No need for fixture list and glad to see that the Barca/Brive venues are still On but this year am only down for the July 18th game. The Euro rate is a 'killer'

However what did happen to the much mooted 'stadium improvements'.
....put off because of fiscal problems? If so would accept this a quite reasonable in the current difficult climate but if it's for any other reasons it would be interesting to know.

Noted last year the media indicated that the Brutus was at full capacity for certain games and then indicated gates of just over 8K. The 'listed' capacity on the same media sites is given as 10K

So what is the actual current 'legal' capacity of your venue and it's seat/standing ratios. The current SL franchise minimum capicity is 12K and so Dragons are a bit short on that front - which is I believe also means 12K seated and was first set ten years ago.

why do you care?

No answer we give you will seem to satisfy this bizarre urge of yours anyway.

I thought they were playing a few games at Aime Giral while Brutus was being done up.

stormingbronco is correct to highlight some touchiness from the regulars on here IMHO

It gets wearing having to answer non-questions and bizarre conspiracy theories.

Games scheduled for Barcelona and Béziers. Work at the ground ongoing. All this is in the public domain. Not sure what other 'truth' and other terms couched within single quotes for no apparent reason are required here.

So they're not going to SAG? What's the capacity at SGB in the meantime? I demand 'answers'.

It's just 'shy' of ten 'thousand'. Can't remember exactly. Will be over 12 'thousand' when the work is 'finished'.

I think what they meant was that it was a "sell-out", not "full capacity" (personally I blame a lack of bilingual RL reporters). It is common that all tickets are sold, but the stadium remains not at capacity - the Tsunamis of the last Wigan(?) game are a good example.

That Warrington game in the play-offs as well.

Still would like to know when the 'work' will be finished......and has it started anyway. Was under the impression that most home games would be away from the sradium this year to enable the work to be undertaken but seemingly this is not the case,
