Millmoor can't be that derelict if Rotherham RU are looking to move there next year?!

Looks it from the outside and what we can see of the inside. Either way it's not in Sheffield.

Fair point, well made!

What about Abbeydale, or the Tigers ground? They host much more competitive fixtures there but don't seem to have been in the running? Abbeydale has a stand, a good clubhouse, a bar?

It also has cricket.

Tigers must have some limitation, because we're not using it for reserves/academy any more.

Anyway so car parkings pretty bad at Spinkhill?

They are going to open up a field for extra parking apparantly. Hope it doesn't rain.

Coach and horses,3k capcity,Seating for 500 behind the goal,Standing area in proper sheltered area down the side and optional standing behind the goal and one side uncovered,The only downside half a mile outside of Sheffield Near train station and bus routes,Plenty of parking,Wonder why it wasnt considered an option?too expensive to rent?A ten times better option than spinkhill but musnt grumble!!!!
