[QUOTE="TRF_Cymro, post: 366823, member: 40909"] The flights are chartered by the clubs and also by the airlines, all the Welsh regions tend to fly from Cardiff Airport to places. I don't get you when you make such a deal of teams traveling to fly when you say Wrexham to Manchester is a simple task, no doubt as it's only just under and hour to get there. Then when you say that time sort of factors derbies, its not really its the history each region has with each other and the clubs that were put together to make those regions. It's not really feasible for the North Wales region to even consider playing their games at the Racecourse Stadium anyway. Yes it holds some 700 seats more than Parc Y Scarlets but that is here or there really. Two teams currently occupy the Racecourse Stadium in Wrexham FC and the Crusaders RL, so the North Wales region would have to look at playing there games somewhere else. Its all well and good demanding a 5th region but when the finances are not there and when the squad strength would be worse than that of Arioni then its not feasible to even consider the RGC 1404 as a region, they have potential but I have serious doubt they could even compete with the likes of the Blues and Dragons for example.
