I have followed the LONDON CLUB since I was in my teensl even though born in St Helens and still live nearby and went to the first game at Fulham, also Big West Ham Supporter:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_1649.jpg

I wish them the Best, I don't mean that will not happen, just that the attendances will never develop to what they need to be, unless in Super League and someone has tons of money to throw in, and more important to be able to do it right! which both the Skolars & Stags seem to attempt to, but it is another complete level.

Quote: Tre Cool "So what? That's a one off event marketed to 78k CCup final fans coming to London. They normally get about 400!! We've had over 8k for big games in the past on more than one occasion. Pointless comparison.'"


The what is that the London Skolars are a club who are being managed incredibly well off the pitch by the likes of the Kramer's and Paul Thorman (who is actually leaving) and are producing a side on the pitch that is not only competitive but winning games as well.

Compare that with the clowns at Broncos. Less fans than Skolars in three games despite being a couple of leagues above, no idea what the men in charge are doing and Tony Rea's rabble of rubbish.

Why use the Skolars to denigrate the Broncos? Nobody on here is defending Broncos management but, as you are aware, the Broncos are two league levels above. Your comparison is fatuous.

Wrong. Skolars budget for marketing will be tiny in comparison with a side two leagues above them (the Broncos) and the Skolars marketing staff have done more with their tiny budget than the Broncos staff have in the past...5-7 years. Throw in the game at the HAC and it further highlights the incompetence of the Broncos and how the money the fans have spent has been wasted.

Martyn Sadler tells me it is Niel, and he has joined then not seconded, why call him Rugby League Boss then? give Dr Koukash dues he is trying to pull out all stops. Salford does seem a RFL priority!'"


Its not Big Nigel - its Niel - hes more of a coach and will also be trying to promote awareness for the Red Devils in the close season. Its quite a challenge .

Incredibly well? Really? Their crowds are no better than any other club in a league which is packed with younger clubs than them. I'm supportive of the Skolars but I don't see them as a shining example of management and progress.

Their season hasn't finished & they're already punting season tickets for 2014.

If Gus worked for Skolars he'd hold a position commensurate with his abilities.

Like bog cleaner.

I did say that in my comment later! that it was Niel and not Neil, bad journalism by the Manchester Evening News, it did say he was Boss of The Rugby League, so I thought while checking it out that it may have been a spelling error.

The Skolars are the only club in the Championship that has never gone bust, and you can also add a lot of Super League clubs to that. The Skolars are a model on how to run a club.

I don't think anyone denies that! but it is moving on to the next level, and the money needed. More than ever now so many Northern fans are wanting to pull up the draw bridge and want the sport to go back to being The Northern Rugby League, a step backwards, and some still call union, the Minor Sport?
