Albion Rovers FC says caravans arrive at its Kimberly Park grounds in Newport, Gwent, last Wednesday and more than 20 vehicles are parked on the pitch.

The club is dealing with the disruption caused by the parked caravans and their impact on operations at the ground. The situation is presented as ongoing, with the club awaiting resolution after raising concerns about how access to the grounds occurred.
