well thats what we keep getting told !!

I've had enough of them.

Waste of a franchise and I don't believe the city needs a Super League team just so the sport receives exposure.

Have they even got a sponsor?

Go get Brian Noble & put him in charge. He would at least get them competing.

Get them in the Olympic stadium, give away free tickets for schools etc..
Be a great way to get the young generation into rl

In all honesty I always thought expanding slower from the rugby league hotbed was a better way forward, going to Cumbria, eventually midlands etc.
Obviously France has proved the it can be done outside the main areas.

The R.F.L, ?

I have - once before when Tricky Dicky walked away and I wished we could be put out of our misery. But then we (and the visiting support) had some great seasons at Brentford and at the start at the Stoop. Mind you it's been a hard slog waiting for the phoenix to rise again this time and unless something spectacular happens it could be terminal.

I understand why some heartlands supporters get frustrated with the London "experiment". But if they want to know what frustration is they should try being London supporters!

So when the mighty wigan were averaging 4000-5000 or so for home games in the biggest hotbed of rugby league (& likely leaking money hand over fist) back in the early 80s should we have subjected them to the self same treatment that some fans are trying to ply against London?
jesus I don't see how it is effecting your club so badly that you want them out of SL.

London are a terrible advertisement for our sport. No fans. No idea. As an RL fan they embarrass me.

The sooner Gus Mackay does what he was brought in to do and closes them down the better.

2 home fixtures next for London. Wakey then Catalans. I'd be surprised if either game gets over 1000 fans.

What makes it worse is that the Wakey game is live on sky. Viewing the swathes of empty seats looks terrible on camera and is a bad advert for our game.

That last bit isn't true but it does make your point. Catalan is in a very strong RL area. It's supported by 2 semi-pro leagues and a large number of junior clubs, certainly way more than London. I would dare suggest that a few of the elite division French teams are better funded and set up than London.

What's the fact that it's Wakefield got to do with it, where is the stone people like you crawl out from under.

I dont think it's a judgment on Wakey fans. You're being over sensitive. It's just a sky game, non traditional time, London looking very poor, crowds have been shocking even by their standards, and Wakefield are not one of the games biggest. It'd be the same for Widnes, Cas or Salford etc etc.

I think Wakey may bring 400/500 but there is also a groupon ticket offer that many have taken advantage of where adult entry works out at around £7 !!!.

I know hughes has deep pockets but they are not bottomless and one day he will say enough is enough. The London club is not sustainable and I think they may pull out at the next franchise round.
