funniest thing I've read on here.......EVER!

Yawn!!!!!

So dog genuine question, if you were a wire fan would the fact this weekends game is available to watch on sky effect your decision on travelling to see them play? 350 miles round trip plus or watch it on tv? Simple fact if it was not on sky more would travel. Why is that such a subject of delight?

3 of us heading down and staying over. Any decent pubs nearby? Thanks in advance

Not that many pubs close by mate, Ealing itself has a few and town is pretty decent but it's then a bus rude or 20 min walk to the ground
Hope we make yr lot work for the result on sat.

In fact Lowes had been sacked and Tony Smith was in charge, but it was only his second or third game. He was quoted afterwards as saying something like ' Sometimes you have to reach rock bottom before you can improve'. I was at the match and Wire were poor that day but it was also one of those rare games where simply everything worked for London, the bounce of some of the kicks, some eight or nine man passing movements, in most games half don't come off, but on the day they all did. That season we finished 10th but no complaints from Wire fans as we won the Challenge Cup for first time in 35 years.

20 minutes? Bloody hell you're fitter than me! I'd probably take 20 mins after the game DOWNHILL to Ealing!

Happy days!

It would still be a problem even if it was not on Sky. Only 3 options for attending are go on club coach,drive down if you have that option or stay over, a fair few would of used the train, get there and back quicker but that is not an option as last train back is 20.31.

3,205.....that's how many saw that fat bloke try to set fire to his shirt...attendance was 3,206 but he wasn't watching himself. Clubb absolutely hammered King in a one on one tackle and Curtis scored under the stiks from the loose ball.......Melling ran the length of the park to celebrate his try with Clubb....so, no, I take no delight in the clubs demise but I doubt that it being a TV game will bother those fans who would have traveled......we're a pub side now and we'll attract pub sized gates regardless of who we play....

I think in real terms we were a pub side then with a few decent players and nice ground to play on. Coaching structure was poor, training facilities; a field just off the A3, back room staffing, well ........
We've now just found our level in terms of ground, players etc

Welcome to our world. As London away supporters we have these travel issues every other week throughout the season.
There have been too many occasions when playing times, venues or even the day of the game have been changed for us, at very short notice.
The thought of the powers that be is that our numbers are few, so we do not matter.
For me. If I want to attend I will find a way.

The club have an opportunity for a very special night. Wire have little to play for (they will surely be safe). We have nothing to lose, if we get beat let's go down all guns blazing. You never know, they have had a fortnight off and maybe, just maybe, we can catch them cold in what for them is a strange environment.

Can I have a case of what you're on.....lol!!

Channing back in the nineteen. No Rocky. Gidley back for Wire.
