Just another pont re this

When a "test match" is on and the RL field is a car park and there are several thousand around the cricket field , what is the difference in safety?

There isn't several thousand fans in the rugby side.

wow, you just made a reasonable point, go and lie down for a bit



capacity of headingley cricket ground is 17500
the rugby capacity has been reduced to 10,000
unless there are 7500 people expected at the county crciket game then the capacity of the headingley stadium complex has been reduced for no reason, if there are less cricket fans than that then there should be more rugby fans alowed in - Gawy has already explained that the complex is taken as one area for safety purposes

Tis all do to do with the crush that happens on the north stand rugby side with no entrance/exit from the top of the north stand (main stand as they like to call it) thus meaning fans had to wait 10mins to find their seat.

that cant be right as there are no restrictions on the number of North Stand Tickets that are being sold

This really is baffling, what's the capacity at Headingley? About 18000? Why didn't they just reduce it to 15000? Then if by some miracle, the cricket gets 3000 dotted about, theres no problems with a crush. Am I wrong here, seriously? The only thing to explain this is 'health and safety', and I can believe anything with that lot.

The Rugby ground holds 20,500.

Wonder if anyone will be smart and buy a cricket ticket and wonder over



TBF though they get a fair crowd on a saturday for a roses clash at the cricket. Definitely not what you'd expect.

It's drizzling in Leeds so we have an empty cricket stadium and a half empty Rugby League stadium. Cheers health and safety. Good work.

What's with the outrageous music just then when they were discussing the players of both sides. Sounded like some dodgy 90's game music.

Top effort from Smith that. Could see from the camera angle he was the one player awake to the chance of it hitting the post.

... and Sinfield hits the post again.
