    When I left the NE, I went to live in Chester (Cheshire, not le-Street) and had a season ticket at Sealand Road for many years. If you think we have it tough at Sunderland, read this about Chester from Wikipedia:

    Following repeated financial problems during the 2009–10 season, which also affected many of their fixtures, the club was served with a winding-up order by HM Revenue & Customs in January 2010. The club was put up for sale, suspended from the Conference for breaches of league rules, and later expelled from the league in February 2010. The club's league results for the season were expunged and the club, after attempting to join the Welsh Premier League, was formally wound up in March 2010. Shortly after, a successor club was formed who will play in the Northern Premier League Division One North for their first season and play their home games at the Deva Stadium.
