It's been coming for a while this, the Players were told about 2 Months ago they were all free to look for other clubs. Surely the RFL must have known.

Officially RLFAN's most Doe-eyed Happy Clapper.

If you don't bother to go to the game when you live in the locality then you are not really a fan and therefore your views are invalid. It's simple.:icons39ad_files/4821-1859san_c-msnicons.jpg |

| Quote: DaveO "Well precisely. Apparently they have been micro managing clubs to the detriment of marketing and other aspects of the game. Well that is what they said was a big reason why they needed the proposed restructure that has been on the table and 6 clubs objected to.
So if they have been micro-managing how come it has come to this?
It doesn't add up. The RFL will no doubt try and use London's demise as ammunition to justify their changes when in fact it's their slack regulation that has led to first Bradford and now London to this.
As to the viability of a club in London I still don't think this proves it is impossible. A big mistake has been all along IMO calling it London. It's never been London and as such I don't thinks its ever had an identity which was also not helped by its nomadic existence. Its needed roots in one place and stability. It's never had it IMO.
If we want a club in the Capital we need to invest as a sport in a ground that is good enough in an area given some thought. Not plonk it in RU territory or sharing with some unwilling landlord. I think we have for decades tried to do London on the cheap.'"
Agree with this DaveO.. And i too was completely staggered when they choose/decided, to play at the Stoop, what were they thinking. |

That's more or less how the London experiment started, in the 1930's, when Wigan Highfield moved down there. |

The ridiculous thing is that the RFL [iwill [/ilet them back in with a 6 point deduction or whatever, because anything else would mean they'd have to admit they've cocked it up for the last 20 years & they haven't got the nous to compete with the 57 old farts in Twickers.

Why can’t they face it a club in the capital is not going to be credible any time soon? With the dark-side so strong in the bum of the country and the lack of a settled ground, support, and cash it will be a long time before the wherewithal for a viable side to even start to get a decent base there. May be Dr Koukash has jumped too soon, and someone like him could hold the key there, but I doubt it myself. Much better to play to your strengths and try to sort the mess up here first, or even maybe think of shoring up the Cats in France with another side there, who knows? But for me London’s a dead duck!
