Richard Branson was involved in London at one point if I remember correctly and it didn't go well

It did in the short term, they got crowds nearing 10,000, exposure, they did well relatively on the field, but that's just it, interest wasn't maintained and it fizzled. When Fulham first started they got crowds of 18,000, but it was a novelty factor, why can't we get clubs properly up and running apart from in Yorkshire, Lancs & Cumbria?!! When Football & Union were 'invented' for want of a better word, they didn't have the geographical spread and number of clubs they have now? They have grown their games nationally, we haven't, this World Cup could be the springboard for something, but we've probably said that before numerous times.....

Not sure, i had it in my head they got nearly 18 when they played Wigan? You may well be right though.....

Having done a quick Wiki check, you are indeed correct Sir, although at the top it says Leeds, but then scroll down to the fixtures and it was just over 15 against us.
