Take nowt away from Bradford who've been really good but cas look to have fallen off a cliff edge even from last season

And they were already dreadful.

Cas were dire,but we came unstuck a few years back there.
The mud and a pitch only 55 metres wide makes it easier to defend and is a great leveller.
I have seen wider schoolboys pitches and it should not be allowed.

Unless they can get significant investment into Odsal, they should move to Valley Parade.

it's a disgrace isn't it?

Valley Parade owners wanted £750k a season so that was a non-starter. We're stuck with the Odsal millstone unfortunately since finding someone with tens of millions needed has been impossible since the 1930s.

Valley Parade pitch is smaller than Odsal BTW. Odsal pitch has a dispensation to be the size it is. Length wise it's no different to many RL grounds.

Not sure how you get that.
Valley parade is reported as 64 metres wide

It's shorter than it was when we were last there apparently - and that needed a dispensation then.

No idea what the answer is for Bradford , given the financial pressures facing the game, ground sharing needs looking at more widely in the sport.

Share a ground with Halifax? Share the new Ken Davy ground, Share Headingley, I know this will bring Bradfordians out in hives , would probably do same for me.

On our game, 1,310 in attendance is abysmal and emphasises the game’s income challenge, see above share costs suggestions

Good lord ! Has the metric wheel not reached Bradford yet


City Of Culture and small playing surfaces.

Competition for leisure £'s combined with what was only ever going to be a no contest, procession of a game. The CC needs a serious overhaul. I'm not sure what that is, but I can't see this format being repeated next year.

Bradford and culture in the same sentence....
