Darlington Football Club has assured supporters that construction of its multi-million pound new stadium will go ahead.
It follows claims that the stadium will violate the human rights of people living next door.
Lawyers representing opponents of the scheme will press for a judicial review if final planning permission is granted for the development.
But the football club said that it still expected the legal transfer of the Neasham Road site to go ahead on August 25.
Spokesman Luke Raine said: "As far as we are concerned nothing has changed and the stadium will be built."
The legal team representing the Neasham Road Action Group says Darlington Borough Council would be contravening European law on human rights by giving permission for the 25,000 seater stadium.
One of the main concerns is the impact the stadium will have on travellers, who live in a caravan park only 40 years from the proposed ground.
Darlington council has admitted it is reconsidering its position in relation to the stadium
