THE RED ROOSTER Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 TRL Question to thiose in the know - Where will the Lolndon Chargers be playing this game.against Elbra Rangers I know they train on Clapham Common and I do recall them being part of a pre-season triple header at New River Stadium a few years ago which I think was the Challenge Cup for them. So New River Stadium on 15th January ? Quote When the pinch comes the common people will turn out to be more intelligent than the clever ones. I certainly hope so.

usain bolt Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Usually the BBC and our league show a game, nothing been advertised as yet. Wonder if they're going to show any games this year from the early rounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like they’ve decided to ‘keep it local’ with both games close to BBC Sport HQ. Makes sense with Covid etc I guess. Be good to see the new Hurricanes in action and how they go.

Well remembered regarding the west Wales, didn't think that was the first couple of rounds though, the ones I remembered were the Wigan st pats v Leigh miners, and Rochdale Mayfield v North Wales games. Thatto heath v Dewsbury and Siddal v Toronto too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re right the first round is normally the ‘smaller’ sides and don’t think they’ve ever shown one from outside the heartlands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re right the first round is normally the ‘smaller’ sides and don’t think they’ve ever shown one from outside the heartlands. To be fair though history shows that the heartland community clubs are more likely to compete or even pull off the odd surprise win than those from the rest of the UK/Ireland. The BBC will look for a likely competitive tie when making their choice so that will tend to involve the top level community clubs which tend to be in the heartlands. For this year the Army being involved in the stream will appeal to a wider geographic area due to serving or ex Army personnel. It also helps that the Army have won cup ties in recent years.

So New River Stadium on 15th January ? You've probably seen for yourself but noticed it is at Chiswick RU on the 15th with a 1pm kick off. I can confirm 30+ less sales for Scotland vs Italy at Workington, after this afternoons test purchase for the Tonga match, £7.50 is extremely reasonable, however a £2.50 'delivery' fee for a walk in purchase is beyond taking the mickey, good luck with that, it's cheaper on the telly.
