Feel for Truro Fans, how crap would that be if we had our home games in Stoke
Truro City to share Torquay United's Plainmoor ground - a round trip of 200 miles -

I can remember many years ago Caernarfon Town having to play their home games at Curzon Ashton FC when Caernarfon were in the Northern Premier League with us.
That was all to do with the FA of Wales and some weird ruling that was around at the time. Can't remember the detail now.

Didn't a club use Macclesfield's ground a few years back ?
Also when Maidstone United were in the Football League they had no home ground and travelled around 70 miles for home games.

No big deal. I travelled 6,270 KM to a home game.
