I give up.

Wanted Marketing manager Apply Quins Rl. Salary 10% of every extra 1000 season tickets sold. 15% of tickets sold to non season ticket holders through the season(away tickets sold dont count)Bet someone out there would put the effort in then.
Employ a matchday marketing manager on sale returns(executive boxes etc) Might just start see the crowds We need to
A/ carry on competing at the right end of the table
B/ ensure the franchise system needs Us in superleague

i agree
Arsenal are a big name too in London a bigger name than Quins but they wouldn't trade off that name either.
But Arsenal are a football team?
Well Quins are a Union team what's the difference ?

If i was an Spurs football supporter i wouldn't support an Arsenal RUGBY team because of the name. So there you go alienate Saracens London irish support straight away.
London Broncos were always the way forward if people thought that was a basketball team that was just down to the marketing but hey the crowds are down under the quins name so big success there then

Bloody hell.

at your eloquent smug condescending best again hey lister.
and celtic lost again, oh and day turned to night again yesterday

Nah, got better things to do than reply to complete rubbish.

Bye.

But you have been saying Union hate League, so the name doesnt matter, by your assesment of their hatred Quins RL have alienated them just by existing.

Make your mind up either union fans will come and watch rugby league but under a name not associated with a rival union team or union hate league.

Ding ding ding. We have a winner.

im on about the people who run the game, the bigwigs so to speak

You were at first bleating about Union not helping us out. I would think that Mark Evans is a fairly big wheel in the Union game, you know, running Harlequins RU? Did he allow us to use the brand, stadium etc after our club was on the verge of collapse because he hates us?

yet not a mention in the RU programme of the upcoming league game. more self interest than a helping hand i think.

So he hates us, yet is doing it for self interest?

Please, explain the logic behind this move in the first place. Why has Mark Evans allowed us to play at The Stoop, perhaps even devalue the brand, and share the resources?

Or has he taken the club and hoped to drive it into the ground to banish professional RL from London forever?

so use of the name/stadium/resources has improved the club with these MASSIVE crowds you get every other week?

You have failed to answer any of the 3 questions.

if i was Mark Evans i'd give an answer

That wouldn't be you would it knowall

Why is it that the just the club shouldn't allow things to drift on? Maybe, just maybe we as supporters also have a vested interest in Quins RL future.

Or are we just all happy to tap our keyboards and hope that someone will galvinise suporter apathy into action??

You managed to step into his shoes and say that those in charge of running Rugby Union hate Rugby League, so whats stopping you now?

The fact that you have no idea what you are talking about, perhaps?

Seconded

There are some who believe Quins RL means quins rugby lessons delivered by the union section and not rugby league. This in term leads to "poor" marketing within the community since "everybody knows at RU". I remember my first trip to Catalans and they (Cats) marketed our team as London Harlequins. Maybe there is a lot in a name which for some reason or another is lost in translation and works against us

yet you are a professor of rugby?

and im sure Bernard Lapasset wouldn't shed a tear if we disappeared into obscurity

Anyway i've been drawn into a slanging match so i'll withdraw myself from it now

I guess it could be a worry to find an investor to buy 60% of a club, but with such a low turnover and huge losses I guess it is hardly worth a bean

I'm told it's costing him around 600k a year for the privilage. That around £1650 per day.
