| Quote wigginswarrior="wigginswarrior"The next question has to be, how many fans, plus regular passengers, would said train accommodate?'"
Enough when considering how many will use it (it's enough when we've played CC finals at Wembley)and there's others prior to that which people would make comfortably as well.
There may be some issues with this game being in London but train travel isn't one of them.

| Quote Bert's Medal="Bert's Medal"Wigan have specifically targeted this particular date for the match, since England are playing at San Marino at 5pm that afternoon. That means that there are no Premier League or Championship football fixtures that weekend.'"
What? It just gets worse. Doesn't that mean that a fair chunk of the potential 'local' target audience (football and general sports fans) will be watching England on the telly, instead of turning out to watch an unfamiliar sport in a notoriously unwelcoming stadium...?

| This on the Millwall board made me chuckle: Quote From their point of view...bit of a strange choice. The Den is one of the easiest stadiums in London to get to, being literally next to an overground station, plus within walking distance of 3 tube stations...however, it's not exactly the venue that will attract lots of curious families or even many northern ex pats...which is surely the whole point of this exercise. After all, most northern football clubs bring on average 500 odd less to us than they do to more suburban London grounds like Charlton & Palace.
The idea of loads of Johnny Vegas types wandering around Bermondsey is like a Monty Python sketch it's so surreal. '"
Although as Vegas is a Stainer, they really should get their facts straight.

The thing that interests me most about this is the thought that it is somehow great for RL as a whole playing a drab, atmosphere free match in a dodgy part of London.
Is IL really so vain as to think anyone in London will even know this is happening? If he wants to entertain London corporates, take them to the Olympic stadium for England v NZ.
I work in London, I regularly entertain clients at sports events in London, there is not a cat in hells chance I would invite anyone along to this.

I have no idea mate... He must have something going on for him to do it. If not, then i'm really at a loss as to why we are doing this.. Expletives are of course banned from use here, but pluck the rest of RL, the rest of RL loves to see us fail.

| I am trying to convince myself that IL has spotted something us mere mortals haven't, that no one can have the business success and amass the personal fortune he has by dropping huge clangers. However, I simply cannot see how this plan benefits anyone in the sport other than, possibly, Catalan Dragons.

| As a season ticket holder and this is a home game that I won't be able to attend, am I still allowed to use the 'ticket swap' (or whatever it's called) facility to get an additional seat for another home game?
Genuine question, I would go if I could

Wouldn't have thought so - it was always billed as a bonus game that was included in the cost of the ST anyway. Plus if we'd have finished outside the Top 4 you'd only have got 3 games.
