I know a wall fell down when Cardiff played there in the cup in 1982. It fell onto a policewoman who sued the club, even though it was Cardiff fans who broke the wall.

My memory is hazy, but I think it was that, as well as all the money they had to spend to bring the ground up to Conference standards (and then being pipped by Slough) that forced them into selling the ground.
