‎"They supercede individuals, they supercede the team and they supercede the club. Our club is a traditional, working class club and the supporters are loyal and passionate and to see them go away happy really makes my day." Craig Sandercock.:7063.jpg



Quote: Erik the not red "NCP is by far the worst relatively modern stadium I have seen anywhere in any sport. By the 1980's it was possible to build stadiums with unrestricted views anywhere in the ground and there is really no excuse for the abortion the dobbins put up especially considering they effectively had a blank canvas with no restrictions on alignment and such. Yet they still had seats in the best stand where you couldn't see all the pitch. Unbelievably poor but that's why its the worst, they can't even get the barest basics right.

Its one thing to be lumbered with stands that date from the 1950's and earlier and having to make the best you can to improve but to start off rubbish, when the ability to do better existed, as at NCP is inexcusable.

I would be interested if any dobbins apologists can come up with a worse stadium or even stand than NCP of similar vintage.'"


I agree our stadium is not the best and it never will be however you have clubs like Wakefield and Catleford who have promised improvements and never even remotely got close to delivering. We where ed over with Craven Park and we should have had a far better stadium delivered in 1989 that never happened and that's History. What the new regime ala Hudgell have done under severe financial constraints is massive. In the last 6 years we've delivered.

1) New £400k Pitch.
2) New Bars(Especially the massive East stand bar)
3) New Turnstyles
4) Bought the North Stand. (+1261 Capacity)
5) East Stand extension(+1500 capacity)
6) Opened the Rotary youth club
7) New Gym under East stand

And soon to be built
1) New North Stand (+2600 Capacity)
2) 2nd East stand extension (+1500 Capacity)

We haven't exactly being stood still on the stadium front.

We see the worst of Rovers because we get allocated the South stand but there is still the choice to get tickets in the north. Rovers have done what most clubs would do, they have concentrated on improving the areas that their own fans sit/stand and you cannot blame them for that. Imagine the stick they would get from their own fans if they decided to make sure the visitors were sorted out before themselves.
Yes it is one of the poorer stadiums but for me you can put Leeds, Wakefield and Bradford all in the same bracket.

Leeds ground is only really substandard for the away fans during adverse weather otherwise it's great.

On the other foot though which away ground provide the best facilities?
I'd go with The Stoop, nice ground, nice bar and if you stay after the game a band and a chat with the players.

There's no way Headingley and Belle Vue can be classed in the same bracket.
