    Hi, I have been a county fan for over 65 years (I'm 80 now) the change in the last few years is wonderful thanks to Mr Stott and his team. Hope I'm still around to see the dream come true

    That looks a nice little ground seems like Stockport are moving in the right direction hopefully you will be back in the championship in a few seasons everyone is banging on about Wrexham being a Hollywood story but I think yours deserves praise from coming from the national north to league one in such a sort space of time.

    As an Australian tourist who has attended many British football games, I went to a Stockport game in NL North in 2018. I took a photo with a player and one member of staff. I have enjoyed their rise since then. It will be nice if I can get back in the coming years and see the new stand.

    Posh supporter here, with a soft spot for County since our Wembley play-off win in 1992. Well done for coming back from the National League North (where Peterborough Sports now play) and for your Stadium aspirations. Enjoy the League One season ahead.

    More than the stadium itself County is a lovely, friendly club, and they also play good football. I’ve seen the planned redevelopment and wish everyone connected with the club every success.

    As a Brighton fan I love to see clubs come back from the brink and become a better club than they were. I used to go to the goldstone as kid and withdean during my late teens and 20s both them stadiums capacities combined is over 10000 seats short of the Amex (goldstone 12000 when it closed, withdean 8500 and the Amex 31800!!) and now it still feels like I support a different team as we now are going into our season and here is our league Positions 15th,17th,15th,16th,9th,6th,11th. During this time we have played in 2 FA cup semi finals and we got into the europa league finished top of the group of death which was as follows Ajax Marseille and AEK Athens. We drew Roma in the 2nd round and lost 4-0 away but we beat them 1-0 at Amex. So dream big as I never thought we would get into the premier league and stay for at least 8 8 years and 2 semi finals and a place in Europe. I like the capacity of the ground as it’s ambitious but not too big as no disrespect but you are competing in a area with at least 8 teams around you within 30 miles but if you get into the championship you will regularly sell 15000 attendances and would fill it comfortably in the premier league. There is nothing worse than seeing a stadium in the premier league half filled if you had a 35000 all seater stadium but if you were to make it to the premier league and you stay there for say 3 seasons and there is a long wait for season tickets the corners can be filled which would easily add 5000 to the capacity which would see the capacity rise to a respectable 23500. But for the time being 18500 would be amazing and will set you up is perfect for the championship and even if you did make it to the premier league this stadium would be bigger than both Brentford (17500 and Bournemouth 12250) good luck and see you in the premier league soon 😊😊

    My club Ipswich Town committed to rebuilding two of our stands when we were last in the Prem. Then the ITV deal fell through and almost finished the club off. We've had twenty odd years in the doldrums and have only just managed to get back up again, partly through the sale of the club and massive investment. This time, even though there's a recognition that more capacity is needed, the emphasis is on player recruitment, development, coaching and improvements to the training ground. Wish you luck with your ambition but don't put the horse before the cart.

    Ohh and after 3 games they are now top of League One! Well, let's just say that if they get promoted this season to the Championship, they will become a team who could potentially build on a long term plan to reach the Premier League... maybe within a decade or so that is. They need to grow their fanbase larger first of all.
    Unfortunately, there is an exceptionally strong glass ceiling almost preventing them from achieving Premier League status in just a few seasons and keep climbing like they have done the past few seasons. Even if they win League One by a large margin this season, they'd still very likely be in a relegation battle in their first Championship season.

    Nice video. Exciting times. Cautiously optimistic this doesn’t all blow up! The fan base has grown significantly in recent years with great work being done in the community and schools to attract the next generation and offer an alternative to the increasing santitisation of the Premier League match day experience near by.

      It's because Stockport was made a county borough of Cheshire around 1900, so the club changed it's name to Stockport County to reflect this. Areas north of the Mersey were taken from Lancashire around that time but the whole town and Borough were in Cheshire until 1974 when GM was formed.
