Currently known as the Lamex Stadium because of sponsorship, Broadhall Way has been the home of Stevenage and the club\u2019s previous incarnations since it opened in 1961. It has a capacity of more than 7,000, with just under half of the supporters getting seats and the rest getting to stand safely in terraced areas.<\/p>\n
The ground hasn\u2019t always held so many people. In fact, in 1996 the club was denied promotion from out of the Conference and into the football league because it wasn\u2019t large enough and didn\u2019t have the necessary facilities for hosting Football League matches. Because of that the early 2000’s was spent bringing it up to scratch so that when they next gained promotion the club and its supporters would actually be able to celebrate it.<\/p>\n
