Yes it is, but I think it was taken at the Batley game. The lines looked ok yesterday. Everything else posted about the ground yesterday is spot on though. All the problems with the small pitch, red gunge, big holes in the track etc etc are down to the stock car track. But Without stock cars we would still be in Dewsbury. Unless there is some secret master plan it looks like we’re stuck with Odsal as it is. For a while anyway.
When buying tickets for Leeds I actually spoke to a member of staff at the club, who told me nigel was far from happy with this, but a covid case on the morning meant somebody was doing it for the first time with no ‘guide’. And those corners don’t help. Explains a tad, still a massive embarassment

I know I am in the minority but I’d sooner we played out of Dewsbury than what I experienced at my last Odsal visit. The whole place is depressing and it’s certainly not my idea of a family friendly venue. Hopefully might make it to the Dewsbury game, it’s a cracking little ground where I don’t have to worry about my kids breaking their necks.
Well that's the dilemma. Play in your home town at an absolutely substandard dive, or play in someone else's town at a fit for purpose stadium. I can see why people see it from both sides. Odsal is currently an utter disgrace unbefitting even a lowly club such as us. But there's buggerall we can do about it!
Someone pointed out very well that when Flanagan went off we were dominated around the ruck. I said this at the time and I think, for his flaws, that is where hallas would have plug the gap.
We need someone else to take on all those tackles hallas covered which is some ask
