The fact it's local (well closer anyway - local for me) may mean some people will leave after their team's match, but then there may be more people there in the first place, so those effects may cancel out. I guess the only way to find out is to try it, which is exactly what they're doing. No surprise that plenty in our RL "community" are having a good old moan about it



The only issue I can see is that even though it's in the best stadium in the world (as far as I'm concerned) there isn't the range of pubs around like there is in Cardiff. There's Mary D's (for the brave), the new Summerbee outside bar, and the bars in the stadium, and that's pretty much it. It's a fair old walk into town. Maybe that'll mean everyone's closer together and there'll be a better atmosphere though, we'll see.

Its a joke when you consider there is nothing to do around the ground and its a good trek outside of the city centre, with poor transport links. Cardiff was great as the City Centre is on the doorstep of the ground and you can really make a weekend of it, rather than it being just ANOther game. At least if they'd had it at Old Trafford there are transport links to and from the ground and a number of pubs/restaurnats where fans could gather and make an atmosphere and weekend of it. Why do we always have to play St Helens? It's not really fair as we are just penalised year after year, while Warrington get an easy game. This extra game last Year (it could be argued) cost us the title!!!!!Would it not be a better idea for the RFL to move the Challenge Cup Final to say Old Trafford or Etihad to save the trip to Wembley and make the Magic Weekend.....well Magic again?

You mean the extra game you got 1 point in whereas we were beaten by Huddersfield.........yes i see your point.

to be fair to him..... he did say it COULD be argued..... wouldn't be a very good argument though.

It could be argued that the 2 d*ck*ngs we gave them cost them the league?

facts mean little to the pies.
