BU is Aldershot area.
Guildford is the training facility that Quins RU use-It's not a playing ground, there are no stands. A number of the womens World Cup games were played there.
I suspect The Aldershot Military facilities are also being considered as a training base(Quins RU and the British Lions RU have used them in the past). A grass patch with run down changing facilities on the edge of the A3 is not suitable for a top club to train at.
Welcome back TR. I hope his remit includes the ongoing development of the youth programme-Something he never really got involved with previously.
His coaching staff appointments will be interesting-A new fitness coach is in, just needs a No 2 and 3. It would be interesting to know what he "offered" Powell in the new structure.

| Really surprised that Tony has accepted the challenge of taking us forward.
I spoke to him after the Salford game & he was adamant that his interests in Australia would prevent him from taking the Managers job.
So glad that David Hughes & the players have persuaded him to take the job & us onto better times.
I'm actually looking forward to next season now, wherever we're playing. (Hope sense prevails & we stay in London)
"Welcome home Tony"

| No chance of me attempting to try that again Dan. (Even with the team playing as they are now, all next season)
Been there, tried it, failed !!!!
Total respect to the small band of supporters who manage to do this.

| Really pleased to see Tony Rea as coach.
Probably wishful thinking on my part, but given his history wth the club, I would imagine he was given inside information on where we are playing next year and that this was a factor in him accepting the role

| Not to someone from East Hull it wouldn't be
Seriously, it's nowhere near as bad as some are making out....................
BUT it ain't LONDON! Oh and btw, we're meant to be watching rugby, not doing a Kirsty and Phil critique of the local environs.

| I spoke to Tony a few weeks ago and he described himself sitting in front of the Sky Sports Scorecentre 'watching' London Broncos when he was in Australia.
When he explained his business was him talking to senior execs in insurance and financial services I thought he could easily get back into that in future.
So I started to think that he was close to the 'tipping point' of putting his hat in the ring. With other noise nuisances like One Arm and Big Al we've been trying to repeatedly chant his song until he was brainwashed and gave in.
Easy
