    To where? Not sure they could afford another new ground, particularly if they are on L1. Although with it being made of Lego they could take it down bit by bit and rebuild it somewhere else, "Now where are those instructions?".

    Link doesnt work for me but no I really dont think a move would be in their interests.

    There's been talk in Donny council, don't know how serious it is but I did see it on Look North, about them knocking it down because it costs too much!

    John Ryan wanted it last season, there's a meeting on Thursday about it.
    I can't see it been knocked down to be honest

    Read somewhere that Donny had another 19 years left on their lease...so they'll have a bit of time to think about it...

    It'll get knocked down, John Ryan can't afford to buy it, he's still to find £5 million to cover the shortfall for this season.

    Maybe they'll get it free?

    Could have been the plan all along to donate it Rovers.

    Council couldn't get away with building a stadium for Rovers at tax payers expense, but if they wait a few years, say it isn't profitable, they can donate it, doing tax payers a 'favour' by getting rid of a white elephant.

    Not that I am being cynical.
