BM- What do you know about RL in this country. Get back to your backwater country. If the basis of success was solely formed on crowds, within the last ten years if we take 5000 as the threshold we wouldnt have Warrington(Wilderspool days), Widnes, Salford, Cas, Wakey,Hudds to name a few. If Maureen Lindsey had his way they wouldnt exists.
Maybe the NRL should get rid of the Sharks for having the worst crowd.'"
Scousers .
I must have been looking the wrong way in the hundreds, maybe thousands of times I have watched rugby at the Halton Stadium/Naughton Park.
Sure there has been trouble, mainly when we play Wire and the goons crawl out of the woodwork and the odd squabble between individuals who get excitable but the place isn't exactly a burning cauldron of violence.
Don't try to dream up a non existant issue if your is getting twitchy.
If there is always violence there when you attend, then maybe there is one common denominator.
HTH.

Cretinous wipe.

Strange how a supposed hot bed of violence is a good enough temporary home for the likes of Wigan and Saints and is also good enough to host internationals and major cup semi finals....

It's not as bad as some would have you believe but I've seen plenty of trouble when visiting Widnes. Our windscreen got broke while we were driving back as some cretin scouser smacked it a few years back. Me mum also got threatened on a different occasion.
It happens everywhere, but to claim Widnes is somehow innocent because a semi final is played there is a bit ridiculous

Perhaps they didn't realise that a bandwagon had a windscreen.

| The facts are simple.
No one goes to watch Harlequins RL.
England is a small place, but it seems to take forever to actually get anywhere. If hardly any 'home' fans go along then why would any 'away' fans bother?
Harlequins are haemorraging money, they have no fans, they seldom win a game, the 'Moon' is a soul less place to visit because there is zero atmosphere and no one there. They have a 'coach' who can't coach, no big name players. You cant buy a replica kit even if you wanted to.
All I know about Widnes is that it's located near other Superleague clubs and the fans actually seem to care about their club.
From what I recall they raised funds to enable their club to get David Peachy over to play for them. How many London fans would have the cojones to do something like that???
London hasn't worked as a Rugby league entity since its conception back in the 1980s. It wont work.
It's time for them to go.

If anything is going to get fans to rally around Harlequins it's bell-end posts like this one. Where's that Harlequins season ticket link ...................

So what part of my post did you disagree with?
The 'No fans' bit?
The 'Seldom win a game' bit?
The 'Coach who can't coach' bit?
The 'No big name players' bit?
The 'soul less zero atmosphere ground commonly known as the Moon amongst Aussies in London' bit?
What precisely does your club bring to the table?
Seriously?

My club? What are you talking about? Harlequins isn't my club.
It's like conversing with a four year old.

Then why not trot off and comment on a club that you do know something about instead.
Halifax??
They're great aren't they
Remind me again what league they play in?
