I couldn't agree more. I am sure most rational Rugby Leaague fans and administrators would also back this IF the following conditions were met:
1. This was open and transparent
2. Having a London team is necessary in order to maintain or increase the TV revenue.
It makes no sense to me that we have an expansion area, yet we don't ensure its success at the top level, which is the area that most non league fans see anyway.
I am a Hull KR fan and I love Rugby League. I just want the game to reach its potential, but we continually shoot ourselves in the foot. I know that most people consider union to be our main threat, I disagree. We are.

Quote: Roofs "But surely overall that means then that Quins have a big advantage over the Hull clubs because they have more people to draw from, e.g. the amount of Australians living in the capital?
Urban myth 1: Australians are all 100% League nuts.
Regardless of what some idiots on here would like you to believe, RL is not the No 1 sport in 'stralia...most of the aussies in London own a wannabies shirt....the manager of the walkabout in the bush is an AFL fan.....there is little evidence that there are a load of anzac league fans in the capital.
I have said it many times.....when manly came to london for the WCC warm up there was a meet and greet arranged at the walkabout, the eagles and quins teams were there........30 people rolled up max an 20 of those were Quins RL fans.
It is a myth that all aussies are league mad......SoO Gets big figures on TV because it's a WEDNESDAY night......there is SFA all on the box to compete with.
Urban myth 2 : That all the kids playing RL in the capital MUST therefore attend QRL games. Roofs.....you got a bus to games when you were younger.......London is a tad larger than 'ull. There are many many thousands of kids playing the game in London and this is as a direct result of the london ESL club and the development PAID FOR BY DAVID HUGES.
Times up.......if the RFL don't take responsibility, then I see London folding, SKY pi55ing off and you roofs can get a bus to watch Wigans 100% professionals hammer HKA at a near derelict caravan park.......

The RFL have never let you down yet GF, they'll always bail you out and you are forever guaranteed a franchise, nothing to worry about.
I still don't understand why Sky are allegedly so in love with FCBQE - no-one else cares about them FFS.
In all seriousness it is an absolute joke when a real RL club like Fax continues to get shafted whilst this experiment wrongly keeps an SL place that they never earned in the first place.
One last time ill say it. On what grounds are fax a better club right here, right now. Enough of your dodging. Is it the ground? Nope. Is it the youth sides? nope. Is it on attendances? Currently no, potentially maybe. Other than dire crowds Quins dont do an awful lot wrong and oh yeah, they've never finished bottom. Now quit yer jibber jabber and think before you type
