Stourbridge FC fans turn out in force to support club at first match following bombshell ground news
@Source: expressandstar.com
The football club are facing an "extremely costly" and "stressful" period ahead - having been told that the existing floodlights and some stands must be taken down as they are situated too closely to the banks which surround the War Memorial Ground.
The amendments must be made following the final home fixture of the current campaign against Bromsgrove Sporting on April 21 as currently, some of the stands are sitting atop unstable grounds.
Stourbridge FC confirmed the game will be the last one in which their 137-year-old home will exist in its "present guise".
Stourbridge have worked with structural engineers following a deterioration of the banks. The ground is also the base of Stourbridge Cricket Club, and the place where star midfielder Jude Bellingham played as a youngster.
