Anyone up for a little story time update on Basingstoke Town FC and the Camrose scandal?

Before I dive in - here is what the Camrose looks like now. It's been left abandoned and unsecured since the club were evicted and made homeless in July 2019, after 66 years at the site. Image Little recap: This ground was gifted to the people of Basingstoke by Lord Camrose in recognition of the suffering they endured during WWII

Camrose was a newspaper magnate + former ed of The Daily Telegraph. He cared about community + many local things have been named after him Image
