix. Promotion at first attempt hopefully.
I sure they were planning on building a new stadium next to the council offices. Where the bowls club is
It was to be built on the site of the old North Durham Rugby/Cricket Club pitches on Prince Consort Road. Tied in with a proposed new Medical Centre, but it died a slow death through lack of finance, planning and locals being against it.
