Wests Tigers Home Ground Mega Thread

[hank37w]

We need a slightly smaller version of Parra Stadium at Campbeltown. a few token games at LO

Simple.

Why go smaller?

 

[Tom Shines]

And here come the conspiracy theories.

You mean like this one 😆?

Those are the sorts of fixtures Cambo has copped for ages though?

Over the years, the games have been split three ways mostly … Homebush, LO and Cambo..

The best games went to Homebush… with LO and Cambo getting the non Sydney opponents in the main… Cambo was not given a worse deal than LO in this regards

I doubt Campbelltown is going to pay them to play there … Richo is saying that it’s all about the bottom line

I wouldn’t be surprised if all the games are at Homebush or Parra next year…

Thats a shame.

How is that a conspiracy theory? A conspiracy theory would be if I made claims as to why the fixtures were set the way they were like Jedi Tiger did. Merely stating facts about the setting of the fixtures is not a conspiracy theory.

are you insinuating that Cambo have received an unfair deal with fixtures than LO or not ?

If so… what is the reason you are implying?

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Any new or redeveloped stadium we play out of will be shared with at least 2 or 3 other teams. Not to mention A-League. Not going to be something that’s just for us.

Did I say it was unfair? I was responding to Jedi claiming LO has been given rubbish time slots.

 

[BZN]

Campbelltown don’t even pay them now to play there from what I’ve heard. No money currently comes out from the south west for the club if true. That’s why I think it’s a good chance all our home games are at Accor next year.

Can you substantiate your "from what I've heard".
Because I've heard the opposite...Campbelltown pay the WT's handsomely to play there.

Thursday nights specifically … which is not really based on any realities … Not a lot of Thursday nights at either ground over the years

Like I said … one ground has not been favoured over the other … Homebush has been favoured as they paid money for games and got to pick the opponents they wanted to play there …

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Like I said … one ground has not been favoured over the other …

I never said any such thing.

 

[Tom Shines]

I never said any such thing.

lim just pointing out that both LO and Cambo got bad fixtures .. do you agree?

Sure

$30 is an ok price for a ticket

$30 gets me 4 WT's games on Kayo and I don't have to sit behind the goal posts.
But I do live 400klms approx. north of Sydney.

Talk about price gouging. Kayo are the worst.

 

[coivtny]

Pretty sure there were GA seats at either end behind the posts for $30 Adult

Those seats were definitely available but I didn't check the price. To be fair, mate, I hate sitting behind the dead ball line but I guess what you're saying is cheaper seats are available.

 

[matchball]

Why go smaller?

The NIMBYS will object everything. Going bigger at LO would stall out just like the leagues club did.
Getting money is one thing, getting anything approved is a whole new battle.

We need to move on.

Richo has already said that Campbelltown has generally got the shit games over the years.
Whether that was favoritism or not, who knows.

I know he said that … but it’s like the first time he has said something which I don’t agree with … as I have said earlier … both LO and Cambo got the bad fixtures and Homebush got the best fixtures over the years…

Yep, fair enough.
I just assumed Richo was talking about post Homebush games at Campbelltown.

Yeah I dunno what his intentions were… it’s a pretty short list of games since they left Homebush … last 2 years i think .. before that was Covid and then in 2019 they were still Homebush
