Attendances are 2 points in the licence application process.........2 points we failed to get last time, 2 we will fail to get this time, but still, London RL is contributing to the game and has produced 2 cockney internationals in recent times.
...I'll stop you there,,,,,enough said ![]() As for going bust trying to buy something.......maybe widnes was the early pointer to the global recession ![]()
No they won't! Fax average for 2003 = 2,976 , Quins average for 2010 (so far) = 3,011. I make that a difference of 35.
It's funny how people only ever quote 2003 when talking about Fax and choose to ignore our other 7 years in SL. That was a year when we had cut things down to the bone to clear a rolling historic debt which had been ignored for long enough. Relegation was a certainty from day 1. I would estimate our average attendance for our SL years would be around the 6,000 mark. If anyone disputes that I will try to dig out all the figures but at present I can't be d.
Finally, just for fun, if you removed our 2 lowest home gates of 2003 and recalculated the average it would make 3,218. Who were these 2 gates against? You got it, London.

They move the goalposts so much, nothing they say can really be trusted.'"
Well now you've written "fact" in capital letters after your opinion, then that's certainly true. That's the law, isn't it ? |

| Quote: Widnes 'till i die "I've only been to a handful of games over the last few years (not living near enough to widnes atm), so only see them play when they are on sky on a thursday. Because of this, until i move back home, i dont feel i can contribute to most discussions, so i tend to read the forum but only post on it occasionaly.'"
If you cannot comment on Widnes who is allegedly your club, how the blinking heck are you qualified to discuss Harlequin business which I would imagine you know even less about than your beloved Widnes working on the basis that if you have only seen them a handful of times in the last few years, you must have seen the Quins even less. |

You certainly did! I was there and remember it well. I had business in South Wales on the Monday morning so decided to travel down on Sunday via Brentford to see the game. Our last victory in SL.

Speaking of which I was most disghusted on Sunday to view my crusaders quins ticket and find the match listed as Harlequins super league xv vs crusaders! No wonder the books don't balance if they can't count the number of
players.

Little Pepe went to nursery school one day wearing his Widnes hat. His teacher asked him why he was a Widnes fan. He said, “Because my parents are.” His teacher said, “That’s not good.

So? We are still above 4 heartland clubs and the only club in France. Pretty good if you ask me.

I’m not disputing that. I did congratulate Harlequins in my post.
I was just pointing it out to ‘gutterfax’, who was asking about our youth system and questioning its success. |

Bit of a shame that Widnes has also produced two young players who've been lost to RL and are involved in the current England RU setup - Stephen Myler & Nicky Royle. |
