Barnet to Move to New Stadium

Harrow Council has given its approval for English League team Barnet to move to a new stadium in Edgware for 2013/14.

The Bees are leaving Underhill, medicine their home of 106 years, buy order at the end of next season and will relocate seven miles away at a new purpose-built stadium at The Hive.

Chairman Tony Kleanthous told the club website: “We appreciate the tremendous support shown to us by Harrow Council throughout this whole process.

“Now that we know our immediate future is secure in the area we will continue to do our utmost to respect the views of local residents and be the good neighbours everyone knows us to be at Underhill.

“We will also begin consultation with our fantastic supporters to ensure that we fully encapsulate their views in any stadium development.”
