The opening statement will also include the announcement of a new Facebook page that asks members of the Facebook community to join the support structure for a new team. The thrust of his statement will be to create a real and tangible base of support for our new team before they arrive.
Diradour will also comment on the ongoing process as regards team choice and The Eastern League’s dedication to the Richmond Metropolitan market. Discussion regarding the Opening Day Partners proposal will also take place.

While I like the idea of a refurbished Diamond, I think a riverfront ballpark in Manchester, as recently discussed in the media, is the best location for the City. I do understand that financing for the development of such a stadium is challenging to say the least. Riverfront ballparks across the country have proven to be a successful; would love to see that happen in Richmond!
Here-here Manchester !!! Bravo ! The Rivercity needs a Riverfront ballpark !
“The Manchester Opportunity” offers an arrow-tip to spearhead a REAL and ongoing, long term revitalization of ALL of the Greater Richmond region.
This can only help create a much better outcome for lovers of baseball, and, more importantly, for lovers of Greater Richmond !!!
