Quote: Bostwick "He just said. Next season Ealing Trailfinders, which will be much more viable. We cannot stay at The Hive because our deal is too restrictive.

At Ealing we shall be getting income streams from Matchday and Merchandise. Which in line with the fact we failed to make The Middle Eights is vital for The Club to survive.'"
OK thanks. So it's a new beginning. Again.

Doesn't fill me with enthusiasm but we are where we are and none of us seems to have the power to change that.

According to twitters from disgruntled West Londoners, they will start coming again if its Ealing - seeing is believing, as they have us believe West London is where we should be PMSL.

As for Barnaby, whatever pseudonym, hes a bell and will always be so, regardless of what he calls himself. His name is Barnaby, he can cover that how he likes - maybe he is embarrassed - not sure.

PMSL? Pretty much the same number of people attended the first game under DH's sole ownership than have attended all season this year......Griffin Park was the only ground that we GREW attendances at and the leaked season ticket holder data showed that the vast majority of our regular attendees were based in West London. You may have a inion, but the facts and the data point to West London being where most of our fans live.

Not sure what you expect to gain from declaring my name on here, but it's hardly a secret given the amount of correspondence between me, the RFL and the club over the years coupled with the handful of Broncos friends I have on Facebook and even some on Linked In. I don't "hide" my identity and stand by everything that I have said regarding the club. As for being embarrassed of Barnaby as my name? Are you 5yrs old?
Does your need to "out me" stem from your inability to engage in reasoned debate?

Yeah, we'll see. As I've said before the Ealing move is only good news if we're investors, and I suspect we're not.

But then you still have to run the gauntlet like the Warriors on their way back to Coney Island. icon_wink.gif

Copley Close IS awful, even a frightening place, but most of the "Yoot" tend to stay on the estate itself and providing you don't bother them they 'prolly won't bother you(my little/younger brother actually rented a place there for about four years, so I speak from experience).

I just hope theres a possibility to build there (Vallis Way that is, NOT Copley Close, lol)and be a permanent part of the Trailfinders expansion.

In the early days of this thread I believe a link was posted to the regeneration of Copley Close and the surrounding area. Whilst the area was a very unpleasant one a few years back, great strides are being taken to make it more appealing. There was a pub called the Old Bill that was eventually shut down because it's where west London coke dealers frequented en-masse. Cracking headline in the local paper was "The Old Bill shut down The Old Bill"

That said, it is very unlikely that any fans would have to cross the estate to get to the ground, which has its main points of access on the posh streets.

Quote: Molly Malone "Griffin Park was the only ground that we GREW attendances'"


Translated as look at me everyone. I used to hand out door drops then, the attendances went up a fraction.




1. Has a grandiose sense of self-importance (e.g., exaggerates achievements and talents, expects to be recognsed as superior without commensurate achievements).

2. Is preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty, or ideal love.

3. Believes that he or she is “special” and unique and can only be understood by, or should associate with, other special or high-status people (or institutions)

4. Requires excessive admiration.

5. Has a sense of entitlement, i.e., unreasonable expectations of especially favourable treatment or automatic compliance with his or her expectations.

'"

so far off the mark it's funny. Simply put, I was responding to the claim that West London wasn't where we should be by using factual evidence. As usual, now that you've become one of the clique on here, you'd rather cloud the issue by making an unfounded and incorrect attack on the poster of the facts.

Even better, you decry the increase in attendances over 4 years at Griffin Park as "a fraction"......it doesn't change the fact that they did in fact GO UP icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif whereas they went down everywhere else!

I didn't mention the leaflet drops which may or may not have helped, along with the on the road games, making the pay-offs 2 out of 4 seasons and running a free beer campaign in Metro!

So why did the crowds drop at the Stoop which is West London(? SW). Or did they just drop to the pre Bentford levels?

Quote: Exiled down south "So why did the crowds drop at the Stoop which is West London(? SW). Or did they just drop to the pre Bentford levels?'"

The collapsed at the stoop thanks to the sterling job done by Hughes and his top class CEO's Blanchard and MacKay as well as the disastrous appointment of Powell as head coach.
We were god awful in 2004 but at least we still engaged the fans......the club under Hughes is nothing more than a rich mans toy
