When I first heard about this I was curious too. Sheffield has great transport routes, it's very central in the UK so our own players can get here with a reasonable journey, and Sheffield arena has fantastic facilities to accommodate the people coming from their own countries to watch. Some people are just strange.

I do know, from living over here, that the Odyssey Trust expressed an interest in bringing those games to Belfast like they did in 2017.
The reaction to Nottingham getting the games has kinda irked a few for sure.
