Well appears that 6274 people paid to watch that game. Good for them. I suspect a lot of the BBC audience watched in the same sad way you watch news of something horrid developing and I wonder how many of the thousands of London fans that have been built up by wacthing rugby league in the capital made the trip to Leigh.

I am delighted that the Challange Cup can muster such a large crowd on a neutral ground.

The game is an embarrassment, the London club is an embarrassment (despite some very well meaning and nice people there), time for a rethink on the future of Rugby League.........oh sorry that's next year! The RfL are past being an embarrassment.

Mind you I suspect some of you reading this will support expansion.

All taken in jest, MM, hence the

icon!

Charlie will hopefully see you on Wednesday evening , I will probably be enlisted to give Bentleyman a life from the George .

I was embarrassed to see the game yesterday.A semi final of an historically prestigious competition on national tv was simply degraded. All those who have supported London over the decades can't seriously say they have been a succes. A club that has been bailed out,no permanent ground. no supporters, a team that has been filled with australians constantly and still they bang the London drum. To pay those at the top £250k p.a. salary to promote that as success just beggars belief.No doubt we will see the rules bent for next season to see London full of aussies again to make sure they don't finish in relegation spot.Total crass. 70 - NIL in a semi final. Come on.........!

And Mr"BluesoxWood" will keep raking his well earned

brass in.

Just my opinion but rugby league in Southern France is not expansion, they love it down there as a large number of people have experienced.
Fair enough if you say the expansion is having a French team in SL I agree, the stupid expansionist move was trying to put a team from Paris in the comp.
