New ground for Accrington?

Last updated : 07 December 2006 By Andy Van Hagen
Accrington Stanley have indicated they want to leave their Fraser Eagle Stadium and move to a new ground within the town.

The newly promoted League Two club are to go ahead with plans to cover the Clayton Terrace end of their ground, but have started talks over a possible new site. In the mean time they will make minor improvements, not major ones to their existing Fraser Eagle Stadium.

Chairman Eric Whalley told the BBC: "We are ambitious and want to move on. We can have one more promotion here but don't want to make major improvements."

This shows that Accrington Stanley have set their ambitions to aquiring Championship football.
