fox ... 06/07 season ... I remember it well ... we held the playoffs final that year as well (when it was a 2 day event) Lost to Plymouth in the Trophy. After the game, I was collared by an ITV News reporter to discuss the game, I gave what I thought was a credible 20 sec interview. On the news, they showed about 3 secs of it, and completely misquoted me ... I looked like a right angry tit  . ... but we did win the playoffs against ... ahem!! ... some other team  ... so it wasn't all bad  Incidently, Good year for PJ at Heat (2 cups)  |

One of the many times that Rocks were beaten by Eagles in a final. |

I've heard the obvious suggestion of switching it to London if it turns out to be an all-London final. The truth is, at 3 weeks notice, you wouldn't be able to sell it out even if it was held at the Copper Box.

Supporters of the finalists would be a fairly small number of the attendees, i'd imagine.

Just as well Rocks failed to qualify, or we'd have to start a "why are Rocks allowed to play a final on their home court" thread.
We'd also have to deal with conspiracy theories about the BBL wanting Glasgow to qualify... I seem to remember that happening before.
