They still don't seem very happy over on the Dewsbury forum. No pleasing some folk, is there ?

On the way home today I was listening to an interview on Radio Leeds with the Dewsbury coach. He said that they did n,t know when or where they were playing the Eagles but would probably find out on Tuesday!
Now does this mean that the RL have not completed their inspection of Spinkhill or are Dewsbury appealing against the venue.
He also said that he could not believe that 2 professional teams may end up playing on a school playing field. I agree with him on that!

i cetrainly agree,But on the other hand some of the grounds ive visited are not much more than that,ie London Skolars,Swinton,The championship isnt a franchise league so as much as its not ideal,Its a ground.If it was every week then somthing would have to be done,Hopfully it is a one-off as i dont think wed get away with it if continullay doing it.

The RFL say that the ground is grand.

If it wasn't, the game wouldn't be played there.

Is that a direct quote?

Sorry to carry on, know the game has been sorted & we should deal with it but one ground that I don't think has been mentioned is Bracken Moor...

I've never been so can't say what it's like but looking at pictures, looks a lot better than Spinkhill.

Still in Sheffield & a lot closely for Rams fans to get go..

First ground I ever went to!!

I think that the stand is too small.
Many fans would suffer node bleeds because of the altitude
Good clubhouse but very small although there is a pub 50 yards up the road.

Not been for ages but used to be a fantastic playing surface.

Spinkhill is a cold ground, Bracken Moor is absolutely FREEZING. It's not that much better than Mount St. Mary's to be honest, I've only been there to watch Wednesday reserves a few times though.

I think Bracken Moor is a cricket pitch now the expensive game has finished for the summer.

Is n't there a football ground at Stocksbridge. Was that ever considered?

Go to wikipedia and enter "Bracken Moor" as discussed above and it tells you where it is.

Quality.

Not a native of Sheffield just an Eagles season ticket holder. Merely trying to spare the Eagles blushes at playing a professional game on a schoolplaying field!

Don't be fooled by the propaganda, Concerned. It's a very well developed school field.
