Yep, we should hold events in Manchester and Liverpool too, like the Grand Final or the Four Nations Final. Oh wait.....
Yes of course there are working class people in London etc, but I'll wager the average new fan from London has a fair bit more to spend that the average new fan from our heartlands, and is thus more attractive to sponsors.

I agree with putting a game in Liverpool, but why not one in Manchester? That has to be the biggest oversight currently in our game. I know Salford fans won't like it, but I think they should have merged with some other clubs in greater manchester to form a team called 'Manchester X's'.
GF doesn't count because 99% of the people there will be fans of the clubs and it doesn't have the same appeal as internationals. I can tell you when the 6 nations will be this year but I don't even know what month the RU playoffs are.
