Quote: Red John "London's average attendance this season will be something like 2,800. Ours will be around 5,600. So, after just 30 years, they've already managed to achieve an average attendance that is around half of the figure we've taken 130 years to achieve.

There may be clubs out there whose fans can criticise London's attendances. We aren't one of them.'"



Your 5600 average attendance figure is definitely up for argument. The attendances figures this year have been totally miscounted, with numerous corrections subtracted from the attendances first given. I find it hilarious the ijit's actually believe they've won more support than lost since the move to Barton. If there is an increase in attendances this year it totally through the vast followings of away support.

Quote: Always behind the sticks "Thanks for that, I'd not realised just how far away from you all those RU clubs are (apart from Quins of course who I incorrectly said were on your doorstep when in fact they're in your house with their feet up on the sofa!)'"
Given that Broncos rent the ground, technically we're in Quins house, and I don't think we're allowed to put our feet on the sofa.
How I wish they were round the corner from my own house, like I said, two hours each way for a home game. icon_sad.gif

Quote: Perry "
Saracens have played at Watford for 15 years. Watford isn't London, even if it is inside the M25. Now granted they are about to move to Copthall (inside the GLA), but then again their average gate is about the same as your own.
'London' Wasps play at High Wycombe, 12 miles outside the M25 and 32 miles from the city of London.
'London' Irish play at Reading, 19 miles outside the M25 and 39 miles from the city. Think about that one for a second, 39 miles is probably most of your away games with the exception of Hull.
And the newly promoted 'London' Welsh will be playing (I kid you not) at Oxford, 50 miles from the city. And bear in mind all these distances are 'as the crow flies', which is fine if you're a crow, not so much help in a car or on the train.
'"


Perry,
I think I should tell you that coming on here and informing folk of rugby union sides playing at stadia not belonging to them could be met with some resistance. 7.84765625:5
