After nearly 30 years since you started as fulham at craven cottage the game in london as gone from strengh to strengh. Its a shame the support hasn t grown as well. As a Hull fc fan whos watched us at every ground you ve played at, I must be like other fans up in the north who now we play catlans decide which match to attend. This obvously affects your attenance greatly. The sloop is to far out its a pity you don t play at fulham or qpr were the areas got a lot of aussies and kiwis living . Good luck for the season as your full of injuries at the moment like we were last season

Stulea

As a long time Bronco's/London supporter its nice to get some positive comment from a Northern based fan
the choice to make the journey down to London is an expensive one even if its there and back in a day, and i can understand folk making the choice of where they want to go and can afford to go to, thats why we have such a poor away support, not helped by a lot of games up north being on a Fri night
as for the Stoop being our home, its a good stadium, it would be even better if the club had made the decision to open the other stand, rather than the West stand but thats an ongoing discussion within our own fans. Its position, actually I dont think its too bad, its only 10 mins from M25 so traffic permitting easy enough to get to, and having been one of those that made the treck to Charlton when we were there trust me its a heck of a lot better to get to than there

Personally I reckon we need to get London back in to the name of the club

Good luck with the rest of yr season and think we have you lot on easter Monday, hope you bring a fair few fans down but the hope the squad dont travel well and we put some points past you

Get rid of the Harlequins nonsense
Get London back in the name
Get rid of the fifth rate players and coach
Bring in a big name to get the crowds in and some players who are actually vaguely entertaining to watch

I'm pretty comfortable with all of that apart from your unnecessary denigration of the playing staff. So, let's go for it icon_exclaim.gif

I presume you've just won the Lottery rupe?

No, but I would pledge a grand to a new London Super League franchise with the caveat that it had nothing to do with David Hughes/Harlequins RU

Seriously what do you think one thousand pound a season will pay for?-Im genuinely not taking the mickey

I will give you a clue-Hughsey paid out £1.6 million last season

GF - I think we have found someone to fund your posters

....yep. Better use Rupe1's £1,000 to employ someone to hold Mr Hughes's had when he crosses the road then because without him the club would disappear. Oh, sorry, there I go again telling the club how to spend their (Mr Hughes) money...my bad.

On this subject.....just how do you lose over 30k a week (or just under 60k a week during the season)? Still, I am sure this is none of my business as well, but I was just curious.

Quote: wire-quin "A little crude I suspect'"

No...probably about right. ..anyway, back to the question in hand.

60k a week during the season.......that is 12k a day leaking out of the club and yet when I post suggesting (shouting/screaming/demanding...call it what you want) that crowds are the answer and the lack of any tangible activity to get people in is shocking, I get told to shut up.

What I will admit is I was wrong about rupe1's £1,000 to employ someone to keep DH safe.....at the rate of loss above we couldn't even afford a full hour icon_rolleyes.gif

No they don't. Take that chip off your shoulder and remove your head from where it's stuck and realise that people are fed up with you repeating yourself and slagging off the club. You don't have to repeat yourself. We got it. No-one told you to shut up the first few times you came up with marketing suggestions and drew up your plan. It's only been recently really hasn't it? That's the issue for some. Can you not see that's the message. You're fücking so many people off here and then you go and do a snide and slag us off on VT. Your own team!! Like I said before. Rupe does that.

I have agreed...I was OTT in recent weeks and there is no excuse for it. The VT post I do not apologise for though....and I won't either. The Crowd at the game on Saturday...with free tickets to all and sundry, was a disgrace. No amount of finger pointing at me and booing is going to make it any different.....
You use the words snide and slag off......maybe you're right, but all people like you and a cetain other cretin on this forum (who has stepped over the line IMO) can do is continue to have a go at me. Carry on....I am sure it will boost attendances, fix purdos crook shoulder and help DH to find another £1,600,000 for this season......but as others have said to you.....just avoid my posts or ignore them. Really, the amount of finger pointing on here would seem to indicate either the onset of dementia or failure to grasp the point of having a public forum icon_rolleyes.gif

I started posting today with a contrite feeling about my behaviour over the last few weeks but yet again, a few choice words from a few choice posters on here and the bloods boiling again!

so.....
HKR have an average of 3,776 and Saints 4,725 for visits to London......anyone got any ideas how to make sure we get more than this to these games? I obviously do, but you already know that icon_cool.gif
