Chuckle Brothers back Don Valley move

Last updated : 23 June 2008 By Millersmad Staff
The club announced the decision to play their home games at the stadium in Sheffield at the beginning of the month ending a 101-year stay at Millmoor and the children's TV duo toured the stadium with club chairman Tony Stewart and John Breckin on Monday.

The brothers, who were born just a few hundred yards from Millmoor, realise just how important the move is. "Moving out of Rotherham will be good for everyone; it will make us think about how much we want a football team in the town." Barry told HRMedia.

"It is sad to be leaving Millmoor where so much of the club's history has occurred but given the problems there, this is such a positive decision and we should all applaud Tony Stewart for being so brave," added Paul.

The Chucklevision pair, real names Paul and Barry Elliott, are honorary presidents of the club and have just finished their nationwide 'Indiana Chuckles and the Kingdom of the Mythical Sulk' tour.
