Parkgate welcomes new home for Millers
29 January 2010
The search is over for a new ground for Rotherham United FC, and it is to be on the vacant Guest and Chrimes site.
Club Chairman, Tony Stewart announced with great pride and pleasure: “ This is an ideal site for our new home here in Rotherham. It will also provide significant regeneration benefits and leave a legacy for the future, for the club and the town. Rotherham MBC has played a pivotal role in this process, and we are very grateful for all their help and support.
“Our town needs a football club to be proud of playing in a stadium to be proud of providing facilities for our community to be proud of.”
The announcement was welcomed by Parkgate Shopping, one of the club’s main sponsors. Parkgate Manager, Denis Copeland, said: “ This is great news for the whole town, and I can already detect a buzz around the place as people share their own pleasure with the news.”
