The First Division club plans a £1m upgrade to their stadium at Drumahoe. The club aim to build a new stand, a clubhouse incorporating new changing rooms and facilities where supporters can take young families. The board is to embark on a three-year redevelopment plan due to start next year to encourage and increase attendance.

The club intends to upgrade and replace all temporary buildings within the stadium to bring the ground up to UEFA standard. There will be a refurbishment of the north stand from 200 seats to 800 seats, a new covered stand for 750 people and 300 seats at the south side will be increased to 600 seats. As part of their refurbishment plans, they hope to improve access to the grounds and provide additional car parking.
