I remeber playing against Hunslet when they played at the dog track. Seem to remember HKR's place being one also.

Didn't Hunslet originally play at Parkside?

Yes.

When they moved were't the called New Hunslet?

Was that a dog track? It would have been 1980 when we played there.

I can't really remember although I visited there. I think the next ground they played at after that was a dog track stadium.

Last time we played at Parkside Geoff Gunney was coach and my hair was a lot longer.

They then moved to a greyhound Stadium then Elland Rd before their current home

Quite correct frank, it had bars everywhere but you had to pay admission to get in!

Geoff Gunney was a GB International and played RL well into his forties.

Have never been to Hunslet so glad to finally get the chance to tick that particular groundhopping box!

Get yourself into 'Dewsbury Moor Social Club' Matt for a cheap beer. 5 mins from the ground.

Would not surprise me if Hunslet make this all ticket. They only have one stand which holds 2500, but it is a nice one !!!

Leigh should win, but stranger things have happened.!!

I remember when they played at the Greyhound Stadium and had those Americian football goal posts up with only one post instead of the two the post supporting the crossbar was postioned on the dead ball line and Geoff piggy Fletcher ran thro to score much to his delite
before putting the ball over what he thought was the tryline but was in fact the dead ball line
his face was a picture when the ref disallowed it

Was just going to post the same DS about the American Footy posts from the early New Hunslet days , now they were weird

Anyone any pics ?

me neither Matt, there and Workington, thought I would get the chance when we were "relegated" , our reprieve has denyed me the chance of Worky but now with the cup draw, I can also experience Hunslet.

Good draw.....think I'll be going to my 1st away game this season.
