Was a proper rough shithole back in the day

I see they owed Campbell £173k (I'm not saying he should have waived it), that's an incredible amount for a club in the financial trouble they were already in to pay a manager who was there for 10 months. Or am I out of touch and lots of league 2 managers are on £4k per week?

Unless the story's changed it wasn't Campbell that was owed the money but John Askey.

Hmm, I think the BBC might have changed the article, I'd forgotten Campbell had been their manager until I read it. Or I'm going really loopy, which is entirely possible.
 
Nice little ground. Went there as a neutral a few times when working in Manchester. Very friendly people. Odd stand behind one end, where there were a few rows of seating, but the traditional 'home end' standing area was behind you. Always felt really close to the pitch, it was a real throwback. I hope they can continue playing football there at some level.

The liquidator will sell it to the highest bidder. Unless it's listed as a community asset, I can't see it surviving. As for the football, it's a phoenix club situation.
