It’s a bit hard to take the mickey out of other clubs not being able to host matches because everyone else has got their act together.

Can’t you borrow featherstones ground like Newcastle did whilst you get yourselves organised?

…aaand another game’s had to be switched. Shambles absolute shambles and they think they’re a grade A club.

Don’t DIY your kitchen you’re better off getting a proper plumber in. Buy cheap buy twice.

Nothing to do with the new owner, the building work was signed off by the previous owner. The builders are rectifying their mistakes on the water supply just as they had to rectify the generator problem with the floodlights.
New houses have builders mistakes, new cars are often faulty, the new build faulty list is endless.
The new owner Mat Ellis, is committed to correcting any building faults, and improving the rest of the stadium.
You seem a little bitter with your remarks, but as you don’t have the facts I’ll let you off. It’s not a shambles, no games have been postponed, the clubs affected by the change of venue have been very supportive, and perhaps welcome the early season extra revenue, it’s not all doom and gloom.

I get wankfield love to blame everyone else for their own failings but it really doesn’t matter who’s at fault. It’s a shambles and should have been sorted out before the season started. So far you’ve had one game called off half way through because your floodlights don’t work, one game on with a generator and players having to leave without a shower and now two games switched. That should see IMG remove the points for ground ownership because unless you can host games at it it’s not a functioning stadium.

Embarrassing to the league, along with Wakefield fans brawling at York (I suspect their stewards aren’t as keen as you think to have you back) and I’m just glad you’re not a superleague club. Sky would be furious. If this isn’t sorted soon they can’t promote Wankfield as they can’t meet their tv commitments.

Trinity will be hosting all their home games this season. Do you think the same about clubs who share their ground with FA clubs? The rugby club has to play consecutive weeks away games at the behest of the FA clubs. Do IMG deduct points for this?
Perhaps Bradford should have points deducted for the undersized playing area, and a decaying stadium by their own admission.

Like York and Doncaster who’ve been good enough to dig you out the hole you’re in by agreeing to switch? That’s nice. Having read the announcement on York’s Facebook page the first comment is from a season ticket holder who’ll now miss out on a home match. Fixture lists are announced in advance for a reason. Good job the championship isn’t televised.

Decaying stadium but it is fit to host games at.

Here’s an idea given you’re now awash with cash. Rent another stadium until you get your act together or better still sort your ground out. At the very least the Doncaster and York season ticket holders who have lost out on a match having made other plans since the fixtures came out should be compensated.

My first visit to your site. Thankfully most Bulls fans are not as bitter as you are towards another club.
Give over with tbe exaggeration and give a little more accurate view of the situation or stop slagging another club off with your childish schoolboy crap. In other words grow up.

I’m not sure what’s an exaggeration. The two games you’ve managed to put on, one was called off at half time and the other the toilets wouldn’t flush and all the players had to go home without a shower. Since then two clubs, who the person I was replying to things should be docked points for sharing with a football club, have had to switch fixtures costing fans games on their season ticket.

They’re just facts I’m afraid.
