Chronicler of Chiswick Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 That's awkward - not sure if I can make it. I can also see a snag with the floodlights as looking at the reflectors they seem to be directed at the running track (understandably, given that it's mostly an athletics stadium) and not at the pitch in the middle.

Bearman Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 I was seriously considering to the game on Saturday. Sadly, the train connections it make it too late. Ron Banks Midlands Hurricanes and Barrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the lighting is adequate for the Our League camera lot. Not easy finding accommodation for a one night stay in Colwyn Bay. They do care about League One,don't they? But supporters... Oh,neither,you say... No reserves,but resilience,persistence and determination are omnipotent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they play Rugby Union using the same lighting. I dont foresee any problems 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fearnowt Posted September 13, 2021 Author Share Posted September 13, 2021 One consolation for anyone who can't go is that it's on Our League, (I wonder if that has something to do with the timing). As Gogledd has already posted elsewhere, Eirias Park is hosting the Welsh open Taekwondo on Sunday, so that might also have had an effect. I think the timing will affect the size of the crowd, especially with Wrexham playing at home, and it will be a very long journey home for the Keighley fans. It is what it is, and I'm sure it's the best (probably only) option for the club. As for the floodlights, the stadium is an international standard rugby stadium, and hosts the Wales under 20s six nations games, which are televised live on Friday nights in February/March. So I'm sure they will be good enough. 5 Zip-a-dee-doo-dah, zip-a-dee-ay; My, oh, my, what a wonderful day, Plenty of sunshine headin' our way; At Stadiwm Zip World, Colwyn Bay!

Whippet13 Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 Cannot make 630 unfortunately ☹ but will buy the OurLeague streaming for Saturday and hopefully get to next weekend's eliminator game. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kiggy Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 That is two matches now on the Saturday as Newcastle v Toulouse is on earlier. I feel a sofa Saturday is in order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to be organised from above.It may also be that home advantage for the higher finisher has been altered. No issue with NWC - I think the vociferous,good natured,sporting and helpful supporters should be replicated with every club. 2 No reserves,but resilience,persistence and determination are omnipotent.

FearNothing Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 This is a problem with playoffs and not knowing until last minute if you're in, out, home or away, especially if the stadium isn't exclusively your own...... I would hope the higher powers had b*gger-all to do with it.. cru....Cru.....CRUSADERS!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have home advantage and the only time slot available to us was 6:30pm on Saturday....so thats why were playing at 6:30pm on Saturday..... I appreciate your comments about our supporters...they're the best, and our players and coach will tell you that too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just the one championship match. There are 3 matches on Sunday, WSL and a wheelchair game I think and a league 1 eliminator 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
