Ah so that's what was being referred to! All money in the coffers and promotion of the stadia/club

All the feedback on the stadium from rugby fans has been incredibly positive. I think it's a sport the club should go all in on hosting big events for (which they are).

I hope this is being played on the artificial turf.

I hope this is being played on the artificial turf.

That weekend in November is when the World Cup starts, so the PL will be on a month-long break. If the game's played on natural grass, the grounds crew will have taken care of any damage by the time the PL returns to action.
