I don't think anyone here would bat an eyelid either if DVS were to be demolished and rebuilt as a facility fit for purpose. For all the moaning that Tony Minichiello has done about the demolition, neither he nor Jessica Ennis has, as far as I can see, done a thing about "saving" it.

Fact is, she needs a track to train on. She doesn't need the stands.

The new stadium at York will be used by York City as well as the Knights or so my brother in law, a York City season ticket holder, tells me.

I was told on Sunday that the plan is to play there for another season or two, then have a season at KitKat Crescent and the new ground should be ready the following season.

Where will Eagles play if the proposed new development doesn't go ahead?

Groundshare with Shuddersfield, I think.

I presume DV will stay open until after the playoffs?

Would've thought so. The last possible date is 22 September.
