ABOUT THE GROUND
Prenton Park has been Rovers’ home since 1912 after the side was forced to vacate the site they had previously obtained from Tranmere Rugby Club.
The ground is shared with Liverpool’s women and reserve teams - with the reserves playing there since 2009 and the women’s team since 2018.
Merseyside’s third-largest ground underwent significant renovations in 1985 in accordance with the Safety of Sports Grounds Acts, reducing capacity from 18,000 to 8,000 while the stadium was adjusted.
Prenton Park now has a capacity of 16,587.
