| Get the point of the opening post, there are quite a few active players down that neck of the woods, are they being given the support to develop, well that's a question. There are a bunch of blokes in london who have set up a business getting folk to play a form of rugby league and are extremely successful all over london so things can be done.
As to where the professional teams should or need to be is a very different question.
In my view Broncos are best placed in West London somewhere. Why, well look at the "potential" supporters catchment area of the club. let's call everything on the tube map London. So they should draw fans from london berks Hants wilts Surrey Sussex Essex Buckinghamshire Oxfordshire maybe east anglia Herts Kent and beds
Where we are fans from Kent and Essex are pretty hard done to
If we move to Kent or Essex we would lose most fans from berks Hants wilts bucks oxen beds
For away fans from Yorks east or west makes no difference lancs actually not really much difference either for guys from Surrey Sussex Herts it probably makes not a lot of difference.
We all know that to get back into super league means a move, but doing what we have always done with the moves has never helped. Leigh, Widnes both showed how it needs to be done, get a decent stadium and build slowly year on year to get to where you need to be.

| Its common knowledge that Ealing have no ambition to play in the premiership at the moment and I get that what I don't get is that there seems to be no desire to want to play in a nice little ground that people get a good veiw of the game . I know this is from our perspective but the amount of people that I spoke to at the Leeds game last year that were either lapsed broncos fans or northerners that lived down here that would be say casual supporters said they wouldn't return , the simple fact was £20 to watch a match pitch level , the £20 was fine if they could see but all said thankfully they had recorded it as you cant see bugger all pitch level

| Thought you were suggesting that trailfinders wasn't that ground? My misunderstanding mate.
I think at the moment trailfinders is ideal for us. As for the fans you talked to, hey you can never please everyone, Barnet, nice ground good views wrong location, stoop good stadium but to far from the pitch with that walkway. Brentford no parking.
For me watching rugby at pitch level not a problem.

| A partnership with Blackheath would be about the clubs level at the moment. It amazes me how little professional sport there is in the area.
