| Well if Quins management are part of the problem and don't expect many to travel maybe I will take them up on that for the future and cancel my "promise" to gutterfax to go on the wakey express.
So much for thinking the future looks bright and considering joining the away crew, but in the present economic climate and how supporters are viewed what is the point? I might as well stay at home.
However it is the players who suffer and deserve support not the idiots who call themselves administrators.

| Quote: Paddock Punter "How about some sort of protest when the Sky cameras are there for the Rhinos game. We could all go and sit in the Lexus leaving a pretty empty East Stand and barrack underneath the commentary position!'"
Think this is a good idea! At least it would make our feelings known.

| Reading through this, it's all Sky TBH. Like here in Oz, TV determines when the fixtures will be played.
Maybe SKY are too naïve to realise that Quins fans like to go to France and many would have booked up well in advance.
As Gutterfax has said, it's more about trying to stop this happening again, unfortunately for some. As suggested, SKY/Superleague should just inform people of whom they're playing and on what weekend. Then specify the exact date a few weeks out!!!
I really feel for the poor bastårds that have been turned over on this one. It's a lot of dosh.

| Quite an interesting idea to 'move' into the Lexcus at the Leeds game but regret to say & knowing our fans the actual numbers will not be that many - guess not more than 150 to 250.
However, it might help if the visiting Leeds supporters also squatted in the Lexcus - afterall it could be them next time.
Fans who decamp into the Lexcus need to do so at the last minute and so perhaps ensuring that the QRL 'stewards' are caught short i.e. with their pants down.
A few large 'protest' banners would also help. Finally think that post match Stevo & his side kick should be prevented from entering the main bar on the grounds of 'personal safety'........ .

Yes what a good idea it would be to move into a stand where their camears don't cover
Any more bright ideas?

| Whilst I am as, if not more, annoyed than anyone one about the fixture switch, I would suggest that any attempt to occupy the Lexus would only alienate the club even more.
As I have mentioned, the North Stand is open for this game and therefore, would make a better venue for those who wished to protest.
The last thing the club, or in fact the supporters of the club want is for people to be ejected/banned from the Stoop.
As for banners......I suspect that if there was a 50ft one slagging off SKY, then it might well be 3ft, as it won't get any air-time from....er.....the very people it is slagging off.

As it's highly unlikely QRL supporters could or would ever engage in an organised protest against the club or SKY, even if one were required or deemed productive can I suggest instead that you alter the wording on your "The end of the world is nigh" boards normally worn at speakers corner to whatever message you want to reflect your own brand of lunacy.
Again you won't get noticed on SKY as in general turkeys don't vote for Christmas........it will however give the rest of us something to laugh about in these bleak times.

Do Quins get any money from the travelling fans? No, so why should they care?
Do Sky get any money from travelling fans? No, so why should they care?
I reckon the only group interested would be Perpignan/Catalans and then would they rock the boat over 1000 travelling fans (£20k) when they risk the big money from Sky?

Sky's contract probably gives them authority to have anything they deem "offensive" (to themselves) to be removed.

| Hold up, where has the last few posts gone?
If "someone" know who is to blame for this fiasco they should be named and shamed regardless of who it is, many of our fans have either lost a large amount of money or will miss the game, the deserve the truth.

I've seen them, I can't really say anything but don't worry, you haven't missed out on anything.

No, you have been told what happened and who was responsible, those who are out of pocket deserve to know who to point the finger at.
