Good news although this leaves it open for them to carry on using Plainmoor if they feel like it. There is no definitive 'end' announced in the article. Surely the league will not allow them to pick and choose as they see fit (and with likely pressure from us to rest the pitch)?
Highly doubt the National League would allow them to do that .... :rules: Think its fair to say that, having applied to return (and lets face it, it was Peter Masters declared intention to want to do that) and having passed their ground grading inspection presumably ... they must surely be back for good ..... well until next season, anyway! Like we all suggested, think it was simply a case of PM “cashing in” on the bumper NYD gate receipts - cant blame him really, given the dreadful crowds they have been getting up here. It also means that those two postponed games (of which the rearranged game v St. Albans on Tuesday was one) in December should now attract better support back home - so it all makes sense (commercially at least!) really.
