| I agree with mike that leigh has to sort something out for fans travelling from far away, me my old man and brother took an hour to get a quarter of a mile at the widnes game. The eng-france game
is going to be an eye opener with a bit of luck.

You will win because you have to win. Don’t forget that message from home. England expects every one of you to do his duty.”:1230.gif |

| Why do people always say double header asif it is some kind of magic word?
double headers are terrible ideas
they basically say only one of these games is worth watching, oh please come to see the other crappy game
every world cup game will be worth watching and should be sold as such
make the tickets affordable like they did in Aus too
all you suggesting lancashire venues, the aim is to get a good crowd and lancashire fans do not turn up, the results are always better in Yorkshire too!

| By 2013 there will be a new stadium in Cas, Wakefield, St Helens and Salford, so there's 4 venues, as well as the DW, Galpharm, LSV and KC. That's 8 stadiums, then Wembley or Old Trafford for the final.
Make tickets like £10/£5 and get it marketed heavily, give out flags etc in the stadium so it looks good on TV too.

| Until we actually know the format of the World Cup, there's no point in booking stadiums.
Are there going to be quarter finals? There weren't last year. Super group? What's happening, people?
Surely, with the RFL now confirming it will be 14 teams, we should know what the actual format of the cup is now. Unless they've just thought "f*ck it, we'll have this many teams and work out a system for it later..."
The Final most certainly at Wembley. The fact that it's Wembley that is so important. Some people seem to have the logic that if 60k people will go to Wembley, then the same 60k people would happily go to Emirates. It doesn't work like that.

Black Backgrounds/Zoot.gif Freedom for supporters of the government, only for members of one party - however numerous they may be - is no freedom at all. freedom is always and exclusively for one who thinks differently.

| England v Aus if on should be at Wembley Sat 3pm ko as the opener
Use the RL grounds fit for purpose for smaller group games eg Leigh, Wire, Widnes
Elland rd is a must, the Leeds public deserve that one, England semi?

NRL expansion? Sometime soon, maybe......:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_9857.jpg |

| I'd do an offer, buy an opening Wembley game ticket and get a game of your choice free. Buy a final ticket and get a semi ticket at 50% off.

| All super league grounds and a few carefully selected championship grounds should host some matches.
I think the final should be at Old Trafford, the majority of fans are in the north of England and that is where the game originated form, I dont see ant benefits to hosting the final in London. The most important thing is to have the whole tournament broadcast on the BBC. That will get plenty of people watching and coverage throughtout the media. Old Trafford will be a lot cheaper to rent than Wembely and significant better attendance if England dont reach the final. (It is vital the tournament makes a healthy profit remember 2000)

39110_1363272058.jpg Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

| I would play Frances group games all in france to get good crowds and increase the coverage in the country.
Play all Wales games in Wales, if they are in a group of 3 then 1 at Wrexham with the other in Cardiff.
Play Englands group games at DW and KC and get sell-outs at all costs.
Semi-finals at Elland road and Eastlands.
Final at Old trafford. If we could get 46,000 on for a game not including England then we could fill it if it did.
Other venues - Warrington, Leigh, Hull KR (if improvements are made), Widnes, Stoop.
Marketing needs to be better though, the NZ v Aus group game should be massive!
