[QUOTE="Which Tyler, post: 812553, member: 73592"] Kinda... It's a one-off game with established precedence of happening every other year for the last 8 years (and for the next 4); with the guest team receiving 25% of the gate (including NZ twice IIRC). The Welsh do the same; with precendence; though I don't know how much they pay. This time NZ damanded 50%, and we said "no". NZ said they wouldn't come at 25% - we said "so be it". NZ fans now going around basically "we're poor, so we need more" and simultaneously "we're great, so we deserve more"; whilst England fans are basically saying "yeah, maybe, but it's not worth it". It's akin to someone coming into my work, me offering them a 25% discount but them demanding half price because they're special; me saying no, and both sides complaining that the other was unreasonable.
