       I saw that but the date has now been changed to TBC. Seems like
       they accidently announced it.
       But we saw the date, we saw it all. (Said to the tone of Sir
       Patrick Stewart in "Extras").

       Probably can’t be helped but will be less of a buzz unlike the
       family set up during the between Xmas/NYE. Weekend before Xmas
       usually is manic and everyone is brassic as it’s the wrong side
       of pay day.

       I dare say this is driven by factors beyond the clubs control
       and is less than ideal. It’s going to be a hard sell.

       It was the only option given the engineering works - the least
       worst is probably the best way of describing it!

       Yeah that's going to be a really tough sell, given how much we
       rely on it for our annual revenue that's a big hurdle to get
       over for the year.

       I think we will still get over the break even point, but I think
       if the club want to maximize the chance of getting a higher
       attendance, the away team ideally need to be as local as
       possible. Sarries would be the obvious choice, but its not a
       great selection as our home advantage at the stoop is worth more
       than say if we played Saints again

       Sarries also don't have much of an away following. Be better off
       with Saints or Bath probably.

       My personal pick would be Bristol, playing good rugby and trains
       aren't too much of a pain
