We have had a great 5 years

2011 4th 12-8 Lost Grand Final
2012 4th 12-1-5 Won Grand Final
2013 2nd 22-4 Won Grand Final
2014 5th 16-10 "owlerton Factor" Poor Year
2015 3rd 17-6 Super 8's won 2 matches

However this year being a full time side i expected us to improve but no chance we are in the relegation zone !!! hopefully we will survive but i would not put any money on it we still have 13 games to play (including the minus 8's or whatever it is called !!) so theres lot to play for but with our poor defence we are definitely in the relegation fight

Is it just me that thinks our downfall is very similar to leeds this year luckily for them they have the crowds and money so can regroup quite easily however for us this will be the last year that the likes of QLT Yere Worincy and our full time players will need to regroup next year hopefully still in the Championship but with 2 big questions no 1 does Mark Aston fancy rebuilding a new eagles side hopefully but would be a good opportunity for him to move and will we have a new stadium !!!

Grey Beard,
I don't think the investor (previous investor) was a shareholder.The board seemed content to allow him to contribute over the years.

Yes, he was a shareholder. The Articles were changed. Always an option, of course. Nothing's for ever, is it ?

I think death and taxes are forever lol. I do not recall it being announced anywhere that the Articles were changed but have to admit that keeping up with the Eagles has been somewhat difficult for me those past 3 years or so.

They just have to "announce" it at Companies House. No need to do so anywhere else. And, to be fair, few folk are interested anyway.

Quote: Angelic Cynic "Fev Grinder,
Thanks for expressing the wish that you would like us to do well.

You may not have seen the area set aside for the development because you have not had the opportunity to get inside the club office at the UTC.You can visit there to purchase a replica shirt as worn by the team at the Summer Bash.

There is also some very snazzy white plastic exterior around the site which shows both basketball and rugby league players and the club crest.

It looks like March 2017 is when it will be up and running.Possibly with hired seating being necessay, to this time run along the side of the pitch.

It may mean playing the first few games away from home.

It is probably best to follow the Olympic Legacy Park Twitter account.Club communication is a little distant from perfect;but they may be relying on the former Labour MP.


Hi AC,

Thanks for your prompt reply, I have seen the "very snazzy white plastic exterior" around the site and looked into the site from various angles while walking, driving and riding the tram, which was the prompt for me to state that "I don't see any evidence of of the stadium being built".

I had been impressed with the initial proposal of a 10k stadium, which was later reduced to 5k with the ability to extend in the future. However I see now from the link you posted above and having done various searches the Olympic Legacy Park are now talking about Community Pitch to be used by Sheffield Eagles as well as other organisations.

If this does become a similar site to what you have at SHU Sports Park with temporary stands, etc. so as to get you in for the 2017 season, I hope it is only for a short period since it would be good to have the Eagles at their own venue back in the city with their very own stadium. I just hope that Sheffield Eagles can develop this over time and that this does not become a missed opportunity.

As for the replica shirt, I already have too many Fev ones so will give it a miss icon_smile.gif

Good luck for the rest of the season (24th June apart for obvious reasons icon_smile.gif )

No reserves,but resilience,persistence and determination are omnipotent.:

Mmmm.Pity about the replica shirt.Our merchandise sales must be at an all time low,this year.Slight problem.

The realisation about the lack of succession planning has come with impeccable timing.

Losing both a chairman and an investor,just as the club is to move to their permanent new home,is a bit unusual.

I have no idea who the club is involved in dialogue with about investment and the stadium,but being an admirer of the female gender,due to their time-management,good housekeeping,forward-planning etc.I hope it includes the people who have been employed on the site.
rlThis Lotrl

A chance for investment and construction and a lot of intelligent,qualified ladies to take on the chairperson role while Mark Aston does everything else.It doesn't have to be a full-time role or be at the club 24/7.

rlwww.henrybootconstruction.co.uk/news/may/7627-2/rl

I also hope it doesn't become a missed opportunity.Still,no news is good news.

Quite looking forward to next Friday.Hoping confidence has returned and we won't need any luck. icon_razz.gifRAY: eusa_think.gif
