It isn't in the middle of nowhere at all though, and if that was a criteria it is far better than Wembley for location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Womer Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 In a few years time they'll be plenty of grounds in London with a capacity of about 70,000 with superb corporate facilities to choose from. Ashburton Grove = Arsenal Olympic Stadium = West Ham White Hart Lane = Spurs - being rebuilt now (the NFL will use this - not Wembley) Stamford Bridge = Chelsea (to be rebuilt next season) And all available for a May / June time final. Wembley is finished IMO - it's easy to get a ticket for something sporting there, so it's lost it's USP. I've been told touts were selling tickets for the CC outside for a fiver - as they were stuck with them (doubt that will happen again). Time to go I feel ......

The Future is League Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 22 hours ago, my missus said: just had a survey from the rl about the challenge cup questions such as "where do you think the challenge cup should be played in future" if this survey goes same as the others ti will not be played at wembley after next year. No ifs no buts it should stay at Wembley the home of the challenge cup imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
