Fans have been furious at the suggestion of leaving their stadium, while manager Eddie Howe also agreed.

“It's an unbelievable stadium but I do feel sorry for the away fans," Gascoigne told SportsCasting. 

"They've travelled so far and they come and spend a lot of money and they're like right up in the corner.

"It would be a shame if they built a new stadium outside the city, that would be stupid. You can't move from the place it is. Keep it in the city centre.”
