They added the field turf, video scoreboard, replaced visitor and home side stands and renovated the press box and maybe added to the home side in the last 10 years. Oh and renamed it Woody Hayes Quaker Stadium...replaced the Quaker Oats guy on the outside of the visitors press box with the flying NP

By renaming it Woody Hayes Quaker Stadium. They went out and solicited some of the $$$ from distinguished OSO alumni that played for Woody!! Their Booster Club did raise alot, too though.

fundraising, fundraising fundraising.. when the score board is paid for we are building another large restroom on the east side of the stadium to the left of the fieldhouse.. also what dover fan can talk about locker rooms.. your visiting locker room isnt anything special either.. i guess we could paint it pink like iowa does.. that could make it better..

I am a Dover fan that gave nothing but praise to that stadium. Ive never mentioned visitors lockerooms. I defended that stadium when Big Red fans said it wasnt worthy of them playing there. But alot of the fundraising WAS former Buckeyes associated with Woody Hayes.

No one said it wasn't worth playing there. We wanted to know where the Dover fans would fit.

Why would we want to go see you play them? We'd have a game of our own. If it were a Thurs or Sat, then I might go.

Don't lie. You can't stay away when the Big Red is right in your back yard.

I skip Big Red games if they're playing some cupcake and there's a good game close by. Especially if it's someone in our region and I want to see em before the playoffs.

Ive heard a home/home for 2 years. BTW, Quaker Stadium is, at the least, equeal to Harding Stadium as far as quality.
But remember, it's pretty tidy around Quaker Stadium so there is no ready supply of the requisite broken concrete block available for throwing at your opponents fans or band members.

I'd be fine with NP, but 4th best stadium? Josh? It's not bad when you are on the home side, but you might want to hold that thought until we sit on the V side. Sam, if NP is so bad, my boss tells me that they actually were pretty good when they played Indian Creek. Not sure how many times or what the results were, but he was impressed.

I'd give it a top 20, with the band shell a firm #1, but I am not sure it cracks the top ten. Maybe from looks, but not sure about total. Sounds like a good off season thread.

new philly's stadium is a good facility..... for a division 4 school!!! please.... comparing that thing to harding stadium... you must be on some serious stuff!!!!! harding is only behind paul brown and faucett as the best in ohio... period!!!! i don't give a damn if you named it after a former buckeye coach or not... in fact, what the hell does that have to do with anything?? maybe you should have put a few more seats in before making comparisons with harding stadium.... yes, bigredintoronto is back in full force!!!!

Harding stadium would improve alot if they put faculty and administration on the home side where they belong. Only stadium I've ever been to that does this. Why is it done in the first place? They take up the best seats on the visitors side. Wrong,wrong,wrong.

NP's stadium is a top notch facility, you people crack me up. IMO this game won't happen, NP AD doesn't have the grapefruits to schedule Steubenville.
