| Quote the original stevo="the original stevo"in a nut shell the city was too big for the event it took away the family/carnival atmosphere that we had at cardiff which i thoroughly enjoyed ie the street performers walkin about the mascots mingling with supporters opposing supporters havin the crack with the banter all this was missing i don't blame the rfl i blame the local council i don't know for sure but i didn't for one see any kind of posters etc arond the city???'" But all that banter was happening in the stadium pretty much all day. The mascots were wandering around for a good few hours before the start of the event.
Cardiff was excellent, and there was a lot of banter in the streets just outside the stadium (within 50metres), however this now took place just inside the stadium grounds (within 50metres). I do however appreciate that not everybody would want to drink in a stadium due to limited drinks choice.
What posters are you looking for? If you are talking about promotion of the event, well that is a completely seperate point.

There was more to do in Edinburgh than Cardiff, all within a short bus ride away if you didn;t want to hang around the stadium.

£3 for an allday ticket, although they don't have change on the buses.

| i thought it was quality. i liked it because the stadium was a little out. it meant people had to be entertained in the stadium complex, and i think they were. if the 30,000 people who were there each day stayed and watched each match, then it would have looked fine on the telly, and the atmospheres for each game would have been good. when we played, there were very little in the way of leeds fans left, and even the majority of the hull fans had left, and not supported us against their rivals. a bit more publicity around edinboro wouldn't go amiss, but the scots were fine with it, and enjoyed having league fans in their city, and they were keen to have us back. all in all, espcially in these trying economic times, it must go down as a success
