Roughyeds


Recommended Posts

I'd rather they didn't play at BP but I'd rather they did than jeopardise the future of RL in Oldham. A few years ago I'd have been right against it but seeing how far they've fallen is sad. If it's their the best option for them to progress, for the good of the town, it's a no-brainer for me.

Both ours and huddersfields pitch was built to withstand the strains both sports put on the surface so i see no issue really. The only difference it would really make to us is seeing the crappy greened out rugby lines when we play.

 

However i very much doubt rugby would afford the rent and therefore i recon having the same owner would be the only way it would ever happen

I really don't want the Roughyeds back, despite what's been said I don't think the pitch would be anything like it is with the extra games being played on it.

 

I do however sympathise with their cause, OMBC have never really done Latics any favours, but also they have never treated us as disgracefully as they have the Roughyeds.

I spoke to CH on Sunday after the game, and he assured me that there was no prospect of going back to BP as there are no revenue streams, we'd lose all our income from what we get at the Whitbank.

 

If we do end up there, I'd be surprised, but as the Whitebank isn't up to standard, I'm not sure where we'd end up.
