She's in a sorry state
Heartbreaking to see Nene Park in such a state, so many good memories from this place.

Great photos, are there any more? I quite like looking at grounds that have been abandoned.

Re: She's in a sorry state
A very hypothetical question, but here goes:
If you won the Euro Millions on Friday night (I don't know how much it is this week, let's say £90million) would you, probably via a third party, to ensure KC didn't know the true identity of the buyer, buy Nene park off him and develop the new AFCRD there. A base for all the teams, together as one with such fantastic facilities and if you did, how much would you be willing to pay/plough in, to bring it back to former glory?

Re: She's in a sorry state
No, I wouldn't want to put a penny in that man's pocket. Nene Park is part of our past now, I'd invest in some land to build a stadium befitting our size, with space to develop as we progress and enough room for pitches for all our community sides. I have a perfect plan in my headbedforddiamond wrote:A very hypothetical question, but here goes:

NP would just give us a massive weight around our necks that would drag us down.
