Do they really need a 10,000 capacity ground? Wayne Gold has a history of trying to relocate / develop football grounds for property.

It’s not a bad ground at all for Conference South and I remember going when Oxford were there. plenty of parking available tooas it’s outside of town.
I can recall a few years ago they used to get good crowds so there is potential there.

The capacity I think has already been revised down to somewhere between 6k-7.5k.

Being from Woking, I regularly went to midweek games at Kingfield in their 1970s Isthmian League days when crowds were circa 300.

There's no doubt in my mind that a decent season in L2 could see regular home crowds of 3,000 to 3,500.

If you haven't been to Woking recently, there is a a huge town centre redevelopment, and a number of 30 story blocks are going up. I don't think though that the football club will ever be able to build a big support base.

Who knows they might get 7000 for the visit of Aldershot
