Other than that Donny Rovers ground is quite nice ? ... And quite local too, I suppose... to Donnyram's, at least! ? Donnyram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LazloW Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 Perhaps we could go on a tour of Derbyshire grounds. Spread the love to those of us who live further north? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsmini Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 17 minutes ago, Patrick Rams said: But why Leicester or Stoke? Surely given that scenario it would make more sense to share with Notts County? Lovely little ground with a capacity of around 20,000 perfect for League One and only 20 minutes away. It would be very difficult to play at Notts. They already have to juggle dates so they don’t clash with Forest home games. To throw another team into the mix would be a disaster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eatonram Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 Ground sharing would set the Club back for 10 years and decimate income immediately....in short this would be disastrous for DCFC. If necessary we need a stop gap solution even if that means paying a one year lease to MM to buy time to get this sorted... BTW where has it been said that the EFL require a 10 year guarantee of a stadium?? Tamworthram, r_wilcockson, Kathcairns and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparkle Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 54 minutes ago, Mucker1884 said: Effectively, County have to play at home when Fo*est play away, and visa versa. There'd be nowhere to slot us in. Never going to happen (imo). EDIT: Fixture-wise, Burton would work (as their only "local rival" is us)... but that's just far too small, I guess? We could of course play either on the Sunday or Friday nights like Tranmere used to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
