Yawn. If you honestly believe that both those crowds were accurate then you are very naive.
Let me see:
The club couldn't even decide on what the crowd was against Huddersfield but it looks like it was 1,973 and I would certainly agree. Huddersfield bought at least 500 supporters, possibly up to 750. THat means there were about 1200 home supporters on Saturday. Are you trying to tell me there were DOUBLE the number of home supportrs in attendance yesterday?

Indeed. They are obsessed with it.

| We can only go on what the club says. i thought there was good crowd in last night plus season tickets who weren't there. (two of which are in my party of four).
So I will refer the honourable gentleman to my previous answer.

And I refer you to my judgement that you are naive if you believe the figures the club have published.
So, if you believe the club, you actually believe there were DOUBLE the number of home supporters last night compared to the Huddersfield match?

| I believe there were 3 hundred more than were at the Hudds game.
It is not in the clubs interest to pay tax on fans who are not there. it is you who are naive.

| If the crowd of last night is to be believed (and, given the programme listed the Huddersfield gate as 2,500 - who knows?), then I am pleasantly surprised.

| I'm a firm believer that QRL have to go back to the London Broncos name (or modernize it) and get a decent marketing team on board.
Personally I would move to QPR. Yeah the leg room isn't ideal but you can market it easy as a Family Day.
Take an average family of 4 (Mother, Father, Son, Daughter). The marketing is easy. The Father & Son spend the day at the Rugby whilst the Ladies work up a sweat in the Westfield Centre.
Just a idea (prepares to have his idea ripped up) but the majority of Londoners & Southerners think Harlequins are an RU team if the Broncos marketed themsleves correctly then they would know that Broncos would be an RL team

Haven’t we moved enough times already? This is our last chance, fook this up and we're history.

The majority are right then. Harlequins is the name of a rugby union club that plays at the Stoop.
It is also the name of a rugby league club that plays at the Stoop.
Quite enjoyed coming along for a Thursday evening. But I work by Waterloo so it was a doddle to get there by train.
Took me the standard two hours to get home though, which was less fun that time of night.
(I really don't see incidentally how the answer to the problems of never sticking to a thing - kick offs, name, location - is to move them all again.)

No, No, No, No! For God's sake, we can't move AGAIN. We need to play in one place, in one venue for long enough to put down proper roots in a community.

Alright then London Quins RL. Stay at the Stoop and build from there. There we have a different identity and can market without being directly linked to the "Kick & Clap" mob.

There were plenty of them at The Stoop last weekend - they're a growing club and will finish top four this year, maybe win the cup at Wembley. This is what we should be aiming for.

There was easily 2500 there. Pleasantly surprised, quite a few people turned up in suits too, guess mid-week games arent so bad after all.
PS. If we moved to White City id shoot myself.

Interestingly a lot of people who are "sports" fans I have spoken to recently have no idea that there are 2 types of Rugby - they just think there is Rugby!

You are absolutely correct there PP.
People who are not interested in Rugby [i dont read about it or watch it[/i hence the difficulty in attracting soccer fans to RL. Their opinions on 'Rugby' were set by watching a union game on tv at some stage and now dont take any notice when any form or Rugby is on - they just change channels. All Rugby is blanked out.

To true, we need more than a few CC games and an international on the BBC.
