I think people have very short or selective memories !
The kicking & fussing that Widnes's mr Stobart exhibited when they missed out on the SL licence last time around speaks volumes here, Widnes are the new RFL darlings don't ya know.

Touché!
Warrington would be far superior to playing at Widnes, I'd say. I do sympthasise with the sentiment of what is effectively a Yorkshire league having a Lancashire-based Grand Final, but there's not a lot can be done until a modern stadium with c15,000 capacity is built in West Yorkshire.

You never been to Headingley? The final between Widnes V Cas had a belting atmosphere!

I specified West Yorkshire - I'd say Donny is a bit out of the way, not to mention the risk of them appearing in a Championship One final (albeit I don't think they're having one this year).
Quote: bentleyman "You never been to Headingley? The final between Widnes V Cas had a belting atmosphere!'"
Yes, I've been there - we were in Super League more recently than you, don't forget
Wasn't there 18,000+ at the Widnes-Cas game? A little different to having 7,000 rattling around the place, I reckon. Wouldn't exactly call it modern either, despite it's ridiculously high rating in the licence application....though we know what that's worth!

| Prefer Blackpool as a day out and atmosphere, not a fan of 4 sets of fans sharing enclosed stands.
The RFL do what they want though.

| Headingley would definitely be my choice, but to be honest I'm fairly happy it's moved back to Widnes (not a big fan of the Halliwell Jones)...

Blackpool, a final should be a day out or even a weekend.
Day out in Leeds?
Day out in Widnes?
Day out in Warrington?
Day out in Leeds?
Day out in Doncaster?
Blackpool it has to be

| Well the RFL will not choose a 20,000 capacity stadium for the Championship finals. They just daren't risk us selling it out.
