Belle Vue was Donny's home from 1922 until 2006. The 84 years had seen the ground fall into a state of disrepair and so a move to the new £20m Keepmoat Stadium (as it was called at the time) was very welcome.
The move to the new stadium has seen a tremendous upturn in performances on the pitch - 5 of the last 10 years at Belle Vue were spent in non-League, yet the first 3 seasons at the Keepmoat brought Championship football to South Yorkshire.
In the stands, the club saw a 72% rise in average attendance from 5,021 to 8,651 thanks to improved performances and improved facilities at the new ground.
