Hmm it was a smaller ground than Mllmoor however the stands were painted red so I doubt it was tattersfield...Couldn't of been Rotherham Rugby perhaps?

Sheffield FC at Dronfield?

They play in red and it is certainly smaller than Millmoor.

Lies on Sheffield to Chesterfield Line.

I've been to a game there so I'm sure it wasn't that ground it looked slightly bigger (more stands) than coach and horses ground, thanks for the suggestions though guys.

Wont be Rotherham RUFC. thats on clifton lane not near the train line.Racking my brain though now trying to think which it might be.

Denaby United?

many years ago now two car loads of us went see the Dons play Carlyise prob spelt the name wrong,forget the name of the ground but it was close by the West Coast main line.

This is getting boring ! They are fed up with the thread on the Eagles site also.

Gillford Park (Carlisle)

I remember driving up one wednesday afternoon for a 6.45 ko during the Dave Sampson era.

This is what you get when we are not making any signings or putting ANY blurb in the papers.
Nature abhors a vacuum.
The forum is existing on scraps.

Agree 100% S-O.

Bring on the signings.

Bring on the season more like!

I went to that one as well. It was the Wednesday after we played and beat Fulham away at Crystal Palace, i think we lost at Carlisle though.
It cost me a right packet in petrol that week.

Does anyone remember going all the way to Carlisles Gifford Park ground on a winter Sunday afternoon only to find out when we got there that the game had been called off due to a frozen pitch?

Can anyone name the player who scored a hat trick of tries for the Dons on the Gifford Park ground?

Brian McDermott

Yes, we got there and it was like concrete. There was no chance that it would have been played.
Did BM score a hat trick though, i thought it was just a brace of tries but i may be wrong?
