Barnet To Return To Underhill?

Barnet FC are hopeful of a return to Underhill. For the last ten years they have played at the Hive which is in Harrow.

Underhill has been demolished but Barnet have plans for a new 8,000 seater stadium.

Chairman Tony Kleanthous has issued a statement.

'During the long months of Covid, I busied myself with trying to find a way to bring the club back home and met with Barnet Council to ask for their support in locating a suitable site on which I could build a new stadium.

'I undertook to fund the full cost of construction so that we could progress without any funding delays.

'After months of searching, it became clear that the best site was the one we originally identified at South Underhill and so we asked our architect to revisit these proposals. This new scheme is a redesigned slimmed down version of our original planning application at the South Underhill site'.
