I think more could be done to a opportunity rather than a problem out of clashes with other sporting events. Get some bigger TV screens and sound in the bar plus some decent guest beers and some folks might spend a couple of hours drinking pre / post game rather than staying home or drinking in a Twickenham pub. Recent examples would be England football, Lions, T20.

Interested bar staff perhaps

you seem to be forgetting that the main sponsor, st. mary's already has all of this. if you're going to target a university, surely this is the one. at least st.mary's has a rugby league club, something that brunel hasn't had for sometime.

and, the two universities have a huge rivalry, so im not too sure that the st.mary's management who are pumping x thousand pounds a year into the club will be too enamoured with the fraternisation of the enemy

There are poster up at St Mary's already offering reduced rates to watch Quins.

every time i have been down to quins this year, i have seen a handful of both current and ex simmies down there. you never know with students though, always seem to have something, (or someone) better to do....

Brunel RLFC re-started a couple of years ago.

good. im pleased about that. when we played each other there were some good games between the two of us. is good to have both uni's in south west london playing again. hopefully kingston can get a side going too.

If they had the games on the same day, one after another, perfect but unfortunately they've all been on the exact same time...

I was in the club yesterday discussing the measures that have been posted on here re. advertising the club and games. These have been taken away to be looked at. In the meantime polar panther would you like to come and collect a poster from the volunteer table for the cafe you mentioned and ask them to display it. Anyone who wants a poster for their workplace, local pub or anywhere else can also collect form the table. This covers two of the inputs immediately. Bear with the club, there is an awful lot going on behind the scenes which they are not able to openly discuss at the moment. Have faith in them. Everything will be evaluated and lessons learnt. On another issue of how to spead the name of Quins RL. Petra and I visited a very friendly pub called 'The Bloomsbury' in Staines Road, Twickers, just been refurbished and the landlady has agreed to show our games against Wigan and Catalan on SKY and will also supply free nibbles to anyone wearing their Quins tops. The tops are to encourage a game type atmosphere which hopefully will rub off on the locals and get them interested. If enough fans go along it could become a regular meeting place to watch games on a friday / saturday evening. Everyone has asked the club to get in the faces of the locals - this is a way we can all help to do it whilst enjoying the challenge.
