The main thing everybody ( Mr. Cummins please note ) everybody has learnt from that match is that French clown should never referee an important game again.

err...um..i knew..i was only testing..

All plans show it as being full size.

I am sure the criteria for a RL stadium is that the pitch is full size; especially one with no constraining factors, i.e brown belt land.

I thought the original plans showed it being short?

edit: Sorry, just looked again and I think you are right.
