JESUS WEPT :WALL: HOW MANY TIMES?????
£20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000.
The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover.

There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them. :BEAT:

Meaningless to whom? I'd suggest the HRK, Leeds, Wigan & Huddersfield would rather have seen London cast adrift at the foot of the table rather than doggedly hanging on and defying the "logic of the pundits" who had us down for 0 wins and an immediate return to the 2nd tier.

As for the rest of your arrogant bullcrap......All teams need to rotate players and Saints are no different. You walked the LLS last year, but ended up as the unshaggable bridesmaid when it came to the big day and you were absolutely owned by an average French outfit in the cup......LIVE and on FTA TV.....You have 2 extremely winnable HOME games coming up and will no doubt win the hubcap again, but it remains to be seen if you field a "perceived" weakened side next month when you return to the capital :SUBMISSION:

Read the post again and you might realise (won’t hold my breath) that I was clearly on about Saints, another simpleton who can’t read. What on Earth is arrogant about any of that post either?

Think Saints underestimated London . London never gave up . They are so enthusiastic , well drilled and have a never say die attitude . They deserved that scalp .

Wardy was very dignified in his post match interview .
The club as a whole seem grounded and credit to them .

Oh dear....sorry Le Bron/Rune or whatever you're logged as but your comment regarding resting players and the probability that you'll get the next 4 points stinks of arrogance.
As for your condescending comment about holding your breath...please feel free to do so.......

Correct, yesterday was the first time it backfired. When you rest some of the best players in the league in their positions, then you risk a poor, disjointed performance. London played well and deserved the win. Top by 4 points and a couple of home games coming up against sides I imagine we will see a backlash against and beat comfortably. Likely this will be a meaningless game come the end of the season.


Saints are the best side in the league this year....but c0ckw0mbles like you do their fantastic supporters no favours.

They were the best side last year. Lets see if they have the b0ll0cks when it matters this time. They should be grateful wane isn't coaching in super league this year. He would probably get this shocking wigan side to old Trafford or
wembley!!

How is me predicting the top team to beat sides sat 9th and 10th arrogant? And how is my comment about resting players arrogant either? I’d say it’s fact that if you rest some of the best players in the league then the chances are, the performance of the team will suffer.
