Not sure when this pic was taken, but you can clearly see some seats missing, either taken when that stand was being built or when they were dismantling it. Does anyone know why Rotherham moved from this ground?

[cite]Posted By: ValleyGary[/cite]Rotherham moved from Millmoor as talks with the Owner, Ken Booth, broke down. Not sure why the owner and the club cant come to an agreement?
Apparently, The building of the new stand had to be put on hold as they discovered Japanese Knotweed(???) on the site.
This is from Wiki.
interesting, ground looks in good nick. shame..all the old classic grounds are slowly disappearing one way or another
Choice - the stand is unfinished. Rotherham moved from Millmoor in 2008 (to the Don Valley Stadium) over a financial dispute with Millmoor owner Ken Booth.
