Prescot Cables Statement

Statement from the Board of Directors

Prescot Cables Football Club would like to provide supporters and the wider community with an important update regarding the future of the club’s current home.
Following ongoing assessment of the stadium facilities, it has become increasingly clear that the main stand is approaching the end of its usable life and requires significant investment.
The club is now faced with an important decision regarding the future of the stand. Any long-term solution is likely to require substantial investment, either to undertake a major refurbishment of the existing structure or, alternatively, to consider a complete rebuild. Given the scale of the challenge, the club is exploring all available options to ensure a sustainable future for Prescot Cables. As part of this process, we are in discussions with the local authority and the club’s landlord regarding the possibility of relocating the club to an alternative venue.Such a move could potentially be on a temporary or permanent basis, depending on the options available and the outcome of the discussions. While no final decision has been made, it is important that supporters are aware that a relocation could potentially take place as soon as next season.
We appreciate that news of a possible move may raise questions and concerns among our supporters. The club wants to reassure everyone that any decisions will be made with the long-term interests and sustainability of Prescot Cables Football Club firmly at heart.
There are a number of complex matters still to be discussed and agreed, and the club is currently working through these with the relevant parties. We therefore ask our supporters to please be patient while these negotiations take place.
Prescot Cables has a proud history and an important place within the local community. Our priority is to find a solution that allows the club to continue to grow, develop and provide a sustainable future for generations of supporters to come.
We will provide further updates to supporters as soon as we are in a position to do so.
