As a Quins regular with a South African background I was quite surprised myself with the number of Sharks/Boks supporters at the Hull game. Just a shame we threw the game away. Must admit I thought I'd see many more Kiwi's at the Stoop than I did!

Buying my ticket, there was a couple of Shark's fans in front of me who were asked to produce their Twickenham tickets |

Personally I'm less convinced now than I was five years ago, purely for that reason. But the only better option for "London RL" would be to have "our own ground" in which we are the sole ball sports club and have a secure favourable lease of some sort. Going back to squatting at football grounds or utilising track & field grounds is not the answer. The Stoop itself is ideal for Superleague rugby, but it might be better for us if it was in a different part of London. |

[sizeIf Harlequins RL had employed me in 2006 as marketing manager then we would be averaging 6,000 fans a game and that's a FACT
....I know it seems like it's all for nothing, but to walk away AGAIN would be pointless until they've spent some money at least trying to get fans. |

Clearly it isn't a fact as we know it didn't happen. It could, however, be a fact the GF's CV was thrown in the bin  |

and well done quins on a good youth system and bringing through some really good young players now and having less overseas players then most so well done'"
May I suggest you read Michael O'Hare's excellent "Mythbusters" article in the May edition of Rugby League World. He outlines the issues of RL in the Capital and as a nation sport far better than any rant on a RLFANS thread could. |

Fair enough....but whilst I've been talking b0ll0x the club have really made great strides towards self sufficiency through increased attendances, whilst my career has floundered....oh, hang on...it's the other way around |
