Discovery will be looking at what brings in the most money, and that includes sponsorship. 5 or 6,000 at belle vue will be a harder sell compared to 20 to 30,000 at Cardiff. I think cardiff tourist board/authority also supported the staging of the GP financially.
You can get a decent enough tickets for £20, thats less than Premiership meeting, Its definitely not ticket prices putting people off. Hotel prices are a killer though, £200 to £400 near city centre on gp day
The way the championship is shaping up 4 teams from oxford poole workington Glasgow and Scunny are going to make the play offs. We all know Glasgow will open the wallet and bring in some foreigner on a ridculously low average which means its very important for Scunny to rack up a big score now to secure the bonus point....... it could be crucial in play off race
Poole been drawn against Scunny then? Hopefully we don't get drawn against each other in the BSN or we could be playing each other 3x in the next month or so, 4x if we meet in the play offs.
I am all for track covers but they have to get them so all the water perfectly drains to the centre green. Gorzow recently cancelled a league meeting because water leaked on to the track on one corner.
