The training dome has been 'let down' due to the snowfall. It's daft that we've not got an indoor facility that can be used in all weathers really.

Some, staff in the main, stayed in Sheffield last night. 
 

From the playing staff Josh Windass was ferrying team mates around in his 7 seater 4/4 (Teale would have struggled in his 2 seat Bentley). Also DM with medical staff picked up one or two and they’re setting off earlier than planned on the bus

All from the PC

It would have been the weight of the snow resting on top that would have been the concern. 

Padded inflatable domes, like ours, are better insulated and more cost effective to run than if we built a solid indoor facility.

Yeah I know why they let it down. I have no idea about how cost effective they are though, so I’ll bow to you knowledge pal.

There's anything between 25-40% cost saving. They act like igloos and the internal coating rebounds the heat back in.
