My immediate impression of the crowd was that we had as many as the Broncos. OK, we probably didn't have 900, but certainly 300 is far, far too low. 600-700 more like.
No-one had a bad game, mnay had very good games. We totally dominated the match, just couldn't get the ball over theline often enough - thanks to some superb defence from London.
Just remember, we were the only top 4 side to win against weaker opposition. We went for two points and got them.
We also got over the '800 for' mark. A fantastic achievement - especially for a side which 'doesn't finish the opposition off'.
Not only are we top of the league, but we are SL's top points scorers.
We definitely had more folk there as we were all in one stand and London in the other side and I recall commenting at the time we've got more than them and looking back at my photos the opposite stand was quite empty. Now unless there were more in the boxes then fine but we know all about peoples crowd estimates so lets all have an opinion, I've had official figures in the past but still been told I'm wrong. I didn't buy from the club but I did swap the young uns away voucher only to leave it in the hotel and had to pay a fiver for him!!
I really hope London stay around if not for a yearly weekend away, but the sneers from the other rugby lot. Our train was full of them. The stewards at the stoop believe the broncos will still be there next season. But I recall when we went last year and there were boxes of season tickets still not claimed by fans, are their figures based on season tickets sales as per some clubs as Sat there were certainly nowhere near 1800 in the ground sadly!
think taai deserves a mention on this game... set up eorl for one try and also scored one himself.. certainly likes to have big performances on away days!
