Having said all that, I'd actually like to watch a top level rugby match.But again, a couple of games year (because that's the max we're talking about here) is hardly enough to make the stadium be known for the thing. Rugby League is a minority sport Dave, if people who love it (myself being one) come to view our new stadium as one of the homes of that game then it can only be a good thing. Nobody outside of the Rugby League bubble will ever associate it with the sport because they don't care.
The city of Liverpool has had rugby league teams in the past: Liverpool Stanley RFC, Liverpool City RFC, which morphed into Huyton RFC.
It's not completely alien but it hasn't got the interest of scousers generally speaking.
