To be fair it's still to this day a disgrace that clubs likes yourselves missed out on SL whilst experiment clubs like this get in. A Keighley club developed over the years would be getting 5000-6000 every home game now in SL.
Whereever in Wales it is played, the Crusaders should be getting a lot more then that for a game.  |

I put the of two in brackets to stop pedantic folks from pointing out that it wasn't a one-off as they would be playing another game there against Quins.Little did I know...

So, a club that has been around since 1876 would be getting 5-6000 fans.......fair point, though most of them would probably be Bradford fans  To be honest roofs.....Oldham had a go and failed, as did halifax and leigh, workington etc etc etc...... but you think another small team would fair better....er, OK. |

First of all,
There was not 1495 in the ground, Whatsoever, I would say 600-800. Tops.
As for the homophobic chants, I didnt hear anything too bad been sung. Both sets of fans sang about the 40k, Cas fans asked for a wave from GT, And i think for a split second asked "Wheres your boyfriend gone" Wrong, But it wasnt as bad as people are making out, Or i sure didnt hear it anyway.
I did think to say how embarassing the attendence was, And how poor the game was, The atmosphere wasnt too bad.
What an advert for the game though, Seeing crowds like that.

Too be honest there is a little point in playing these games in Neath. Just keep them all in Wrexham and let SWS develop neath.

How do you reckon? They won promotion from Division II to Division I, they played in Division I. |

Wrong way to look at it - they won the second tier title (twice running IIRC) but were never given a chance in the top tier. Still an absolute disgrace and always will be, that club had potential. |

| Quote: gutterfax "see....here we go again me old mucker......crowds crowds crowds.....
Londons SL team, in whatever form, Quins or Broncos has worked on a development level......and Quins now have the most english squad in SL.........no preferential treatment (that's saved for other clubs in the north east who need extra australians to fill their squad) ![]()
If it's worked on a developmental level and (as we're always told) more schools in London then ever before are playing RL, why does this not lead to more young fans coming through the gates? Somethings going wrong somewhere you can't deny that. Actually it's not a case of things been wrong, you could be top of SL and your crowds wouldn't really be any higher IMO, there just is not the interest in RL in London and there never will be. Not once when I went to London last month did I see a Quins shirt (a Quins RU top mind), whereas during a 5 minute walk round here you see Hull & Rovers shirts, car scarves, stickers etc, that's the difference my friend.
Erm, short memory haven't we - Austrailians to fill the squad? Are you forgetting the early days of SL when the majority of your squad was Aussie. 
Re our squad, we gave another local lad his debut on Sat, whilst young Sam Latus got his first SL try under his belt, all going fine on the developmental side thanks.

The only way to look at it. Are you suggesting that winning the Division II title in that year should have ensured promotion to Super League, when even finishing below 10th in Division I didn't get you in? |
