@w4rner no the previous Plough Lane stadium was sold to Safeway in 1998 and it was was demolished in 2002 but permission for a supermarket was turned down so the land was further sold on & turned into flats by 2008 the location of the new stadium Plough Lane is at the other end of the same road ,200 yards difference, where Wimbledon Greyhound Stadium use to be.

@adamprocter that's amazing you could do same road. For my 2nd team southampton: i grew up at the The Dell, and was sad when it became flats and i'd feel bad about that, but st marys actually represents a true return to the original place (That's why we're called the saints).

@w4rner I watched Wimbledon play at the Dell a number of times and have visited Saint Mary’s stadium. Very much a positive move for them. Of course we were exiled from plough lane and then sold down the river - so glad to be back - the final puzzle piece - now onwards and upwards
