Opportunity here.....
Advertise in TNT now, that any person who buys 4 tickets for 5 different SL games this season will get a free ticket to the game. £300 in revenue and 20 extra bums on seats during the season. 1,000 people do it (and there were at least 4,000 antipodeans there yesterday) and we generate £300,000 in revenue for a no risk cost of £20k......No brainer if you ask me.

No Brainer! - it is not us who sell the tickets but the RFL and so I can hardly see them giving away free tickets (to what should be a sellout) to people buying tickets to Quins games.

No....you misunderstood.
We buy the tickets as part of the promotion. Worst case scenario is we just have to re-sell them to recoup the money. As you say, it will be a sell out so if we did have £20,000 worth of tickets, we'd have no problem shifting them.
If the campaign required registration and we got 1,000 people registered, then the first purchase of 4 tickets (£60) covers our £20 expense. Thereafter, 4 more £60 purchases to confirm the 1 free ticket??

Before the World Cup it was going to be England-Australia at Wembley, now we get Australia-New Zealand at The Stoop.

How utterly depressing.

Agreed, why not a double header at Wembley Eng v Fra and Aus v NZ? Capacity sell-out if ever there was one. Credit crunch or no crunch. they sould call it "Wizardly Wembley Weekend"

However there is I suppose some promotional logic in rasing awareness of the Stoop and Quins RL as a location/club considering we seem to have little or no marketing budget. Beggers can't be choosers.

Interesting, thought one of the football grounds in town might have been given that game.

Wasn't it FC who rejected an offer of a game?
If Hull City weren't in the premiership, you would have got a game......boils down to sharing with the wendyball lot. Brentford and the Broncos wasn't a great experience and Wigan and Wigan aren't on speaking terms......

Could not have it at Wembley that weekend as big NFL game scheduled.
