Big call this,but this is probably the worst RFL decision I've ever seen.

| It’s fair enough really, Saints & Wire have to travel for at least thirty minutes.

You could be right Dave, worse than the free pizza deal or Eddie Stobart ? I think so.

Pathetic decision!
Huddersfield and Headingley would have offered more seating and at least been a central location for all clubs. Why bother working with the government and authorities in trying to improve the caoacity, when their were several other no brainer options.
Can’t wait to see the RFL’s justification on this one????
It will be embarrassing if any club fails to sell their ticket allocation.

| Mark Foster, the RFL’s Chief Commercial Officer, said: "We know the restrictions on capacity at Leigh Sports Village are going to mean frustration and disappointment for some who would want to support their teams in person.
We share that frustration, but this event was scheduled over six months ago and it became clear recently, that while it is great that fans would be allowed inside the stadium, it was going to be an event with unique challenges, involving six teams playing at the same stadium in the period between the partial reopening of stadiums to fans in Step 3 of the Government Roadmap out of Lockdown, and the further easing in Step 4 later in June.
"We are grateful to Leigh Sports Village and the four Semi-Finalists for the way that they have worked with us to get to this stage and to the BBC for their live coverage of all 3 games meaning that those fans who are unable to attend in person at the stadium can still watch the game live on TV.”
Reading this he is acknowledging the RFL has made the wrong decision!!
He shares the fans frustration. Do something about it then!!

Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?: |

| Quote: "Several stadiums were considered based on being a neutral venue for the 4 Semi Finalists, being available on June 5, being able to host Rugby League, being geographically located somewhere accessible for the fans who would want to attend. Measured against this criteria Leigh Sports Village was the best stadium to host the event.'"

so 6 months ago, they agreed Leigh would be suitable.......how many months since the lockdown stages being unlocked have they known about fans being allowed back? enough time to organise a different or another venue!
just utter amateurism again from our sport!

I doubt it, they could have been one of the semi finalists.

| Travel distances to Leigh:
St Helens 11 miles
Warrington 10 miles
Castleford 60 miles
Hull 106 miles
Plus 3/4 of the Women’s teams are from Yorkshire.
Upon reflection, these games should have been held at Widnes, as this is only 7 miles from St Helens and Warrington and would have been better for the RFL environmental initiative!
