You could add to that-
The oldest football club in Wales
The home of the third oldest professional football Club in the World.
The home of the winners of the Welsh Cup, more than any other club
The location of the first ever Wales home international Football match
The location of the only public house on a football stadium in UK
The location of the oldest public house at any sport stadium in the World (still to be confirmed)
The location of the first football stadium to use counting turnstiles (still to be confirmed)
The location of the first football stadium to have a
purpose-built permanent stand for spectators (1854 initially erected for race-meetings)- still to be confirmed... etc...etc..etc...etc.
the stadium is oozing with the precise history that the museum is supposedly intending to accumulate and display.
Seems a no-brainer, but as you say politics will play out
