Mmmm....very disapointing. I belive that we may be looking at a figure of around that that was posted on sl stats for the game v HKR last year......
I was embarrased and ashamed last night (as well as a bit tipsy ). I made the point of coming back from Leeds, (where I could have had another night in a Hotel and beer and supper on expenses) but sad to say, not many other fans bothered.......
Hard to explain just how cringeworthy it was, but let's just say.........not our finest moment!

Nothing to do with us as a club though. But it would have been nice to have seen a few more bodies there. We could have sung going home in a taxi and not been far wrong!

too true...
didn't mean the "club", but the "clique" that is London based RL fans.

I think there needs to be a lot of soul searching and a correct appointment at the "club" as to where our priorities lie...
Is it all to be community community community......with the same 3,000 fans, or do we diversify a little and try something new to raise our profile?

I can't point the finger at anyone regarding last night....but I would say that there could have been a slightly better line of communication other than me and ady posting on facebook and the quins site posting it on Tuesday. Walkabout advertised it in TNT on Monday.......so that points to a fairly reasonable route to market for future ref.
5,000 on sunday, I am a few quid down to a good cause (remind me again) and we need to be pushing wigan next week HARD in the Kings afterwards!

couldn't make it myself, was working, but all I'd say is no matter how embarrasing it was, nothing ventured nothing gained, gotta try any and every idea, it's the sum total of all the efforts that count not the one push...

fly enough kites and one will take off I swear - fair play to you and Ady and keep the ideas coming
