let them ask bramley buff's if they can use their ground at stanningley.rupert and tarquin would find it quite interesting as would their gels Lucinda and Annabelle

What about the cricket pitch

Nobody else using it in the winter!

Nay lad I meant the ones near the iron bridge near the Shaftsbury, cant have yawnion played that close to home

[iThe[/i Ironbridge is near ourselves though. You're on about the crap version. They should play at West Leeds. Atleast the stand would look full!

What the difference there both bridges ffs





[size=50If anything the one near the Shaftsbury is better because its bigger!

I would have thought Morley RFC would be an ideal location for them. Might have to put up some temp stands mind. Although if you are putting temp stand sup could they not use South Leeds?

The Ironbridge is in SWC. It makes it superior.

It does depend on which division they are in, as if they go down, playing at Otley, Morley, South Leeds, even West Park are all possibles.



I think if they do stay up and assuming that if we are at Elland Road and Mr Bates is not going to want three sides playing on the pitch (I wouldn't), South Leeds with temporary stand seating would be a good bet. It has modern facilities and with a temporary stand along the other touch line to bring the capacity up to something like reasonable it would be a good temporary home for them an possibly our academy games?

What is the capacity at South Leeds at the mo?

Mr Bates would have a team playing at ER everyday if he had more money to stash in his back pocket surely?

Wherever they choose to play would I think need approval from Premier Rugby Ltd, who weren't going to allow Rotherham to use Millmoor a few years ago IIRC because it didn't have the required number of seats - unless the rules have changed that would rule out the likes of Morley, Otley and West Park.



South Leeds would seem a sensible solution - not sure how many temporary seats would need to be put in to meet PRL standards though.

My recollection of Rotherham and Millmoor not having enough seats is the same as yours, and I would suspect you would be correct about them having to have permission from Premier Rugby. However, at Millmoor you did not have room to put up a temporary seating stand, which would be all-seater because of safety regulations on this type of stand, but at some of these grounds you do and as such I could not see them turning down permission for the few months it would be required.



Now, I was assitant structural engineer and design resident engineer on South Leeds Stadium, many, many years ago and I think (don't believe I can't actually remember!) the capacity is 2500?
