I believe a Speedway team have it don't they or did that fall through too?

I know there was mention of some company in Darlington / Boro having one of our stands in storage but I don't know which.

Think the last reports were that it had pretty much all been stolen from wherever it was being stored.

I am sure it could be of benefit to the club to get more official confirmation mind. Would be good if those on here who said to know something previous could send an email to the club with the name of the owners of the stand.

Even if it is true there is nowt left the club will have all info available to them. There could be some useful materials left!?

surely if it had been stolen if it has then would it not be insured by the storage company? maybe georgie boy got shot of it.

That's the tin shed. Thought the stand being asked about was the stand formerly known as the Worthington then Carlsberg, not sure it was ever Carling?

Think MSD have gone bust! Mind you the stand (or whats left of it) is still in one of their yards.

You can see some of the long concrete sections in this link. If you go to the yard you can see some of the handrail sections too, complete with ITV Digital logos on them still!
