Quote: TrinityIHC "ah of course, what visit to the Rugby would be complete without a game of laser tag? or climbing up a plastic wall? or paying a fiver for a pint of beer?
If it does get built (touch wood) - i for one certainly wouldn't be hanging around in the Chav Mecca for my pre and after match activities. Although of course I know plenty of people who love nothing more than a Skiing session before they head off to the rugby.'"
Where exactly have you been paying 5 quid a pint?
i personally do think xscape is expensive for drinks, but no more so than wakefield town centre.
Where is this plastic wall, of the two climbiing walls at glasshoughton one is made of ice, one wood.
You dont think a family might want to to take there kids skiing or surfing (which they may have never had the opportunity to do before) if the facilities are right in front of them?
A few years ago me and some mates used to go to the cinema after the match, sometimes this also extended to bowling, pool or lazer tag. No we have to walk one minute after the game instead of 30 i think we might do so again.
You may not choose use any of the facilities at glasshoughton on match days but others will, the site already averages 3000 visitors a day,so clearly people do want to shop, eat and be entertained there, its not a great leap of logic to see that many rl fans would also want to use these facilities (and that many already do).
I think i just figured out what IHC stands for on your username.
