Weren't they used by a Chinese restaurant at some point?

I haven't a clue! I spent my season ticket years in the South Stand and De Banke, I enjoyed having some atmosphere ;)

Yes by Ladak. It lasted about 3 weeks. People of Artleknock preferred pie and chips. :joy:

I also think the people of Irthlingborough, or any R&D supporters would have refused to give their well earned cash to anything that put money in the scums pockets.

I'm sure I read they only had 4 orders during that time. Wouldn't even covered the delivery boys minimum wage!
