Apologies for posting this so late but only recently have I joined this forum. Visited soon after closure, at this point security were non existant so we had the run of the place. Still quite a few interesting things around in different rooms around the admin part, I had been lead to believe there were police holding cells within the stadium for trouble makers but didnt find any, spent a long time reading through stacks of confidential police inteligence reports on hooligans that had been left in the CCTV room :mrgreen:

All gone now with housing built on the site, the replacement stadium is opesite.

Thanks for looking

Michael Theoklitos

Hiya, Would I be right in stating the video tape and letter were trying to get City to look into Michael Theoklitos? [ame]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Theoklitos[/ame]

Also, was that the players bath? Both club badges on the wall.... I hated that St Davids type badge... too much like Dirty Leeds.

Funny to see all those foam F.A. Cup's

Nice Pics, with some real interesting details. Would have loved to have read some of those FIU reports - you would have thought someone would get sacked for leaving that sort of "intelligence" around!!

Nice exploration! im new hear but having worked as a football scout i can tell you that tape is a scouts report on theokolitis, usually a scout will have videos of the player in action to use to compile a report and also to take back to the manager as ultimatly its the manager whom would of requested the scout report should of nabbed it would of been a nice momento. Theoklitos as it turned out signed for Norwich only to move back to australia again to play for Brisbane Roar.
