Park Road Stadium
- ... that Manchester United opened Manchester City's former training ground after floodlights were installed? Source: The Athletic
- Reviewed: Constitution Party (United States, 1952)
5x expanded by The C of E (talk). Self-nominated at 15:40, 21 March 2020 (UTC).
Recent expansion (21 March) and long enough (1702 characters). I don't have an Athletic subscription, so I will AGF the hook reference. The hook fact is interesting and appropriately cited inline. Spotchecks reveal no evidence of copyvio. Good to go. Harrias talk 11:13, 27 March 2020 (UTC)
Hi, I came by to promote this, but I don't understand the hook interest here. Do you mean to say that they didn't move in for decades, until the floodlights were installed? Or that other teams used the training ground even though it had no floodlights? Yoninah (talk) 15:20, 27 April 2020 (UTC)
- It's a hook relating to the Manchester derby. The interest is that Man Utd opened the ground that was formerly their rival's training ground. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 17:38, 27 April 2020 (UTC)
