And have all 3 shrieking eagles chanters even louder in my lughole? No thanks. At least the Fisher-Price drum didn't make it in tonight though.

Ah - it was your choice then. Rather than a lack of seats. "We'll sell you a seat .... but you'll only need the edge of it!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said the same when we went earlier in the year. All the fanfare when Sheff were back in their new 'stadium'. Its a stand with 3 blocks and new tea hut / toilet block. I dont know if and when there is any plan to bring it up to anything to resemble a stadium. I hope there is as it wouldnt take much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stand is pretty tiny, about 10 rows over 3 blocks. Seems more like an office block with a few seats tacked on. Hopefully they can get some proper terracing on the far side, that would be a massive improvement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's planning approved for the full (3900 capacity) stadium development but no one to fund it since McCabe fell out with SUFC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ground is first and foremost a community sports facility not the home of the Eagles, who have a 5 year agreement to play there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil W Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Thought we battled well tonight in a much improved performance. We didn't get the win but can't fault the commitment or effort from the players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a Batley fan we have to win tomorrow or else I think we will finish 6th, with regard to the remaining fixtures. At the end of the day that would still be a great achievement but a little disappointing nevertheless, though it isn't really. How do you feel about your season?
