Ta Ra chuck, Corrie repeat must be on in a minute, or is it whippet racing or ferret dangling on telly tonight........

You spanner.
My Grandfather fought in WWI.....but guess what, I am not Andy McNab.
Widnes used to be a great team...they went bust and are currently in the 2nd tier of European Rugby League....

Hope you get some positive news on Friday,as I,ve said on here before I enjoy coming down for the Quins games and have had many a chat with fans in and around the ground,before during and after games.
If as has been mentioned somewhere on here the RFL have forced IL to relinquish his shares,are they being given to Hughes,or just held to give him full control,or indeed has he found a buyer to share in the investment.
What most of the other Guests that come on here and post about your place in SL should realise that very few SL clubs run at a profit,IN fact I think this year MY team are the only ones doing so.
Without the likes of messrs Hughes ,Lenaghan,Davey etc pumping money in very few would be viable on the crowds that are coming through the turnstiles,and most are just grasping at straws because promises were made in the last franchise round and they were not acted on.Now it looks like the chickens are coming home to roost they get all indignant.
Best of luck and see you next year.

is ingrained, some of the London supporters over the years have just drifted away from the club and the sport as other issues take priority in their lives.

What intrigues me is that the provision that the RFL can force someone to dispose of their shareholding in a club would seem to really exist. A certain person not unconnected with the non appearance of Stevo as coach and us nearly losing Struddy before he arrived was talking about this in the late eighties but I tended to ignore him as it was connected with his personal vendetta against Roy Close.

I can't buy into this - people drifting away because of the mis management of the club. Liverpool FC are being mis managed big time but they still get full houses, anti glazer faction at Man U set up another club but Man U still get full houses. Wigan under Mo for the last years would seem to be mismanaged but attracted big crowds.

How has the club been mismanaged? It seems to me that with the resources available they have put out the best team they could but in Gutterfaxs world that meant that there was no money to invest in the m word and build crowds that way. Now there is an arguement that a winning team more than marketing would increase crowds but that is a whole new debate. So mis management? If that means an underesourced back office and systems then yes I would agree - but I guess what money there has been has gone to the team.

I would tend to agree with Homers later post - people's lives change and other priorities come along, coupled with an unsuccessful team and the club not being ingrained in people.

Myself - I love the game and would obviously prefer us to be winning, but the love of the game means I carry on.

Not sure what you mean as I believe it is simple and there is no intrigue at the least? any governing body can have it's own rules and bye-laws and if you sign up to them, then you are deemed to accept them and should adhere to them. Do the Premiership not have the same ruling and no one in football seems to get upset about it?

IL was given a time period to dispose of his share in the club, during that time he made no financial input as far as we are aware, meanwhile DH was left to carry all of the burden with his much lesser share. Is sport not like any business owning shares in any company is a risk and you accept that. The Radio Station I worked all my career for was the first to float on the market at around £6 and at one time they dropped to at under 50p, many staff panicked and sold at 75p, some were wise and then bought in even more in there thousands and made a killing when in time the recovered. No it is right that IL should be forced to dispose and he should accept he is not going to get top dollar, it does not help when their is little assets!

The period you go on to talk about is pre-Super League and the game was run much differently then.

This from a (self-proclaimed) marketing expert is quite ridiculous. Any supporter going away is a loss.



The numbers may be about the same, but the people aren't. Of the bunch of people, all of them committed season ticket holders for a number of seasons, who used to sit in the same patch as I did a Brentford, only about 25% now attend. Yes, some of them have moved to other parts of the country, but many haven't, they've just given up on the club. If we'd retained all of those and you could apply the same percentages across other supporters, we'd have regular gates of 5,000 now (which was always Nic Cartwright's Holy Grail).

Ah says g'fax, these were not "true fans". Total rubbish!
