What do you think?

If you’ve got a view on this story, we’d love to hear from you. sport@ eveningtimes. co.uk or on Facebook or myself, like the league, to fully rule this in or out one way or the other.

“I would like to know if there are different options, and different cost levels accordingly, rather than an anecdotal 10 grand a game and that’s it.”
