Hope this is a none starter! We have a chance here to establish ourselves as the region's premier rugby club. If we are playing infront of 12,000 crowds with 8k s/t holders the issue of the service charge will be less relevant. Instead of trying to get more games in the ground, lets fill the ones we already have! 15/16 full houses is worth more than 30 games with 5k average attendances

On an aside does 12k actual meet RU Premiership criteria? Dont the RU insist on lead tenure?

Its all well and good pointing out successful groundsharing examples but these are all based on relationships with football clubs. In the case of a 'rugby' club, a senior partner always emerges e.g. Quins RU and Leeds Rhinos. I for one dont want to run the risk of being swallowed up by Sale and have our aspirations smoothered at birth.

KOTS point on MUFC and the link to a fan base and corporate market is very important and should be explored further

Will you be at the game tonight??

Please feel free to come and say hi to me as I'd love to meet you, would be most eager to see if you were as brave in person as you we're the last time I posted something you didn't agree with. I'm not a betting man but I'd wager good money your not.

Now now daz have a beer and chill.

Didn't think it would come to anything, keyboard heros tend to keep shtum when the chips are down. Nice to see you though, where was the back brace and the lecky wheel chair

McRae was using it



I'm bloody paying for it today though My back and shoulders are bloody killing me. Thats the longest I've been stood up for continuously since the crash. And you have no idea how hard it is to celebrate without being able to jump about lol.

No wonder your Mrs looked so unhappy if your not able to stay upright for long

.

Didn't know you'd be involved in an accident, hope you get better mate, know how it feels as I did my back at the begining of October and it still hurts from time to time, though that nice fat compo cheque helped soften the blow
