Could one of the club historians please let me know what year the football club first installed floodlights?
My wife remembers the debate amongst local residents about the possible intrusion, so thinks it must be 1970s.
I think it was probably 1960s, but really have no idea..

Debut of the floodlights at Moss Lane:
Monday, 4th April 1966

Thank you. I will have to find a way of letting her know she is probably wrong about remembering it without making it sound like I am saying she is wrong. You know how these things go I'm sure.

Just tell her it was 1972 - knowledge is power 😉

I believe I have the programme from that game somewhere.

I definitely have a reproduction of that match programme from when the latest incarnation of our floodlights were installed.

What date were the new replacement barely adequate lights installed?

Oh, it's not just my failing eyesight. Phew.

I've often hoped someday we'd get lights in the corners of the ground rather than along the sides. I don't know why but those types just seem better to me.

What date were the new replacement barely adequate lights installed?
About 2010 i think
