"The pitch will be marked in the afternoon as well as the posts going up and, even if snow falls again, the pitch is expected to be playable."
And playing a friendly in the snow will help a pitch that has been under the covers/snow for ten days? |  |

Can you imagine the state of the pitch if it's played on tomorrow night? I am led to believe that they still have not got up to date with their rent also.....Hilly will look at the pitch and be rightly peed off........ |  |

What I can't understand is what has changed since 25% of the pitch was frozen last week? Temperatures haven't got high enough for it to thaw and there has been a fresh snowfall too.
This should have meant the Hornets game had no chance, were they not advised of this by the groundstaff earlier in the week?

When it comes to the egg chasers they do pretty much what they want, when they want. They get the benefit of our covers and churn up a cold wet pitch, it amazes me why anyone would be surprised by this.... | |

Well I know what ive read and heard over the years. And with gates of around 300, it does'nt take a genius to work out that something has got to give somewhere. (Generally the rent.) Hairnets should have been booted out of Spotland years ago. They've given there shares to the RFL or whoever, for a loan they have blown, and have zero chance of paying back, and they expect RAFC to pick up the tab, when they are potless, and from what I can gather, they have no shame about it either.
The above is pretty much the dictionary definition of a parasite.
On a side note, I know for a fact that Mayfield/Rochdale town would'nt welcome them. | | | |

But the groundsman is well within his rights to say "it won't be fit". Was a decision made by the Stadium Company to allow use of the floodlights last week and again tonight? If so, why? | |

Think you know nowt like the rest of the Hornets haters on here. They have as much right to play at Spotland as Dale do,but will be lucky to play ten or so games in 2013 and if the Saints friendly survives the weather,probably won`t play another home game for weeks. As I asked on here some months ago,do both clubs pay per game,or are they supposed to pay an equal amount no matter how many times they play? I`m sure you`ll agree the former is fairest,so with Hornets not having played a game since,I think,the Barrow game in August,how do you reckon they`re in arrears? | | | |

Are you dave Butterworth?

Hornets are tenants, Dale own part of the ground. There need be no comparison between what the two clubs pay. Presumably Hornets agree a fee with the Stadium Company and it has absolutely nothing to do with Dale.
Anyway, maybe the groundstaff are happy reading the link below. Presumably the pitch will not be affected and we have to trust their judgment, because any problems encountered would be a consequence of that decision.

Oh I know plenty my egg chasing chum, hornets rent is per match played spread in equal payments throughout they year. Both during the season and beyond it. Hornets couldn't even pay their way through their normal season and were at one point saved once again by the RFL making an eleventh hour payment, a rather large amount it was also. Now we go into the close season and instead of making payments they use the old well we ain't playing at the moment so we shouldn't have to pay.......Oh yes you do have to pay as your payments are structured throughout the year.......You don't even have a set of posts ffs, they have been loaned to you while you try to use every trick in the book to get the SC to fund you a new set. This is after you played games with unsafe posts last season, condemned by the councils own safety team.....I have much much more info if you ever want to hear it, although as a Hornets fan your head will be buried o far up your own arse you wouldn't believe any of it anyway. | |

Apparently the Hornets are aiming to play on Sunday if they can't tomorrow. That's Sunday when heavy rain is due... |  | | |

Can see no reason why the groundsman can't be interviewed to give us an update on the pitch and how it won't be affected by a Hornets friendly.
How can a game be rearranged, by anyone, without first getting permission from the Stadium Company? | |

I enjoy my rugby league and am pleased the town can boast Hornets. It's good to hear something else in the national news other than paedos and unemployment when Rochdale gets a mention.
Hornets live hand to mouth as the football club does. Hornets have suffered under previous regimes as the football club has. Their situation is markedly worse than our own at present but we're not quite affluent at RAFC.
I bet if we were on the breadline the FA wouldn't bail us out like the RFL bails Hornets. How would Dale and the Council bridge the gap if Hornets left or went bust? (Open question...I've no idea)
We both enjoy our local teams in a town where apathy is the overriding feeling towards local sport. Whilst rugby and football on the same pitch is far from ideal the two clubs and their fans should not be at odds.
There but for the grace of Allah we could go the same way as Hornets.
