3,200 is the lowest ever gate v Wigan in the capital..10,014 the biggest with the average being 5,277 over 19 SL visits to the south.
5,020 has been the average since we returned to the Stoop.....they were the biggest draw at the stoop in 2011 and I expect a crowd of 4,250 or so will roll up.....given they have just missed out on another trip south next month.

That's a given that one . Regardless of the score The Stoop is ALWAYS the best day out in Rugby League (Wembley and Old Trafford included).

See you all on Saturday , two from THE Capital City will be there .

Will the junior compititions be on this week before the match as in previous years. Alway's good to see the youngsters enjoying RL.

Regards , EW

After the SL match:
Valvoline Cup
London Broncos v Wigan Warriors 5pm
Ref M Woodhead TJ T Logan TJ J Jaundrell
At Twickenham Stoop

The messiah returns and Wigan are worried!

Goalposts have been moved, I'll have to rethink. Later ...

Now that the incubus Powell has gone, the message has got to get through to the players, ship up or ship out. Powell was only part of the problem. Attitudes must change or players rosters will.

Yes, I think that some of the senior players might be in for a nasty shock on Friday morning when they meet TR for the first time.

He was over here earlier in the year, so has met the team I would have thought.

To stay within 30 points of the Pies would be an achievement given the shower of sh*t he is starting with as a base product.

Do we know who is available or is that part of the ongoing review?

The bookies generally have London with a +26 start and the total points expectation is about 58. So they are expecting a score akin to London 16 Wigan 42.

I'd like to think there will be an emotional reaction but the data suggests a 95% or greater chance of conceding 30 or more points based on previous performances.

I have bunged £10 on AK to score first and another £10 to score last at 50/1 with William Hill and dodged the 12/1 on us to win.

Long shots.

Changed my mind about the betting, probably just going to enjoy the game, I think it will be a high scoring game yet again. Just hoping for a decent performance by us.

Too little time to make much difference for the new coach and I suspect the issues are rather ingrained now. Beaten but hopefully not embarrassed. Signs of turning a corner would be welcome. A Souths against Roosters result would be the ideal. Chances are bookies are right but I look forward to enjoying the start of a new era.

I think the bookies are probably about right. I think we'll score a few. So Broncos 22 Wigan 44.
