[edit] Stadium
The club plays at Love Lane Stadium, their home since 1948. Previously the club played at Princes Road on the land subsequently owned by Hampshire Cattle Breeders, and latterly the site of Kings Road and Dukes Close.[1].
The stadium has a capacity of 3,000, of which 250 is seated (this was the limit set for a match with Aldershot in 1993), with one all-seating stand down one side of the field of play. It also has floodlights. The stadium is situated opposite renowned fee-paying school Churcher's College.
In August 2007 the town council expressed concern at the dilapidated state of the ground, describing it as "a magnet for teenage vandals".[2]
