| What Stand were you in Yed?
We were in the East Stand, on the very expensive padded black seats.
Good points: Brilliant for stalking. Met and chatted with Nobby, Dr Koukash, Rangi and Harrison.
Seats were very close to the pitch.
Beer in glasses.
Food on china plates.
Padded seats.
Large car park, well marked, next to the ground.
Bad points: Car park is behind the sticks: watch out for penalty kicks.
Ticket office is one tiny kiosk in a portacabin, causing people to queue across the car park.
Small bar with only three people serving, VERY slowly.
6 Urinals in the toilet: may be best to go before you leave home
Terracing behind the sticks don't hold many people.
You can't take beer to your seat.

No I didn't go and that actually IMHO is the problem! It's all ver easy to say I am part of the problem but the bigger picture is why?

| Because you have a bee in your bonnet about the club and are under the misguided illusion that you're helping to solve the problem.

| Loved the stadium, breath of fresh air after the soulless stuffy stoop. Parked 2 mins walk from stadium for free, stands are right on top of action, staff super friendly. If youre staying away youre missing out.

| Go on, bore me with a fielding or curry joke, it's still not old enough to be fresh and cutting edge.

| So what sane person who cares deeply about Rugby League, the London Club and it's importance (IMHO) to the growth of the game of a London club in Super League would blindly accept the current situation?

We could only get to our seats via a door through the bar. This door was guarded by security, and no alcohol was allowed through the door.
It's very similar to the Stoop, just a lot smaller. Do you think the bar and toilets in the West Stand could cope with three thousand fans?

| There are means and ways of protesting that don't rob the club, you could turn up outside his office with a band of guys protesting, but no instead you deny the club your money and you deny your players your support, do you hate the players too? They're the real victims in this and they're the ones busting a gut, not that you'd know, you wasn't there.

Don't know but there are toilets dotted everywhere.

| Paddock, why not try a game at The Hive. I was very skeptical, and I didn't like The Stoop much but was used to it, but thoroughly enjoyed my day out with 4 others on the £30 family ticket right on the halfway line. Give it a go.

| Love off, I have organised and driven mini buses up the loving M1 and M6, bought 9 cheap loving train tickets on a group discount and hoped to sell them, been to watch U 15s, 16s, 19s and whatever other age groups Red Hall has invented. I have sponsored players and done all sorts in the past as a volunteer at the club
I don't want a loving medal for that I enjoyed it and I could see a future. Right now I can't see one, and that saddens me. I have seen these players in the age groups coming up but an inevitable fact of a pro sport like rugby is that you don't win anything with kids and I fear for them and the future. Sad to say I have enquired to bookmakers on the odds of the broncos not winning a league game this season!
I have no desire to be a rubber necker at a car crash, and by the way it is you weren't there not you wasn't.
