Rise like Lions after slumber
In unvanquishable number--
Shake your chains to earth like dew
Which in sleep had fallen on you--
Ye are many -- they are few.'

Surely not?
Or are the Pastels a bit strapped for cash and want a tenant?

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:

Should never have left there....but Gus needed a scapegoat to remain employed. Surely the real rumour would be Trailfinders playing some games there should they get up......with us maybe as an occasional sweetener (Wigan/Leeds/Saints).
David Hughes has never admitted he was wrong in any decision making process, so us returning to the Stoop will not happen with him at the helm!

1. Yes.....a Rugby Stadium built for Rugby......not may of those about!
2. Have to say, I've been to 2 games at the wedding venue and I believe it's fantastic if we return to the 2nd tier.......or lower. Quins for big games would be good......but I'd rather shoe-horn 4 into Ealing than have them rattle around TW2

As far as I am aware it was a pretty hostile relationship over the last 3 years there..........neither the owner of the CEO's made a good impression on our hosts. We can only dream what would have been id IL hadn't bought Wigan, but I'd say it's a safe bet we'd still be at the Stoop and we'd have a 5k average gate if not more.
