Because they can no longer whinge about the ground or the number of imports in the team. |

Back to the 80's with Wigan winning it all as the only professional outfit....FC, Leeds and Wire going part time...with maybe 1 big name each and Union.....picking up the cream of the game.'"
As long as other non playing issues are used by the RFL to decide who plays where , then every club will be pulled for whatever it is weakest at , with Quins it is attendances , with other clubs it is other issues , if you don't want them to be important , then ask to go back to P and R , simple as |

Heading down to Quins on Saturday with Salford. Not looking forward to speaking to any of their knowledgeable, well informed and pleasant fans. I prefer my Rugby League trips to be full of know-nothing Super League hicks.

You're going to be disappointed if you're going in to our nation's capital looking for politeness and a decent conversation from strangers.
I don't really understand your point. Are you saying the quins fans are of higher standard to the rest? Based on what? |

| Quote: Tre Cool "15 away fans? Wakey and Salford are no better than Quins in terms of home support. They're just nearer the rest of SL which bumps their attendances up. I admit it's poor though and Im not sure there's a solution tbh. Not without bags of money and some success. Neither of which look close to happening. Im not sure why it really matters though, as long as we can afford to carry on and are the pinnacle of an exceptional youth and amateur scene in London.
Its a great match day atmosphere, the team are playing some ok stuff this year so I for one would be completely gutted if we disappeared.'"
 Can you back that statement up please. |

Wakey average 6k ish....Salford 4.5k ish.....Quins about 3k ish.......but regardless of those who now ask for proof of the SKY deal (since we were never relegated they had to find a new bone to chew)....Quins RL will be in SL in 2012..........that in itself should be proof enough that SKY want them in

I was suggesting that crowd figures aren't everything and Quins have a large proportion of excellent fans supporting the game in a non-traditional area and this constant sniping at the ones who actually go gets us nowhere. |

Don't doubt it for one minute pal and believe it or not i've no axe to grind with the Quins club.
So its a SKY franchise and not a franchise based on the RFL's critera then?

Not necessarily: there are a number of RLF criteria (listed on the RFL website) some of which Quins are quite strong in. Some of which they are very weak in. Pretty much like most if not all bidding clubs.
