St John's would be an awful location for a stadium though. Not a pub for miles!
Dead right Pedalo, the debate over Farlington has been done to death and the consensus was that it was not suitable.
As you say, no pubs in the area, no rail station nearby and difficulty getting cars out of the car park in a reasonable time frame.
It would force everyone to drive or take buses to the stadium and a fair number of those who walk to the ground now probably wouldn’t bother.
Also too exposed to the elements on a wet winter’s evening.
A thoroughly BAD idea.
