I understand that the arena is owned by former Darlington FC chairman George Houghton not the club, so is not subject to the current administration order
Quote="dids858"I though they were knocking half of the ground down as its too big and costs to much money and were going to build college or hotel or something else on it.'"
Think, and I stress think that the hotel idea was knocked on the head. That was the reason they entered administration. Thnk the hotel idea was the last chance card from the Chairman. They really are in trouble now, only 5 full time staff work at the Arena, having said that I thought they did a great job on Saturday, even the Oldham fans were saying how good it was. Bit sad that Thunder could be the last team ever to play there.
Hopefully Darlo will be saved
George Reynolds has suggested that the council buy the club!!!!! Not sure the residents of Darlo would be happy with their council tax going up about 1150% to pay off the debts
