    Press Confrence is March 19th.

    Looking at either the City or County Ground I presume. If not the MEN and 02 which both do 18,000 plus.

    When do they announce ticket prices? Or do you just find out at 2pm on the day they go on sale?

    Are football fans THAT shallow?

    I don't think Forest fans, such as myself, would really care. It would be amazing to have in on the Red side of the Trent, but to have it in Nottingham at all would suffice. :good

    Wembley would be perfect for me :)
     
  15. Most of them are, yes.

    If I was a boxer I'd love to fight at a rugby ground, but I think Odsal would be a better venue than Headingley.

    Even though it looks like a shithole (and is really) with a bit of TLC it could be the Wembley of the north. The terraces only go about half way up the banking.

    Back in the day they had over 100k in here :yikes
