I'm not sure anyone has actually confirmed or actually said in the first place we are playing at dvs next year? The article in Yorkshire posted mentioned the playoff semis which were going to be played there. This was as ridiculously the cricket club have preference to the rugby club at Clifton lane.

Moving to DV would mean TITANS rugby.  I don't know if anyone has noticed that the name 'Rotherham' is already missing from players shirts and some of the shirts the supporters can buy in the shop, in favour of Titans Rugby.  We are also referred to as Titans in the Advertiser and the matchday programme!  I support Rotherham Rugby but would prefer not to in Sheffield. :(  It would be sad if we lost our club to Sheffield.

The RFU would love that to happen.

Is the name Rotherham not on the shirt on the traditional badge?

Our directors are from Rotherham? I'm sure they wouldn't want to leave.

Would seriously consider just watching the away games if we moved to DVS.I remember when we played Newcastle there.Absolutely no atmosphere.We have it for training anyway.'The Lane'is our home and hopefully will be our 'Fortress' again next season.I would like to see the council get involved again and then in partnership with the Harriers look to develop  Herringthorpe Stadium.

Also Herringthorpe with the Harriers could be a proper 'Community'stadium unlike what New York appears to claim

Preciseley,thats what Ive been banging on about it would be perfect.The stadium sits in a natural bowl,tree fringed,get some terracing put in place.Match days drop the hammer throwing nets.The running track isnt as intrusive as the one at DVS,you are not too far from the touchline.Imagine over time the stadium is developed for dual purpose,a floodlit training pitch stood where the all weather pitches were plus two other pitches PERFICK,ROTHERHAM COMMUNITY STADIUM.
