It would be interesting if some of those people could spell out exactly what they would like to see and why, and make a firm case for how their wishes would take the club forward.
I'm aware that we draw support from well beyind Greater London, but personally I'm very much a Londoner and don't think I would have any real affinity with a club based outside Greater London. I'd go occasionally, but would probably rather make trips up north to watch games there. Grounds like Warrington and Wigan are dead easy to get to and you can get there and back for twenty quid on the train if you book far enough in advance.
I see no point in reverting to "London RLFC" and squatting at a Football League ground like QPR. How would that represent progress from the years of trawling around Fulham, Charlton, Brentford etc. that almost resulted in the death of the club in 2005? Having seen Sheffield play at Don Valley Stadium I certainly wouldn't want to go to the Olympic Stadium, or anywhere with a track around the pitch for that matter.
The only real disadvantage with being at The Stoop is that we're right in the heart of union territory. The ground itself is ideal for a club like ours. I think we'd be very fortunate to find somewhere better.
