Which "Home" do you fancy BT?

Very true. Ealing would suit best.

Will this game be played at Wimbledon?

It's a week before we were due to be back there but the pitch works will be finished by then as Wimbledon have a friendly at Cherry Red on 22 July. So possibly could be played on 23 July.

be amazed if its at Plough Lane.... Ebbsfleet is my guess

I think we can narrow it down to either a ground in London or a ground somewhere not in London but in the South of England. What more can we ask for?

It's rosslyn park

Saturday 22nd July, 5pm kick-off

Strange timing.

Rosslyn Park junior likely have a game beforehand or summat like that

You’re joking??

It's what I have seen published 1700 ko at the Rock

Doubt they will be playing this time of the year.

What is the point of Plough Lane? 10 games in a row away from our "Home".

80 minutes from Wembley and we are playing at RP. How is that a fit ground for a pre-Wembley semi-final?

May as well have played it at Fax and share the gate 50:50

It’s crazy isn’t it. Also train strike on that Saturday. May have to get tube(s) to Wimbledon and then UBer it. 2 hour journey minimum.

On previous strike days there has normally still been a limited service between Waterloo and Windosr & Eton calling at Barnes.

As far as I am aware CC gate receipts are still split 50/50 wherever its played. Dunno if its still the case.

Hopefully Batley will have the class to turn down their share of the £150 if they win.

Well I would think they would as its against halifax

Fair point. Batley will no doubt send us some biscuits.

Farcical......potentially biggest game since we were last in SL and we're at a 10th tier union shack.....
I genuinely believe that the club...ie Hughes and Lobster...no longer gove a flying fark about anything ither than not losing the argument. Problem is, they lost it when they moved to wimbledon and they just refuse to axcept it was wrong.....

Is the area around Rosslyn Park o.k. for a night out especially real ale wise? Any local tips on places to stay that's half reasonable, remember i'm from Yorkshire please. icon_lol.gif

Am no expert mate, but in reality you are looking at heading down putney bridge area to drink but would probably say Richmond your best bet, for accom it's a lottery mate booking.com or any other search engines as good as anything

Or get the bus outside the ground to Clapham Junction.

Twickenham is also a good shout for pubs and is only about two more stops on the train.Probably cheaper rooms as well.

Wait till you see the price of pints!!icon_smile.gif

Leafy suburbia.....Nearest Hotel is a German owned one offering single occupancy for £90 a night, double for just over a ton...there's a "spoons" next door, so reasonably priced beers but the selection dependant on what's near its sell-by date.

As speechless says, you could jump on the bus to Clapham where you'll get more reasonable prices for ale and shelter, although if I'm honest, the German dosshouse and spoons seems like a pretty simple idea and a room for a hundred is cheap by London Standards.
