I think Anfield is a great suggestion, it's an historic world famous ground with a great atmosphere, and with the new tier they are bulldog capacity will be approx 54k with new corporate facilities. Liverpool is also a massive northern city where we don't get much coverage (despite Widnes and Saints not being too far away)
Not keen on the ideas of Coventry and Milton Keynes, both places aren't the kind that would attract many northern fans to go down for the weekend like London would, and we would need thousands of fans to travel from the heartlands to make it work.
It's quicker and easier for fans east of the pennines to get to MK and Coventry than it is liverpool. Theres also plenty of amatuer clubs in the vicinity of both as well as other Southern based fans that make up at least half of the tickets sold for Internationals at the big London venues so tbh 'Northerners' need not hold out for reduced tickets as per to make it worthwhile.
Anfield is outdated with crappy seating, the Anfield area itself is a complete dump in a not very nice area.
If the RFL go with Anfield for one of the big games I for one wouldn't bother attending.
