The Railway End, at the east end of the stadium, is a former uncovered terrace that at one time could hold up to 6,000. In 2001, it was the last part of Edgeley Park to be converted to seating, thus making the ground all-seated, and it is now generally used to house away supporters. Still open to the elements, and with a capacity of around 1,366, the Railway End is currently the smallest of all stands in the ground. The stadium scoreboard is located at the rear of the Railway End. He started to get itchy feet,” explains Phil Brennan, who wrote Bergara’s 2013 biography The Man From Uruguay. Daniel Alberto “Danny” Bergara de Medina was a Uruguayan footballer and manager who also managed Grantham Town. A consultation is in place to increase the capacity of the stadium to 20,000 from the 10,841 that it currently holds. However, all development will be dependent on how the club performs in the league. Phase One will replace the East Stand (or Railway End) from the current 1,366 seats (without a roof) to approximately 4,500 seats (with roof). This will make it similar to the existing West Stand (or Cheadle End) albeit with a slightly lower capacity. Plans are for construction to start in 2023. Phase Two will be to rebuild the South Stand (otherwise the Pop Side, Family Stand or Barlow Stand), increasing the stand's capacity from 2,411 to 6,500 seats. Phase Three relates to the Main Stand (the Danny Bergara Stand) and would expand the existing stand to the full length of the pitch. This would mean an increase in capacity from just over 2,000 to around 3,500 seats.

Bergara also managed the Brunei national team and the England Under-18 and Under-20 sides, with a World Youth Cup win also to his name.In carriera ha totalizzato complessivamente 91 presenze [1] e 36 reti [1] nella prima divisione spagnola. For the 1998–99 season, he was named manager of Grantham Town, who had just won promotion to the Southern League Premier Division. A string of poor results saw Bergara become the club's Director of Football and the club's Chief Scout, Tony Kenworthy, becoming manager. Later he scouted for Sunderland. Dopo una stagione come vice di David Pleat in prima divisione allo Sheffield Wednesday, Bergara nella stagione 1996-1997 allena il Rotherham Utd, in terza divisione; dopo una sola stagione lascia però il club e passa al Doncaster, altro club della medesima categoria, che però lo esonera pochi mesi dopo averlo assunto. All'inizio della stagione 1998-1999 si accasa infine al Grantham Town, club neopromosso nella Premier Division della Southern Football League (sesta divisione); dopo pochi mesi lascia però l'incarico, rimanendo comunque al club con un ruolo dirigenziale fino al termine della stagione. In seguito lavora anche come osservatore per il Sunderland, senza comunque ricoprire altri incarichi come allenatore. Danny Bergara was a lorry loader. Or at least that’s what his work permit said when the Home Office stamped its approval for his first job in Britain.

Having arrived in Division Three for the 1991/92 season, Danny’s team proved to be inspirational, starting as they meant to continue, with an opening day five-goal thrashing of Swansea City. The club finished the campaign in fifth place and gained a place in the end of season ‘play-offs’. For the 1998-99 season, he was manager of Grantham Town, who had just won promotion to the Southern League Premier Division. He was brought by the club’s controversial chairman Reg Brearley. While playing in Spain Bergara married an English travel guide, Jan, and when he retired from playing football they moved to England. A brief spell at Doncaster Rovers followed, during which time the club were featured in the 1998 Channel 5 ‘fly-on-the-wall’ documentary “They Think It’s All Rovers”.In July 2020; due to the COVID −19 pandemic in the UK, sporting venues had their capacities cut. Edgeley Park capacity was reduced to 2,700. However no fans were allowed into the stadium for the start of the 2020–21 season. This did not stop the stadium being redeveloped with new seating put into the Railway End, and new external cladding added to the Cheadle End. In his first full season Danny led his team to their first ever ‘play-off’ experience, which ultimately ended in disappointment, but placed in true context of the club’s achievements over the previous twenty years, it was to prove to be the beginning of a massive turnaround masterminded by the Uruguayan. The original Cheadle End, built in 1923, was a small covered terrace of largely timber construction, with room for around 3,000 people. It was made all-seater in 1967, and its capacity was cut to 1,100. This stand was demolished in 1985, after the Bradford City stadium fire, and replaced by seven steps of shallow uncovered terracing which held only a small number of supporters. However, for the 10 years that it existed, this terrace was extremely popular with County fans because of its traditional feel. Netting was controversially placed in front of the terrace during the late 1980s; after the disaster at Hillsborough Stadium in 1989 the netting was removed. The plaudits didn’t lead to greater things, though. After two years working for England, Bergara found himself out of a job when Sheffield United were relegated to the fourth tier. The club management job he craved took a further five years to materialise, and Brennan believes Bergara’s nationality played a part. Here, when you’re a kid, you play 11-a-side for cups and championships. When you join a club as a professional, you play five-a-sides. It should be completely the other way around.”
