We wont attract any big sponsors if we play the game along the M62, with the showpiece final somewhere along the M62.
The main issue with the Challenge Cup final is that it's no longer the end of season "showpiece" event that is always was.
The Grand Final is now set up as THE big event in the RL calendar and this, and the Challenge Cup finale being played mid season, the final has lost some of its appeal.
It's a real shame and as a neutral, I'd take Wembley over the Grand Final every time.'"
Big name blue chip sponsors are not looking at Pound shop, Daily Mirror reader types of demography. They see that there is no money there, this is why we attract the likes of Foxy Bingo and BetFred.
