Club Wembley is a joke and just makes the stadium look half empty - don't know who came up with the idea, but they should be shot...

Probably the person who needed money up front to help pay for it!!

Club Wembley financed the build with 10 year debentures, part of the deal was a guaranteed number of fixtures the CC final is in that guarantee - I do not know if the RFL benefited from the purchase but the attraction was the commercial benefits of England games and the soccer cup finals.

Over the 25 years prior to rebuild at the old old Wembley (standing) 14 finals had 8 gates above 90k and 6 above 80k with the highest at 99k, at the old Wembley (seated) most gates were close to capacity at 70-78k with only the one poor gate Wigan v Sheff at 61k which was effected by poor Sheff sales and the expectancy of a walk over

I hope that helps.

We didn’t go this time because of the Olympics not that we went to them, it was just that the lad who normally organises our trip found at the time of looking the hotels seemed to be bumping the prices up, so we all decided not to bother, even though the hotel prices have since come back down.

So we did the ale trail and watched the game in the birth place of rugby league instead, you’d think they’d have a big screen.

So the crowd has stayed pretty much the same over the years.

Given the available trips to follow your team in London, Catalans, Magic weekends etc thats very good. Well done the RFL

That's an interesting spin I hadn't seen coming
