| Quote: Wilderspool memories "Thank you for quoting me incorrectly. I did not say "londoners"(as in the whole of london) loathe league with a passion,I was making reference to the twickenham locals. Football and union fans who expressed a deep rooted dislike of RL,to myself,in person. Others as I have said earlier when told we were there for the harlequins V warrington match asked questions about quins RU. So they had no idea quins had a RL team,and were quite surprised when told that quins have a league side at the stoop too.'"
Your own words"Finally,if your club is doing as well as you claim across the board,why can't you attract larger crowds? One reason maybe is that you have always played in a union stronghold(london)where league is viewed as the enemy."[/i
So we're "loathed with a passion" only in Twickenham, but merely "viewed as the enemy" London-wide? I wouldn't have said there was a world of difference there. Either way I don't believe it's true. Lack of interest and publicity, or more pertinently the range of alternatives on offer, is the main problem but I've never felt anyone either in London as a whole or specifically just Twickenham was actively wishing us to fail.

| Re: 'travelling' fans...
It will be very interesting to see if the black and white side of K-upon-H get a bigger away folowing this term .
A quick look at the league fixture list should give you an idea of the dates when you should screw your shed doors shut and bring your push bikes in the house . Weld the gates shut on your driveway for the weekend , and grease the drainpipes on your house (especially if you got real slate , or lead on your roof )
You still here Pete ?

| Could you remind us what the Quins v Wire score was at the Stoop last year.
If it wasnt for Moran Warrington would have gone bust-They still owe the council now.

| Quins support is shocking, we all know that so no point from hiding from it but (aimed at my fellow wire) why should we slate them for it, even at 30 they are still a young club.
If we want to make this a game that attracts thousands to every game and millions on tv we NEED Quins to be a success.
All these teams popping up in London, all these young aspiring lads, who do they support when they get the bug ? who do they play for ? where is the pro club to nurture their talent ?
Quins RL's only real problem is exposure and the fact that London is a melting pot of cultures who simply don't play/understand rugby therefore have no interest. It's a slow burner that needs time patience and a nice sugar daddy with money to burn.
[sizepossibly a few football clubs winding up too.[/size
