Quote: UllFC "Be interested to see what crowd they get for this, from memory i'm sure they had more blocks sold out before the Kiwi test last year, and it'd be disappointing to get a lower crowd as Australia are traditionally a bigger draw.
Of course England haven't exactly inspired so far, and the Olympic Stadium itself has had horrendous bad press in recent months.'"
The atmosphere there for the Kiwi game last season was awful, possibly the worst that i've witnessed for any RL match.
Can't say for sure that it was purely because of the ground but, the facilities weren't to good: toilets, food, beer and tube afterwards all far worse than Wembley and not a patch on the smaller "northern" grounds.
I remember going to Loftus Road for a game against the Kiwis, about 10 years ago and that was a decent ground (not sure of the capacity though).
