Challenge Cup Final : Thu Jul 30, 2009 1:34 pm  

I know we're not in it, but do the club market the club at Wem ber ley? Massive RL event, in London, on national terrestrial tv. Can we get the new flag on display for the cameras? Do we advertise in the programme around the ground?

Because we don't need to (according to The Management)
Seriously, of the 80k plus who roll up to Wembley for the CC Final, there has to be a minimum of 8,000 London/SE residents and maybe we should target them, but I doubt we could afford to (on a viable basis)

Not really true. The match programmes (and for internationals in London) always carry a page on RL in London and an advert for Broncos/Quins.

In addition the club have also handed out flyers before major games in london.

Having a presence would certainly be sensible? A stall? The mascots outside the ground? The flag inside the ground for the tv cameras?

My CC programmes haven't got them? Is there a special print run for Cockneys? The Anzac test at Loftus hole a few years back carried a freebie ad for us, but as far as I know, that's it.

Major games.....what major games? The CC is the only Major game in the Capital Unless you are referring to leafletting Union games across the road, I have no idea what Major games of League you are on about.

How hard is it to send a few people on the clubs payroll to the game with a stall and some leaflets? or in a couple of horsey outfits (Balding would like them!).
