Those in charge at Harrow Council who gave the go ahead for Edgeware Developents to build on the site should hang their heads in shame.
The ground has been left vacated for over a year, in which time no buidling or any developments have taken place.

Rather then sit empty and left to rot, Edgware Town could have played the whole of 2008/09 season at their spritual home, instead they were forced to drop out of the league and take a sabatical.
On the subject of Edgware Town there is hope for the future that the club will be back playing football for the 2010/11 season, though it would appear the club would have to drop to the SSML Div 2, which is step 7 and would be the lowest level the club would have played at.
As it stands, it looks like the club would have to groundshare, though with whom is still not clear.

Edgware back from the dead after ground exile
Thursday 21st May 2009
Edgware Town will be playing football again in two years time after the club was forced to move from their White Lion ground.
Town plan to play the Spartan League Division Two when the 2010/11 season kicks off and the Times understands the Wares will groundshare but the club remain tight lipped about with who.
The Wares resigned from Ryman League Division One North as well as Middlesex and FA Cup competitions last season because of continuing financial problems which meant they were unable to confirm that they had a ground secured.
However, because the Wares were never dissolved they are able to continue to use the Edgware Town FC name and are still recognised by the Middlesex FA.
