It's probably safe to conclude that the London Broncos will not be embarrassing the Super League brand by posting a three-digit home attendance during the last season of licensed mediocrity.

London home attendances 2014
V Salford 1,246
V Warrington 1,377
V Wakefield 1,017
V Castleford 1,036
V Catalans 1,002
V Huddersfield 1,035

Average 1,119

You two and William should get a room and plenty of Kleenex.

Unfortunately you bought it all, whilst fawning over Kevin Sinfield.

So an attendance of exactly five thousand doesn’t appear suspect?

Oh, and all played out on an attendance thread .

Every media outlet appears to be reporting an attendance of exactly 5,000. A figure which also belongs among Salford's 2012 vintage of reporting absolute bollox attendances. Gareth Walker ‏@garethwalker13 - Press box totally full at Salford, stands less so. Miserable night for it but big game for both sides. Good to see Hull KR fans turning up in their customary huge numbers.

What's he got to do with London's complete and utter failure? I think it's fair to say the RL have done more than enough for that joke of a club and the sooner they're gone the better.

And no need to wait for next year either, you could quite easily do a comparison right now by discarding all London's games from last season and this season to see how averages have gone up or down.

2015 will probably see record crowds in the Championship too but of course that'll "only" be because Bradford got relegated...
