http://www.sportinglife.com/rugby-leagu ... ave-london Quote, Uncertainty also surrounds the club's future off the pitch, with their tenancy at the Twickenham Stoop ending this year amid speculation of a move to Barnet. "It is frustrating because no one knows what is going on," Clubb added. "The club's telling us nothing, Tony is telling us nothing. "We haven't got a ground yet, we are losing 12 players and it's pretty daunting. We need it out in the open." Come on man stick it out, Bronco's are my second favourite team. They beat the seagulls.

The areas which need to be considered are the finances of the club, the performance on the field, your youth performance and your facilities."
so thats whats wrong with the game at the moment.

Re: London bricking it : Wed Jul 17, 2013 7:43 pm  

You show me financial robustness. I raise you Bradford, Wakefield and Salford.

Don't hide behind subjective nonsense and then don't even refer to it when SL that have flouted these criteria get given a licence. What is fair about that?

P&R seems pretty fair and cut and dried to me.

Is it Londons last chance to survive getting to Wembley this year?

The thing is though even if they were judges on those criteria rather than the league table they would still not be in the 12. I mean its been well documented how they are pretty much not financially viable and are losing money hand over fist, their performances on the pitch are and have been poor, I cant say one way or another about their youth policy because I dont really know but facilities? What facilities?

Re: London bricking it : Wed Jul 17, 2013 9:13 pm  

Erm - the facilities they're having to move away from next year. Everything about today's statement is contradictory and smacks of sheer panic. Will fat Nigel yield? Will Sky put their size nines in? It's going to end in fiasco - I can feel it.

You really couldn't write it could you?

That word fair smacks of hypocracy as fair to me means 'no favours' so London should be relegated if they finish in the bottom 2 next year and why not? How long will SL and the RFL use this 'we have to have a team in London cos its London' excuse? I think its good to have a team in London but they should be on a level playing field with the rest and no special favours, thing is if London has been a great success and loads of players are coming into the game and fans with lots watching on Sky, where are they???
