Quote: Michael_Ward "Do the clubs still win if the gate is half what it was?
Just as the NRC final has established itself as a decent event in its own right, with a weekend away to boot, it's going to be devalued by playing it somewhere usual. I don't want to spend a weekend in Halifax, and I spend most weekends in Leigh already.
A shame imo.'"
But will a NRC Final between say Leigh and Halifax attract half the gate, if it's played at LSV or The Shay? Wherever it's played this year, the gate was going to be hit, as there's a full Championship fixture list that weekend.
