TOTTENHAM PASSES THE TEST
UPFRONT
OKAY, soit's not Wembley with
all its history, prestige and Challenge Cup associations.
But the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium was still an impressive stage for one of the biggest club matches on the European Rugby League calendar.
We must admit that it was a good venue for the Betfred Challenge Cup Final, given that Wembley was unavailable at the end of May because of the football play-offs.
And as well as those of Huddersfield and Wigan, it was good to see plenty of supporters of 1895 Cup finalists Featherstone and Leigh among the thousands treading new ground, at least as far as our game is concerned.
