I dont see the big deal, ample room for a 1500 ish crowd, round the corner from Twickenham. What difference does it make?

Record crowd for Rugby League game in Esher! Expansion works.

Without me sadly, though I suppose my ST will be counted. Wouldn't have gone to The Stoop either.

Quote: SaintsFan " Is everyone certain it was Gus?'"


Tell you what......if this was the first instance of incompetence, then to a man, woman and Child, every poster on here would have 100% directed their ire towards the Landlords...but, it's not......not by a long shot!
Quote: SaintsFan "14-01-11 / Gus Mackay Joins as CEO
20-02-11 / 1,766 witness the seasons opener v Crusaders a record lowest attendance for the club in SL
22-06-11 / Club announce they are investigating a possible re-brand
10-09-11 / 3,456 Watch the loss to St Helens, securing 12th spot ..average 3,124 down 7.5%
01-11-11 / Club announce a rebrand back to the Broncos name
19-01-12 / Season Tickets sent out to 859 people.
24-01-12 / Club dispatches Replica s with the promise you can have the sponsor added later…when they get one
27-01-12 / Club Launch new Website nearly 3 full months after the re-brand
04-02-12 / 4,924 witness the first game as the London Broncos..the team has no shirt sponsor
17-05-12 / After only 2 league wins all season and declining crowds the club announce a review.
09-06-12 / 2,117 watch the team achieve their third win of the season to move off the foot of the table.
17-07-12 / The Club announce a temporary sponsorship arrangement with a local building supplies store.
18-07-12 / The Club, sitting bottom of the league, announce the return of Tony Rea.
18-08-12 / The Sun report the club is moving to Gillingham, The CEO does nothing on Live TV to dispell this rumour
18-08-12 / CEO states that is may be November before the new coach is anounced
21-08-12 / Three days later, Tone Rea is announced as the new head coach.
08-09-12 / 2,525 watch the Broncos win their last game of the season, finishing in 12th position with the lowest ever average for a season…2,808, 11% down on last year and 17% down in total since 2010
08-09-12 / No official announcements are made at the end of seasons awards……the home ground and info on 2013 ST's are still a mystery
19-09-12 / Club announce staying at the stoop for 2013
15-01-13 / Gus announces that London will leave the stoop at the end of 2013...no announcement on ST numbers pointing to a further decline.
09-03-13 / Bottom of the table with an average of 2,193, over 35% less fans and all the CEO can do is text NZ to ask me to stop picking on him....'"


Add to this the 2 days notice given....and we still have no proof that this was an RFL pitch inspection which any sane administrator would have declared.....because the Landlord decides to bounce us.

I've had 2 Missed calls from the UK so far...all I do is type either quantifiable facts or I express that it's MY OPINION.....in this case, My Opinion happens to be FACT. icon_cool.gif


In my honest Opinion, we could have employed co co the ing clown as CEO and we'd have been better run!

Didn't gat an answer when I asked Radford how much he paid Stokes to save his job.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_4438.jpg



As Wire said presume the French had flights booked - guess they would have been consulted as presumably would TR re a postponement?

Just looked on google maps, Skolars play at a better stadium. Was going to bring 3 or 4 people to the Stoop but not sure they will bother now. Club house looks decent though. Don't think we will get a 1000 there. Hopefully 2 points will make up for it. The match should have been postponed.

Any decent pubs in the vicinity?

Real ale at Skolars again Friday icon_biggrin.gif

Clubhouse is fine at Esher. Probably best feature of the ground.

Will go for the clubhouse then. Hope they will have the amount of bar staff they have at the Stoop.

It's been fun.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_44480.jpg



So with Saracens plastic any and every weather iPitch , they couldn't put it there?

Is Gus some secret agent paid by union to kill off league in London, he's earning every penny if he is.

Quote: Paddock Punter "As Wire said presume the French had flights booked - guess they would have been consulted as presumably would TR re a postponement?'"

Neither the French travel plans, nor TR's thoughts on a postponement would have been necessary if someone had negotiated the 1 year deal with Quins properly. 4 days notice that their pitch was off limits is bollox....and there is nothing on the club site that points to this being anything other than them flexing their muscles and you know who touching his toes and thanking them d040.gif d040.gif d040.gif

Quote: gutterfax "yeah...it has nothing to do with a HK game the following week.....

Is the HK fixture (don't know RU terms) the Quins game on Sunday 7th April?

If so, we are scheduled to play at the Stoop on Friday 5th April.

If our game on the 5th is moved, then people may be right about protecting the ground for an important game. In the meantime, all the "facts" are circumstantial and we are not moving to protect the pitch for a game in a couple of weeks time.
