Quote: The Penguin "Well they're idiots living in dreamland. The only realistic stadium options for us all involve quite a bit of travel. The nature of our fanbase is that we are spread all over the shop, no one location is going to be perfect for everyone.'"
Completely agree, no one ground is going to please everyone! but is we are ever going to move forward, we need to be in a better position with regards the ground then renting, we need to have some share & control. It was only after Mark Evans left that our landlords started to play difficult with us, how can you stay at a ground like The Stoop where you are so limited to what facilities you can use and when. It is simply not workable administration not being based at the ground.
I see only two grounds as a possibility, The Hive, which the council attitude is not helpful with, and Orient, all the end of the day Gillingham may be the only option and that will kill the club.
I was around 9, that we will be playing in Super League next season 2014, but even up to yesterday we are still working hard to make a ground agreement, so it has dropped to 7 currently.
2015, well that depends if we survive and find a ground, If we do, which of course if my hope, then if we recruit well, it just may be possible to survive, but what supporters we have left then, will need to get behind the team and players. I have said before if some put in the same effort they do at moaning in backing the club, and I'm not saying, no one should ever say anything how the club is being run, then we may do better!
I have never seen a forum on RLFANS that has so many visitors, they are reading the constant bickering and moaning, and I could do better, is it no wonder the North wants to pull up the drawbridge and forget the South full stop, next they will want to change the name to The Northern Rugby League, then they can become a minor sport proper.
