Fulltime sits in gym before training, part time finishes work before training. If they can't meet training obligations,they shouldn't be semi-pro. |

London have long had there chance low crowds no permanent home sorry but that ain’t the answer |

einstien said insanity is when a person does the same thing over and over again but expects a different result: |

Also York have to go to derwent Park and win which is a difficult thing to do.'" ]
Yeah I know I was just trying to explain what could happen I think you’ll still go up whether it’s top spot or through the play offs |

There was a time when our club worked like that |

Really? Say as opposed having a very long time (170 years this year since the club was formed), yet still only managing on below subsistence crowds, only existing because of 1 benefactor and a forced merger whilst now rattling around a chasm of a soccer stadium with only partial income for matchday spending......yeah, London are a waste but let's keep investing in Huddersfield because they're the best run club in the sport  |

London need a new owner, someone like David Argyle could make a great success of a London Super League team |

| Quote: JEAN CAPDOUZE "We need Bradford to be promoted to the Championship at the end of this season. It is a powerful club in terms of fan base. It has a long, rich history. It has won much silverware. It has had a glittering array of stars in their playing ranks. The club gave coach Brian Noble great fame and coach Steven McNamara his start in life.
Bradford is one of four clubs in existence who we desperately need to be promoted to Super League (the other three being Toronto, Toulouse and London).'"
In terms of fan base are you for real when you are for the likes of London, Toulouse and Toronto who bring no fans what so ever |

David Argyle, like David Hughes at London does nothing other than write cheques. Hughes drops 2 million a year as Argyle will have to do from next year onwards if they make SL........The problem isn't Hughes, the Problem is what the club are allowed to do with that 2,000,000........ |

Have you been to a game at Lamport Stadium?
It’s probably the best game day experience throughout the Championship and Super League.
David Argyle is the top dog at the Wolfpack, he is ultimately responsible for everything that happens. |

I don't think he has, but he seems to know more about the club than the owner does. |

As Castleford found out last season, you can beat a team all you want in the league, it's how you perform when it matters that counts! |

Bit of stating the obvious that remark, someone like David Argyle at any club you care to mention could make a successful Super League team, if he can do it in completley virgin territory in Canada he could do it anywhere, Workington? Keighley? Newcastle? Fev? Leigh? do you want me to go on, till I've named every club. |

The Lamport stadium just looks like a bigger version of Dewsbury's.

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.
