| The design of Barnet Copthall has it being used as an athletics stadium in summer. The temporary stands on four sides of the ground covering the athleticstrack during winter to create a compact rugby ground are removed in summer for athletics.
At Hemel we have taken a close interest in what Saracens are doing, in many areas, and their stadium development has features we are seeking to include in the development of our ground at Pennine Way.

I totally agree! but 23,000 is a large stadium even Wigan Warriors struggle at times to look good in their 25,000 seater stadium. 2012 is going to be good to see how the plastic turf goes at Halton as I fully agree a stadium should be used all year round, play all junior club games on it, have local school finals etc. St Helens at Knowsley Road were letting the local St Helens Town AFC use the ground but they do not want them using Langtree Park hiding behind it would cost 5,000 per game to run the stadium due to health & safety, it will be sad is a great new stadium like that is used so little in a year!
Some people may think we may not all see London Broncos play at their own stadium or co-owned but age either way is no guarantee what lies ahead for any of us! fingers crossed though! LOL'"
As DH said at the fans forum, Premier League sides and even Championship sides aren't interested in sharing, so we have to find the right partner, and 23k is lofty even by Brentford's aims. Saying that there has been the move towards building a stadium for a known market, ie one that can and will be filled, with room for increased numbers of new fans and for further expansion down the line. Basically the smaller the better with us, but we must retain the ability to expand to a decent size, and call me an optimist, but is it inconceivable that London could be playing towards 20k crowds in 20 years time.
team to at least see if the numbers add up.'"
Not too sure about that
Would see the end of 20st props, but they'd probably just add more numbers to the bench rather than move away from the benefits they might recieve from playing in the summer. Can't see it happening tbh, although they do watch what we do and copy the best that we do, suprised that it has taken 15 years for it to even come to discussion level.

From the outside looking in they seem to have been well and truly done over by the council there, I don't understand why they're so keen to replace Barnet with Saracans.

Barnet will not exist in any real sense of the word come 2013. The council has not really been in the real world snce 2000. ![DEPRESSED icon_biggrin.gifEPRESSED:](images/smilies//a054.gif)
