90,000 capacity
25,000 from L**ds
25,000 from Warrington
15-20,000 other Rugby fans from the heartlands

15, maybe 20,000 from "elsewhere"

I've seen that 3/5 to 2/5 South-North divide on the Sky viewing figures.

Good to see the BBC sports fella correcting what was a jokey throwaway comment from Robbie Paul at 7.30 in the morning.

The Rugby League Challenge Cup at Wembley will almost certainly attract the weekends biggest attendance of any sporting event in the northern hemisphere and possibly the world (omitting F1).
It will be interesting to see if the media coverage measures up but I won't hold my breath.

It doesn't matter as when Boxing Day rolls around, the myth will be perpetuated that 'Sarries' and whoever have had the 'biggest club rugby crowd' at the new Wembley. Can guarantee that!

Wish I were there...will get the goosebumps as soon as Abide With Me comes one!

As expected, media coverage falls well short. Test cricket, plus alleged betting scandal over no balls, plus a full sleight of football matches... the mentions are there, but just not the prime slot that is deserves.

Not this year you wouldn't, given the way the RFL organised it ....

I've been on holiday to Cornwall over the last few years, a place with little RL heritage and no active RL teams to speak of. In fact, you couldn't get more of an RU area .... And loads of locals admit to watching the game on Sky.

Most of the professional clubs are from the North! But I'm seeing more and more southerns going every year, with as much pride and passion as anyone has.
