Saltergate's still standing, but I assume the safety certificate is long gone!

If we went there we could pretend is was 1967 and have contested scrums and 5m defensive lines.

You sometimes wonder if Saltergate have ever had a safety certificate

Latest news from the Dewsbury site ....


"Dewsbury Rams would like to let supporters know that the details regarding their away fixture against Sheffield Eagles, scheduled to be played on Sunday 5th June, are still unknown to the club.

"We were infomed some time ago by the RFL that the match must be played on the scheduled date, and that we would be informed in due course of the venue.

"However, due to the incompetence of Sheffield Eagles in being able to secure a venue to play the match in the six months since the fixtures were released, we are unfortunately still in the dark on the matter with less than two weeks to go until the scheduled date.

"It is unfortunate that we are in this situation with such a short time to go until the match, but perhaps we should have been expecting such a thing since this fixture seems to encounter problems every season."


Bit harsh !

Not really, You have had all season to sort it out and this year the fixtures are totally FUBAR due to this, Not your fault regarding the ground needing to be relayed or whatever but the club has had plenty of time to arrange the fixtures and get a venue in place.

The shay could be used i beleive as we are playing on Thursday, just i idea, but saying that neither club have enough traveling fans so would cost Sheffield a pretty penny.

Good job the toilets had no roof because they absolutely stank anyway. It would have been the 7th level of hell in there with a roof on.

It almost sounds like I'm nostalgic for it. No I'm not. The new stadium is fantastic (for the size of club, not compared to the Sheffield grounds) and was needed for ages. For me, it's a good example of why we have to have ground criteria in rugby league.
