Benefits Of A New Stadium

[Oakleyson]

A good article about the benefits of a new stadium, from Chesterfields point of view:

To quote:

1. "It has taken a lot longer than he initially anticipated but, after several unsuccessful attempts to secure a new site"

2. "At first glance, the move appears to have transformed the Derbyshire club, who currently top the League Two table with the best home record in the Football League"

3. "But the impact extends far beyond what happens on the pitch"

4. "At Saltergate, the club only generated income on the 40 or so days a year when they hosted games. Now they have year-round revenue streams"

5. "It has given the entire town a lift"
