but by car or coach....

I imagine Latics will have something to do with there not being a game at DW.

Roll on 2013 World Cup

In fairness, the difference in capacity is a whole 324 if memory serves me right (12,700 at Leyth, 13,024 at Wire).

Latics are at home same day as game at Leigh, day after game at Warrington.

Rumour has it Gary Hetherington owns the chippy just outside the ground.

Well you will obviously have to expect that to take some time longer.

Man city owners don't want other sports played there during wendyball season.

Problem with most grounds is other sports, wendyball being played all over the place, yawnion at headingley. Leigh isn't ideal, but under the circumstances there is probably only odsal (hole), craven park (already game in hull) and widnes (smelly) that are other options, make the best of it and cram the lsv with England fans wanting us to win rather than sore yorkies booing out best player.

Least the ground will be full. It is a sad indictment on the game however that our internationals are played at grounds with a 13k capacity.

Exactly, that was the whole point of the post you replied to.

What was the crowd for the last England v Wales fixture?

Like I said, Leigh isn't ideal, personally I think the DW is a far better option, but that has been put pay to by Wigan Pathetic by the sounds of it. The International game will grow with full stadia on TV adding interest and entising sponsors. At least the LSV provides this. I'd expect 4k people from Leigh (mixed support) and minimum 4k from Wigan, plus other supporters. Should easily sell out.

11,000 at Doncaster 2008 I think.

I'm pretty happy with the venues and will probably go to all the games bar the one at Wrexham(as it will be a flogging).

I just hope they now come up with some decent offers for the Wembley double header. They should make tickets as cheap as possible and get a good family offer going on.

Knowing the RFL tickets will range from £20-70 for those games and we'll get around 20-25k on though.

There are some really good offers being mooted. Bury Broncos are looking at putting together a cracking deal.

So if everyone gets off their arrises we could beat that figure............sounds good to me.

I have no doubt that this time the game at Leyth will be a sell-out. By the way I think this game is a massive compliment to both the town and Leigh RLFC.

Here`s hoping so, for what should be a good game and comp.

I'm pretty pleased with the 4N's schedule. A double header at wembley shows that the RFL actually have some ambition relating to the international game, now all they need to do is promote the hell out of the game and get a great attendance. Anything 50k plus should be applauded.

The Aus New Zealand game should sell out at wire and I for one will be making the short trip over to warrington to watch what should be an absolute classic! Furthermore, the Leigh game should be close to selling out. Personally I think the RFL have got the right balance here.

Obviously the Aus game would be at wigan if not at Wembley but I actually applaud the RFL for really wanting to develop international RL.

just booked hotel £87 for 3 nights for 2

I agree the aim should be 50k plus at Wembley and they should be looking at just selling the bottom 2 tiers at first to make sure they're full at that will make sure the atmosphere is good.

As for the other games the first weekends must both be sell outs. I'm looking forward to both of those. I think they maybe should have let Wales have home advantage against England in Wrexham but then without that standing end open i'm not sure of the capacity. The game in Hull against the Kiwi's is a good choice aswell. They've not had a game for a little while and it's a super stadium.

The one fixture we need to look at is the final because Elland Road is a dump. It's hard to know where to go though that would be big enough if England did reach the final.

Why are you moaning about it being at Wembley?

if you support England RL, you will get your backsides down there and get behind the team. It's WEMBLEY for God's sake - that is where you play your international fixtures, and it's an honour and privilege to be able to use that stadium.

If you don't go, you should be ashamed of yourself.

The obvious conclusion would be that you get the train.
