Can everyone just hold fire and not get their knickers in so much of a twist!!

Im sure as soon as something is decided Carl and John will let everyone know of the plans via the website.

I cant see how we would be moving out of the keepmoat for someone else to move in, it wouldn't make sense.

Club posted the 2 friendly games Hull and Hunslet are at the Keepmoat in January

Karlos is right we need to stay calm.

If Sheffield are going to use the Keepmoat, discussions with all parties will take to time to sort. Any time delay can't be interpretted as bad news.

The end result will hopefully mean the Keepmoat gets more income, the Dons keep their 3pm kick off times, and Sheffield get a ground to play in that is acceptable to the RFL - bringing benefits to everyone, and hassle to no one.

The nomads will only want one season as they will be moving into the new stadium in Sheffield in 2016 so doubt the club will jeopardise the Dons support for a short term gain.

Corrrect me if I'm wrong but don't teams playing in the Championship next season have to play at a stadium with a minimum of 1500 seats hence the reason the Eagles aren't playing at Owlerton next season
I dont think Castle Park as got 1500 seats so how can the Dons play there home fixtures there?

Depends on how you interpret it. You're going to need a stadium "available" with 1500 seats when you play Bradford because I expect they'll bring a few. Maybe you won't need so many when you play some of the other teams so you could play at Castle Park so long as the Keepmoat is "available".

The RFL aren't into putting clubs into financial jeopardy through pointless expense.

It wouldn't be "available" if Sheffield were there on the same day.

Looking at all this from another angle , how does all this tie in with Sheffield's action against us with the RFL?

Its rather ironic that all this is going on and Club Donny are the ones helping them out.

If Sheffield get an extra £25k off us for finishing higher in the league, when we get three points docked, they can give us the £25k back as rent.

Have a listen to Carl Hall on the Official site re Castle Park.

We aren't moving there all next season but didn't rule out 1 or 2 matches.

I can see it being during the relaying period that we always have..

Or the same weekend ?



You could always play Monday nights........

Its alright, you're playing at 6:30 on a Monday morning.

So why dont the Eagles continue to play at Owlerton until there new ground is built?

Too many clubs whinging about it. To be fair, Dons weren't one of them, before anyone infers it.

And it'll be totally inadequate for the likes of Bradford Bulls.

That'll suit me fine. I'm an early riser.

Owlerton no longer meets the criteria www.sheffieldeagles.com/News/Article/36819

I like the "no longer" bit.

Word on the streets is that double-headers are the most likely. I don't know who this will benefit, if anyone.

If that were true, both. One rent, two games.

If all this malarkey was to be true ...3pm Sunday is the only Dons game time I will be attending.
So don't feck about Donny.

wish someone would kick griff from all the forums as he does nothing but wind ppl up, or he could go back to camblewick green
then again the double header should be with the dons at 3:00 and the eagles at 7:30no reason for the dons to move slots for squatters

We don't pay any rent. Our owners own the lease of the ground so it would be a bit pointless

Why ? Lots of owners take rent from their companies.

Bless me !!

Whatever happened to "banter" ?
