| Quote Chris Brown="Chris Brown"I may have missed it but where are we in terms of Ian Lenegan's investment.
Does there come a point where he has to have no financial interest under RFL rules and when is that ?'"
IL pumped 600K of his own cash into the club this year under an existing agreement (which was for the past two years). He should no longer be the major share holder by the end of the season (before anyone says DH is the major shareholder he is Chairman, the two are not mutually inclusive IL still has 60% of the shares).
Unless of course things have changed in the background.

| Here is a thought why don't a few fans bang their heads together like with this banner and do their own little marketing thing in their own time.
Fans shouldn't have to i know but what about a few getting together round strategic points round London
Oxford st, Piccadilly, Victoria, Shepherds bush, Earls court and promoting it.
Some flyer's, some enthusiasm, some team spirit and i agree that the Harlequins name should never have been adopted.

My understanding is that Ian Lenegen still has his 60% shareholding in Quins RL, but under the agreement with the RFL to buy Wigan Warriors he has to "dispose" of his Quins shareholding by end of October 2009.

You've said it yourself, there is no reason why fans should have to do such a thing. The people working at the club are a joke and a complete embarrassment and are slowly killing us.
And its a load of rubbish that we should never have adopted the most recognisable brand in world rugby. We just aren't using it right. The Broncos were more anonymous - people thought they were are a basketball or american football team.

| Quote nnl01="nnl01"There was supposed to be half price tickets for this game for those that came free to Wakefield, if if 100 had cam back it would have been a start but the offer didn't materialise. (A)Pathetic.'" Agreed, and this is something I am angry about. The two friends I brought to the Wakefield match on the pair of free tickets loved the experience and wanted to come to the Celtic & Leeds matches on the discounted ticket offer. They never received any further information from the club despite being told that the club would contact them with information on how to get their discounted tickets for yesterday's game.
I am emailing the club about this and several other fiascos. Any response I get I'll reproduce on here.

Why even suggest something that will clearly never happen?

Union despise us with a passion so why would they help us ?
And like i said fans shouldn't have to market the game but surely a little help wouldn't go a miss.
It does seem slightly hypocritical to slag the complete lack of marketing and at the same time saying sod it im doing nothing.
I try to sell this game to everyone i know down here, i've even paid for tickets so that they didn't have the "i have no money excuse"

Evidence please. I think you'll find you couldn't be more wrong with that comment.

Are you for real? So we can't have a go at the people paid to do a job, and we should be volunteering and it doing it outselves (because they are clueless) for free?

Newsflash- the majority of people in the country don't know or care where sh*t holes like Castleford and St Helens are. The only way the game will grow and raise it's profile is through expansion...'"
Yup.
That should get the support rolling in

Why are you attacking me.
Ok let's critise the board because they are rubbish but we can still help out.
So your idea is sit on your computer and slate the board on RLFans and send them some nice emails too, even go to the meetings and tell them in person how bad they are YET at the same do nothing yourself and then watch the club go under. You can then say well it wasn't my fault im just a fan ?
The board have the biggest responsibility this i accept but the fans/supporters should always do their part. Or is it just easier to critise and do nothing and blame others and [ilaugh[/i at those that might offer an alternate view because again that's the easy thing to do.
I apologise in advance for my seemingly tiny intellect compared to yours 'the mighty lister'

You came on branding anyone that complains a hypocrite
Again, I ask the quesiton, why should the supporters of a multimillion pound business have to do their jobs for them? You think Leeds supporters hand out flyers in the city centre? Or maybe Wigan RL supporters give discountened tickets to Latics fans?
You are clueless.
Oh, and wheres your evidence to support your claim that Union "despise us with a passion"?

So how many chips do you need to balance the other shoulder?
I was at the game yesterday with 3 other Quins RU season ticket holders, and I recognised at least a dozen others, as well as a few people wearing union shirts.
I've been to every home match this season, but perhaps I should stop so you can wallow in your self pity.
I think you'll find that the majority of union supporters have no particular feelings about RL - the same as RL supporters feel about union.
What does alienate people is stupid comments such as that made above.
