Quins were warned by the RFL earlier in the season that they needed to increase their attendance, I think that the figures have actually dropped since then due to their poor form, I fail to see the difference between a warning re crowds, or re Stadium, both equate to 1 fail on the Franchise criteria, unless the goalposts have been moved again. I can see the RFL dusting off the phrase "Special Case" again..............

W.S.H.I.T (Wildcats Supporters Hate IT !!)

Regarding putting Trinity on the back of my shirt Snowie defeats the object, I have not and will not buy a shirt with a cartoon cat on end of.....it's almost as bad as when the rumour was going round numerous years ago that we were going to be sponsored by Coca Cola and I can remember someone sewing a Coca Cola towel on front of their home shirt !!!

Lets burn an effigy of the cartoon cat in the car park at BV before next seasons first home game and someone could have a large needle and trip up as they are walking past the players tunnel, fall over holding the needle and accidentally burst that monstrosity that is the blow up cat.

Oh the list is endless why does the season have to stop now just as W.S.H.I.T is gaining momentum.

Note to the forum administrator this is tongue in cheek and i am not chsmpioning Criminal damage in anyway !!!!

Quote: seal "seems harsh but i hope harlequins do go. RFL pump wasted money into a club that gets no interest or attendence from anyone down there. also take into account their league position. pointless team.

that being said...... they do seem to be producing some good youngsters recently which will probably go to union without a SL club. still think its bye bye time'"


Can you provide evidence that the RFL have pumped money into London RL? How much and when? Where are the articles? Or is this just another regurgitated myth that's not actually true? I think the best you could say is that the RFL have given them a reprieve and let them retain their SL place after they have gone bust before.

I can't help but notice the last time London were in difficulty and the northern clubs tried to cannibalise them their chairmen subsequently did a u-turn and very quickly came round to the idea of a London team in SL. Just speculation on my part, but I'm guessing that they were warned SKY would slash the TV contract with no London in SL. Food for thought, what if Sky did cut the TV contract and we had to reduce Superleague to 12 or 10 teams? Wouldn't that result in more heartland clubs losing their top flight places than they are now anyway?

As much as it's tempting to want to be selfish and think of it as a possible get-out-of-jail card for Trinity, I'm with you Snowie. We need the presence in London to ensure sponsorship, Sky money and the like. Expansion of the game, while sometimes approached in a heavy-handed way that doesn't quite works, stops rugby league becoming the parochial Northern sport that would kill the game off on a national level and having a London team is the foundation of that...

So being based in London is the green light that it does not matter what you do on the field.May as well bringl in clubs from Scotland and Ireland and throw long established clubs out.What a eay to run the sport.
