2020 Offer : Tue Sep 17, 2019 1:11 pm  

As a Bulls fan myself and Chairman of Shaw Cross I’d like to offer Bulls fans the chance to use our facilities on Matchdays.

We’re less than 5 minutes walk from the Dewsbury ground, we have a decent sized car park and very reasonable drinks prices.

I was thinking of charging £3 for parking and with your parking ticket you get a free drink when you order any other drink (hot drinks, soft drinks, draft beers).

Would this be something that would interest people?

Would have been if I'd not bought the Car park pass

Must be an Olympic Class Walker if you can do it in 5 mins

Sounds a great offer.
Google maps states an 11 min walk to the ground rather than 5??

I wouldn’t have said it was 11 minutes but I might be wrong.
I’m not the most active bloke in the world and I’d say it’s a very steady walk.

Ok so it might be 10 mins but that's knack all and you're helping support a local amateur club with a bull as chairman. Seems fair enough to me.

10 mins might be "knack all" to you and thats great but for someone who travels with an oap or has a problem with their knees it might be a touch too far.
I was just trying to establish which was more accurate, 5 or 11 mins

Fair enough. I'll just declare my competing interest of also having a problem with my knees. Shaw Cross club (presumably where we'd be parking) as opposed to the Rugby pitches is probably a steady and fairly level 6 or 7 minutes I'd say.

I'm a pensioner too and have fairly dodgy knees (too many marathons, half marathons and 10ks I think) but I walk to and from Odsal on matchdays from Tyersal so I doubt I'd get warmed up with just11minutes.....
