The Beaumont lads are regular working class lads done good & very, very good in DB's case !'"

London hosting SL clubs at the West London wedding venue would be fantastic.... Especially on sky. Alas, I suspect that if they were promoted that they would have to move again......

They do a cracking burger down there though, far better than the Brentford burger. |

The only ground in the UK with a pub on each corner is Griffin Park..... The Griffin pub is now a gastro bar..... I emigrated at the right time. |

HOW MANY TIMES?????
£20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000.
The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover.
There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them.
