Would love that! However the pitch at Ajax is dire. So we are back to the soccer issue. |

who's to say no football club would allow there stadium to be used in the summer? alot of clubs re-turf their pitches during the summer if we could make arrangements with the host club to have the weekend before they do it we could be in business

Lovin chuff, NO FOOTBALL CLUB WILL ENTERTAIN IT!
Even when they are relaying, they want all the time possible to set it ready for start of the season.
City is THE biggest non starter of the lot.
In a nutshell
RFL: Can we use your ground for Magic Weekend
Multi Billionaire Owners: We don't need the money but lets speak to the groundsman see what he thinks
Groundsman: No chance it'll ruin the pitch and take ages to recover.
Multi Billionaire Owners: Hi, is that the RFL, no you're alright we don't need your money.

that being the case we are stuck with
wembley - lets not ruin the uniqueness of going there for the challenge cup final
olympic stadium - the running track will mean fans will be too far from the pitch killing the atmosphere, also south london is a crap hole
murrayfield - too far to travel
cardiff - prob the best of a far from ideal bunch

I like the Olympic Stadium idea, but it's just the track that would ruin it I think. The view wouldn't be too good. Are there any other London stadiums available? When are West Ham due to leave Upton Park? That holds what, like 35,000?

Saying that, it would be like a home game, 3k-4k Quins fans would be an added bonus to the crowds, it's a hell of a lot easier for Catalans fans and the transport links could be better for London but they are still very good compared to the rest of the UK.
There is space around the stadium for activities and not many pubs close to the stadium (keeps fans around the stadium).
It could also help grow Quins crowds.

Pretty close: you missed out one detail though
RFL: By the way, we don't want to pay money to hold the event: we want the football club, the city council and the regional tourist board to pay us to bring the event to your stadium.
