I'd prefer one over this side where the Lancashire clubs have to do a bit of travel. Newcastle would be a great weekend.

Newcastle would get my vote.

Liverpool may be a vibrant city but the football grounds are both holes surrounded by downtown Homs. It just wouldn't work there.

Agreed. The Sky team were bigging up the Widnes support on tv today. Lets see how well they travel when its not a 20 minute bus ride. Both Hull clubs were there in great numbers yesterday despite the rumours of the cup final effect cutting numbers.

Newcastle over Liverpool any day, the area around Anfield is a dump and the city centre is quite a distance.

Portsmouth

Could do Portsmouth. Is Joanna's still on the go?
Had many a good time in there when based in Gosport and Nelson

No, the Naval School of Dancing has been demolished after a major fire. Little left from the good old days I'm afraid.

Bloody hell, we may as well go the extra and play it in Caen.

The layout of Cardiff is by far the best, keeps all the rugby fans together and makes it more of a carnival feel, shame the place is a nightmare to get to and the hotels a rip off.

Cardiff was great. Only a short distance to the ground from the bars.
Didn't help putting our game on last on the Sunday.

Boobs in Plymouth suffered the same fate.
End of an era
