| The bigger own goal is arguably any attempt to attract newcomers to experience Quins RL as it is at the moment.

Would that read more accurately?

| Whinge whinge. I read the website or email news letter, brought 2 mates, went to the ticket office, got 2 free tickets, sneaked them into the good block. No problem, no complaints.....apart from the bl**dy team who showed the 2 newbies how to lose the first half 30-0! Now thats something to moan about!!

Aye that's pretty much how it ran for me. You didn't need to go to the ticket office btw, you could walk through turnstile 11. Obviously the club didn't put this in size 24 font for you and you missed it, and it cost you an extra 30 seconds or so, so they should be lambasted.

Im really not moaning but does anyone else feel we could maybe target the actual match a bit in the build up? Sort of building peoples excitement about the thing they pay to watch? It seems sometimes that theres lots of fairly poor but well intentioned street dancing, some music, the cheerleaders and next thing you know its kick off time? And while Im not moaning can that MC eejit that replaced Warren please disappear before next year?

Absolutley not - I resigned 2 seasons ago due to serious ill health issues. But just to remind you when I was doing things for the club the operative word was volunteer. I have no axe to grind with anyone. Unlike you I am not trying to hit below the belt with personal snide remarks, I just want to get the message across that the club really need to read what some fans think, agreed not all of them think the same way, but if it is only a minority at the moment the message still needs to be addressed. Maybe you should pass things on to the chairman when you speak to him. Will you once again have another personal verbal go at me under your other forum name like you did last time when I didn't agree with you. This is a forum, we are all allowed an opinion and we don't all have to be of the same opinion. My thoughts are the club is at a standstill, I can't see it moving forward and sadly I can't see next year being any different. Your views may well be the complete opposite of mine and I respect that, I don't have a problem with your views you are perfectly entitled to them.

| Quote: Briali1 "PP you get a little too defensive when anyone says anything against the club. We are not all as tolerant as you and when you see something isn't working then the club should be made aware and we all know they look on here. Don't say phone the club because most of the time no-one answers the phone. Constructive critisism won't do them any harm. They handled the situation badly and should be made aware that a number of fans were complaining. Myself I couldn't care less, at this moment in time I have no interest in the club because of how badly everything is handled. Last minute promos which don't reach everyone. Last minute game changes when you have booked time from work to go and got your train tickets. Last minute changes when you are on holiday and planned to be back for the game then miss it because it is Friday, especially the last game of the season. The list is endless, like a number of fans we will wait and see how things move during the off season before renewing season tickets. After a decdade and a half of watching the game the last two seasons have killed the enthusiasm.'"
Not defensive all the time - I merely pointed out that the offer did not involve phoning the club or using a link but turning up on the day. I agreed that the offer could probbably have been made earlier - I still got 9 to come. Being pedantic I don't think the change ofthe Wire game can be construed as last minute - it was announced about 5 weeks beforehand slightly different from the Welsh muppets giving a weeks notice which is criminal and the club should have stood up to.
I am sure that "the club" does not go out of it's way to pi55 everybody off but 95% of everything on this forum is negative or having a go at something or other. As an example I write this about 14 hours after the news on the club web site that BJB has made the Team of the Month but as yet no thread to this bit of good news - I am about to start one and all those who wish to respond positively can join in.

| I agree PP the club cannot be held responsible for the last game of the season. Guess I am a bit sore at missing the last game because holidays are booked months ahead when you have your own business or do contract work and means the season finished on Saturday for us. Well done on getting the nine people. Don't take this the wrong way but did they enjoy themselves enough to come back when they have to pay. It's an honest question with no hidden agenda just wondering whether or not the club succeeded in their aims.

and it costs very little to do!!!!!
Whilst I agree with PP that all the threads here are doom and gloom, I would point out that pretty much everything connected with the club at the moment can hardly be described as brilliant. BJB is to be applauded for making the team of the month and let's hope that webb gets another season at Leeds and BJB stays in London. Clubb, like him or not has signed for 4 years, so that goes in the positive news section too. Alas, the negative column is very very very long, topped by the reports that DH wants to lessen his financial exposure at the club.......followed closely by the sheepish way in which the club let the cottage burners mess with the fixture. On that point, I was told by the RFL at the time that the club had allowed SKY to mess with the French fixture last year......it would seem we are dothing our cap to all and sundry at the moment....well, except the fans
