West Ham lose there bid to move into the ground, and changes to renting only..

What are the chances for London RL of Quins (as they are still named) moving into there after the Olympics? Would be brilliant to share with one of the football teams IMO

They could open the first two rows only to keep the atmosphere crackling initially, but I'm with you in spirit.

Circa £2m annual rent? Or is that collective?

As I understand it West Ham are still likley to be the anchor tenant, so if they cover the majority rental/annual running cost, which they probably will, having a second field sport team play there, RL or RU, would be good business and means that the management company could charge a more reasonable rent for a second lower-income generating tenant.

Well f**k my hat, I didn't know that! Come all without, come all within, we're London Broncos not the H********s!:16679.jpg



Speaking as a Hammers and London RL fan there's almost no chance whatsoever that West Ham will fill this stadium on a regular basis (average gates are about the 30k mark at present, even allowing for a return to the Premier League it'll be 40k at best) so what hope a London RL team? I had hoped one of the smaller Olympic venues (eg hockey stadium) could be a viable bet for a 15k capacity stadium if London RL wants to find a home of its own. Could be an alternative venue for internationals (World Cup in 2013) or if the powers that be wanted to move the Magic Weekend to London?

The capacity is going to be reduced isn't it?

On talksport today 25k was mentioned as the eventual capacity, if Leyton Orient got the Stadium

That is the obvious and most sensible option, but sense goes out the window when it comes to football finances so it won't happen.

kcab sfrawdder Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done But he with a chuckle replied That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried. So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin On his face. If he worried he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg

It'd be nice to see a RL team playing at the Olympic Stadium but I highly doubt it will ever happen
