On 28 July 2017, Tampines Rovers had their first match at their newly-opened stadium against Brunei DPMM FC and won 2–0, signifying the return of The Stags to their spiritual home after six years. That match saw a crowd of 4,676 fans. Since then average attendance per match is approximately 2000 fans which is the highest in the league. In 2019, in view of the shared stadium initiative by Football Association Singapore, Geylang International will share Our Tampines Hub as their home ground. It caused a lot of unrest within the local football community, stating that without its spiritual home, the clubs are losing its identity.
