I have to ask the following of the management of the NIC Don't bother to open the link unless you want to go! www.motorpointarenasheffield.co.uk/whats-on/european-figure-skating-championships-2012/Yes...the European Figure Skating Championships 2012 22nd to 29th January 2012 at the Motorpoint Arena SheffieldDid the management of the NIC in partnership with the City Council put a bid in for this? and if so why wasn't it sucessfulThe last time it was in the UK was 20 years ago in Birmingham (if my memory serves me correctly) so it will be another 20 years before its back again What has Sheffield got that the NIC (National Ice Centre!) is missing? It would have meant a nice investment into the local eceonomy whilst it was on.

What has Sheffield got that the NIC (National Ice Centre!) is missing? More seats? Onsite car parking? But more probably... a clear calendar... seeing as the Capital FM Arena already has Strictly Come Dancing Live 2012 and TNA Wrestling booked during that period... plus 2 Panthers home games.
