74221_1438199174.png WANTED IN CONNECTION WITH THE SUSPICIOUS DEATH OF A RUGBY LEAGUE CLUB

It would appear to those of us not in the inner circle, that the club is being prepared for self sufficiency probably circa 2017. By moving us to a sports facility that won't charge the earth, the club are preparing for life as a semi-professional outfit and so long as the core of 250 or so regular support stay, then there the club will stay until someone else fancies a crack at making it work.
This, in my opinion anyway is better than what nearly happened in 2013, when the club would have been dead in the water.

Thought I'd have a stab at answering your questions
1 - a park with a rugby pitch marked on it
2 - there is no ambition
3 - in the case of Broncos it appears to be solely for the amusement of David Hughes

| Just had a thought, say we drew an SL club at home in the Cup next season - not necessarily one of the big ones, just one with a reasonable level of traveling support, do we forfeit home advantage or do we ask Skolars if we can use their ground for the day as they have a greater seating capacity?

Who's obsessed? It's just they've got more seated accommodation than Ealing!

| Look our biggest gate this season was 1400 against Bradford and that could (at a pinch) be accomodated at Ealing, where we will pay a lot less for the priviledge. Who knows maybe we can help out with more of the Mobile stands and building a second terrace at the other end.

Interesting to read Hendo's reasoning.

| I still live in the faint/unrealistic hope that there will be plans in the future for the ground to have some development to enable Ealing and Broncos to play top level rugby if the opportunity ever arises. Its all very well saying the ground is big enough for the now, but what happens down the line if the club are ever in a position to play in SL?? Ealing is not even close to being of the standard

Black Backgrounds/Zoot.gif Freedom for supporters of the government, only for members of one party - however numerous they may be - is no freedom at all. freedom is always and exclusively for one who thinks differently.

Club man spinning the club message.
The military stadium at Aldershot would be a prime location. Good ground, amazing training facilities with running tracks, gyms, combat centres, swimming pools weight rooms....(or event Aldershot FC ground and use military facilities)
Its good enough for the British Lions, Harlequins, Fiji (training wise)
The kids have played there for years.
Nice stand/ground thats very rarely used.
