![]() | Cwmbran forced back on the road Cwmbran Town will be forced to play all their remaining home League of Wales fixtures at another club's ground. Torfaen County Council, owners of Cwmbran Stadium, have told the club that the ground will be unavailable from Sunday until the end of the season. A new running track is to be laid around the pitch. This is the second time Cwmbran have been forced to leave the stadium. They only returned in January after enduring a 45-match sequence of playing their home games at various other grounds in the area.
He said he was considering ending his 13-year involvement with Cwmbran. "It's all quite farcical and makes me wonder if there is any point in me carrying on after so many kicks in the teeth," Colley told the South Wales Argus. "We were thrown out of the ground in February 2001, yet the redevelopment work did not start for months afterwards and we could have in fact completed our fixtures there. "Instead we had to play our last 14 matches away from home and that cost us �100,000 - an amount a club like ours cannot afford." He added: "Now we have a chance of reaching the Intertoto Cup and we have to play away from home again. "There is only so much you can take and makes me wonder how long I can go on." Cwmbran play TNS at home on Saturday, and have two home league games and one home League of Wales Cup game before the end of the season. | See also: Other top League of Wales stories: Links to more League of Wales stories are at the foot of the page. | ||||
