| A Full-Time "Professional" Rugby Club begging for use of a university's facilities, its embarrassing for them.

| So it would seem the Eagles want to play all their home games on Fridays. Right to their advantage that one in a predominantly amateur league. How are they allowed to get away with that?
And does that shed they are playing in even have floodlights?

| Quote Bradshaw Bellringer="Bradshaw Bellringer"We objected to the change when Sheffield requested it on the basis that their ground 'may' be unavailable. We objected again when they said it was unavailable, offering to play any time on Saturday, or on Sunday Evening. That produced the statement that the ground was unavailable because of University Fixtures. We explored the possibility of reversing the fixture but (a) that would have added to the high number of 'double headers' at the MBI Shay in the winter/early spring which is undesirable, and (b) we would extend our absence from Home in summer to 7 weeks, with no certain benefit as Sheffield may still want to play on Friday in June.'"
Cheers for that. The situation is nothing short of embarrassing non the less.

| Tubs and the Sheffield board are trying to create an intimate and exclusive atmosphere at their ground this coming season, don't knock it till you try it.

| Its nothing to do with getting an advantage, it genuinely is to do with availability of the field. You'll find most Eagles fans are as annoyed as you are, especially the ones who have bought season tickets assuming it would be Sunday.

Indeed, I know a couple of elderly supporters who bought season tickets but won't be able to use them. It's far from ideal.

| Are the full time contracts just Monday - Friday on a standard 35-40 hour week? Is this the reason they can't play on a weekend or is it on religious grounds?

That's a very noble gesture. If you haven't met Bentleyman he is easily recognisable. He's the big bald lad who allus wears shorts. I'm sure that he will enjoy your offer of a pint!
