empty stand : Sat Apr 02, 2011 10:25 am  

couldnt make the game last night due to pot on leg so had to watch it on sky, this might have been posted before why are both corners of the southstand empty, when the rest of the stand is overcrowded is it something to do with H&S

It's had teh capacity reduced for as you correctly guessed H+S and this is the last year of the SS and it will be ripped up and replaced at the end of the season.

Work on the Southstand will begin before the end of the season and we will play the rest of our home games at Elland Road. I think Cas is our last "home" game this season.

Isn't the Castleford game Round 24 with only Wakefield due to visit after that, not forgetting the possibility of a home play-off game or even two but those are far from a given on the evidence so far this season.

Still it will make life a little more interesting for the many record keepers out there.

Ok. Wakefield home game and any home play-off games will be played at Elland Road.

Is that signed sealed and delivered then?
Great stuff love watching RL at ER.

No, nothings been set in stone. It was just a "rumour" in the preseason that it would be after the Cas game. By the sounds of it though it may have been an educated rumour.
