Small crowd? Skolars are building for 1,000 next Saturday. We should market the life out of this one, there is a phenomenal amount of interest in the Wolfpack and if the Broncos are serious they should have a leaflet on every seat at the Skolars for this one. A brilliant draw and should be an intriguing day.

A bit of a tester for the club here - Skolars are going all out promoting it, if the Broncos don't bother then the attendance could be embarrassing for the club.

Should be a good game though.

Marketing? London?

A Patrick's night do!
Let's have Guinness at half price and a Pogues tribute band playing in the bar!
Come on London, make it happen!

Brilliant idea but what about pre game irish food with Guiness and Magner Irish Cider, Baileys Irish Cream, Jamiesons Irish Whisky. Surely there is a brewery out there that could sponsor the day and have for one day only all Irish food and drink theme, maybe a bit of celebration irish dancing after the game. That should get the true fans along and maybe get the local Irish community interested in what rugby league is all about All that and the above mentioned evening should make it a great day. Get the posters on the undergrounds and train stations that lead up the Trailfinders and get flyers out etc. Hand out flyers at the game on sunday and ask people to bring friends along. I know that has been done to death almost but a special irish day with a great game should get us bringing along our irish friends and we all know at least one of them.

That very much sounds like a plan citizen!

Skolars have set the bar on this one. Anything less than 1500 would be embarrassing for London.
