Headingley may not be the best stadium in RL but at least it's a RL stadium.

And it's ours. It's happily sat in the "assets" part of our financial accounts. Wigan's has "Sam Tomkins move to Sarries", then "nil".

Good old Pies squatters in a footy ground and they're questioning our ground PMSL!!

By my reckoning Leeds have the 6th best RL Stadium in the SL.

SL Teams with a better stadium than Leeds[*Salford[/*
[*Catalan[/*
[*Warrington[/*
[*St Helens[/*
[*Widnes[/*[/list

SL Teams with a worse stadium than Leeds[*Bradford[/*
[*Wakefield[/*
[*Castleford[/*
[*Hull KR[/*[/list

SL Teams who don’t have a ground and have to use someone else’s[*Hull FC[/*
[*Wigan[/*
[*Huddersfield[/*
[*London[/*[/list

Do we still have the tallest posts in Rugby League?

Whilst new and much better stadiums are great for the sport i think its important to keep one or two 'oldies' in the league that has history. With Castleford and Wakefield hoping to move to new stadiums in the future (lets not have a debate about that particular subject) then the number of historical grounds will dwindle further. It would be great if the South Stand and Western Terrace could be brought up to the same quality of the Eastern Terrace/Carnegie Stand sometime in the new future. If/When they do i think it'll be right back up to one of the top stadiums as you'll have great Stands mixed with the history and atmosphere.

I dont think its the first time we have had this sort of thing from a SECTION of Wigan fans,does anyone remember Lee Crooks getting jeered and baited when he was being taken off after a serious injury?
Regarding Headingley being redeveloped,I thyink they are going to coninue to get wet through on the western terrace for many years yet.

Salford don't own their new ground.

Back to the original thread topic, looks like Tommy has a broken leg - clean - so should be back in action in 8 weeks. Good luck for his recovery.

get fit soon Tommy,not nice to see players out with bad injuries

Quite.

The point being that having your own stadium allows one to gain income from it, rather than fork out for it.

However so humble, there's no place like home etc.

Check out Wigans income from "Central Park".

Where do I find details of what you earned from it in 2011??

Any idea what Wigan's terms are for corporate and non-ticket/retail income at the DW? The non gameday stuff is good, but squeezing the gameday income is critical.
