Quote FireWire="FireWire"What do people reckon the crowd will be for Saturday's showpiece?
I'm gonna go for just under 60,000. Will certainly be the lowest at the new Wembley and probably the smallest Challenge Cup final crowd since the 1940s.
Sure there will be a massive Warrington contingent there, as well as a few thousand Catalan fans. Could the RFL have done more to attract neutral fans?'"
I'm on the road with work quite a lot and listen to Radio 5 live. Today I've traveled to Gloucester and back and during that time time heard the Challenge Cup Final mentioned once.
The point being is that the RFL fail miserably in promoting the game even when they have one of the showpiece events. Its almost as if the games being played in secret.
Whos presenting the trophy? Eddie Warings auntie? Facetious comment but you get my drift!
