Quins RL Announcement Today? : Mon Mar 16, 2009 5:49 pm  

It was rumoured yesterday and "League Weekly" carry an article this morning that a Quins RL announcement is due today on a major re-organization of the club.

The rumour/report says that Mark Evans is to come on board to oversee Quins RL with also the appointment of a General Manager.

David Hughes would not confirm anything yesterday except that the announcement would be Monday?

Arf.

As much as he would bring, ATEOD i'd rather we were a struggling "proper" RL club than a Union club playing League.

Ditto. Bring back The Broncos! Either at The Valley (Charlton Athletic), Loftus Road (QPR FC) or Brisbane Rd (Leyton Orient FC) and get a proper marketing team together to plug the capital's premier RL Club.

Can't we just wait and see what the announcement is rather than knocking down something we don't yet know the details about.

There is one thing that is perfectly clear we can't survive on the lowest average attendances in Super League of around 3,200 - Someone need to bring CHANGE!

Nobody is knocking anything down.

Don't get me wrong (and i'm not accusing you of doing so), I think there is potential for Harlequins RL to be a successful club but changing Harlequins RL into a Union style club would be wrong IMO as the 2 products and experiences are very different.
