Old v New : Wed Apr 19, 2017 8:18 pm
A question I have always wanted to ask and now is probably the right time.Lots of clubs have been re housed into new grounds over the past decade or so.
I have been to many of these grounds old and new.
So the question goes out to supporters of clubs and people who have traveled away to these grounds to watch there teams play.
The club's that spring to mind for me are Halifax, Wigan, St Helens, Leigh, Warrington, Dewsbury, Salford, Huddersfield, Hull and Widnes to some degree.
Me personally I had some great days out watching Keighley in cup competitions at these old grounds.
The bar areas after games were great, players mixed with fans and there was some great banter amongst the fans.
I understand that clubs need to generate income from these big grounds and playing surfaces are much better but me personally I loved the old ground and they what rugby league was all about.
