[QUOTE="RedruthRFC, post: 764406, member: 58362"] Sorry for the delay, I've not been online much this week. You're correct. I thought this would be pretty easy for our northern posters (although we do appear to lack Yorkshiremen), although maybe I forget how far above the average age of a poster I am! Cross Green is a nice, traditional club ground, but it's a reflection of how far that the World Cup has come in 24 years that it was used. Based on my visit there 6 or seven years ago, 5,000 would have been a tight fit, although maybe temporary facilities increased the capacity. The home of my own club (Redruth RFC funnily enough) hosted the All Blacks back in 1993 and packed 17,000 in. The capacity is well below that these days as surfaces have been allowed to decline and barriers have been removed. [/QUOTE]
