Actually you've jumped to a massive conclusion of my views, London's problems have been largely to do with a "build it and they will come" mentality.
Poor Management and no Marketing and ofcourse the failure to secure a single, accessible and permanent base/stadia of our own.
However my comment refers to LB's management thinking that some sort of cross-code co-operation is the answer, when at the end of the day, we in RL London have nothing to offer them in return, in business co-operation is a two way thing and we constantly come to the table with nothing.
I hope that clarifies that I'm not just bashing the "punt-monkies", more our managements position.
