Has the ground been sold yet? and the question has to be whats wrong with the place?

Ramshackle springs to mind, but personally I think it has a lot of charm.

The last time I went there the toilets overflowed.

I was charmed beyond belief.

See!!! A free shower every time you use the latrines, what more can you want!

See we are trying to become a traditional northetn club, sounds just like cas or wakey. Ah maybe we are trying to recreate the old salford experience.
dont have a go guys and girls its all meant with a smile and a joke.

Underhill itself isnt too bad,
The key issues are to do with access and the councils refusal to allow improvements. We used to lease the cricket pitch behind the south stand from the council and we had a right of access behind the East Terrace to enable vehicles access to the southern end of the ground.

Problem started when the council asked for a large sum of money to allow us to continue using the access road and to renew the lease on the cricket pitch.

Without this access it no longer complies with football league requirements so the writing was on the wall.

The other factor for moving is the cost of maintaining an old ground was a burden. Particularly as the main stand was built as a time when asbestos was regularly used as a building material and so extra care has to be taken.

Yes it is, it's a complete dump. Ridiculous slope and battered old stands.

Well everyone is convinced we are on a constant downhill slope so should suit us

Practice for playing at Batley on a regular basis

Slope is about 2 metres from one end to the other, can't see it making much odds for Rugby. This may give you a better idea. tbh despite what Tre says I would still happily swap playing at the Hive for Underhill and I have been to plenty worse grounds than ours. www.youtube.com/watch?v=7gEMFxd0fWk It will also give you an idea of what kind of chairman TK is.

The original underhill had quite a slope in a number of directions before some substantial realignment by Barnet. Indeed there are worse grounds than the current layout some still in the FL but on the basis of photos and website (it's all I've seen) the Hive gives Barnet far more opportunity to prosper in the medium term.

I'm thankful for the info he has provided as I dont even know where Barnet is!

But you do so thats OK. Sod the rest of us

His tone's condascending. Nobody likes a smart *rse.

And your tone is abrasive, but hey we all have our problems. I claim no knowledge of Rugby league or Broncos but being a Barnet fan means I am entitled to know a bit about my own team and where they play.

To be honest with you, when you posted your insults about my teams home ground I found it very hard to remain polite. It's true I look at Underhill with rose coloured glasses, it means a lot to me, I have no attachment to the Hive and this is true of most fans I know with a fair number still refusing to go to the new ground.

I'm sorry if you don't like my tone. Considering how little information you are getting from Broncos I thought some might appreciate passing on whatever I can. It's clear you know the area and according to twitter recently visited the Hive, so anything I say is nothing new to you. If you find my tone so offensive then why not use the foe option to block me rather than let it get to you.
