I'm at uni in Leicester
The proper uni... not the jumped up poly :p

I say old boy, "Well done"

Shut your face. My sports marketing degree will pee all over your gay science one.

Iam in Birmingham and it would be good to see a Super League game played in the Midlands, either Villa Park or Coventry to try and get some press coverage and try and get some union players and fans to come and watch a game.

i say both cup semis at a midlands ground like villa or wolves

I'm glad to see that there a good few fans on here which are located in the Midlands and as has been said I'm sure there will be even more once the season gets under way.

At the moment it is just an idea but definately something I would like to get developed in the future if there was enough interest. Definately a good idea to contact the club and see if they can get something put in the programme or something to make people more aware of it and I did remember the link with Coventry Bears last season so I could have a word with them and other RL clubs in the Midlands.

Also I think it would be a great idea to have a one off game somewhere in the Midlands. IMO it is certainly an area which can be easily developed (moreso than others) into becoming more involved with RL. Unlike Quins and Catalan it is a bit more closer to the Lancashire/Yorkshire clubs and it consists of big cities such as Birmingham, Coventry and Nottingham which already have teams involved.

I would also like to see charity shield style game at the start of the season. GF winners v CC winners and every year this could be held at a different venue throughout England to make people more aware of the game. Fans wouldnt have a problem travelling to watch their team play in a 25,000+ seater stadium. Tickets could be given out through RL teams in the area the game is played and I dont think selling tickets would be a problem due to it being a game between the two best teams of the previous season. This is probably too much for the RFL to think of though.

Bozeat, near Wellingborough. I was a season ticket holder for 6 years and my employer allowed me a shift working Sat - Wed to allow time of for friday nite rugby. I had permenant digs booked and used to have a great time.

Unfortunately SKY, RFL and ey Whelan

seem to change matchdays at a whim, I only managed 4 games last season and this doesn't look to be much better. Sadly digs are no more (Mabbs Cross and Charles Dickens)
Driving not an option I enjoy a meal and a tipple while in Wigan.

Keep me informed of any developments

Cov warrior, what was the link with Coventry Bears?
We have Leicester Storm, a link with them could be good as well.
