Fulltime sits in gym before training, part time finishes work before training. If they can't meet training obligations,they shouldn't be semi-pro.

London have long had there chance low crowds no permanent home sorry but that ain’t the answer

Yeah I know I was just trying to explain what could happen I think you’ll still go up whether it’s top spot or through the play offs

Really? Say as opposed having a very long time (170 years this year since the club was formed), yet still only managing on below subsistence crowds, only existing because of 1 benefactor and a forced merger whilst now rattling around a chasm of a soccer stadium with only partial income for matchday spending......yeah, London are a waste but let's keep investing in Huddersfield because they're the best run club in the sport

| Quote ="JEAN CAPDOUZE"We need Bradford to be promoted to the Championship at the end of this season. It is a powerful club in terms of fan base. It has a long, rich history. It has won much silverware. It has had a glittering array of stars in their playing ranks. The club gave coach Brian Noble great fame and coach Steven McNamara his start in life.
Bradford is one of four clubs in existence who we desperately need to be promoted to Super League (the other three being Toronto, Toulouse and London).'"
In terms of fan base are you for real when you are for the likes of London, Toulouse and Toronto who bring no fans what so ever

David Argyle, like David Hughes at London does nothing other than write cheques. Hughes drops 2 million a year as Argyle will have to do from next year onwards if they make SL........The problem isn't Hughes, the Problem is what the club are allowed to do with that 2,000,000........

Have you been to a game at Lamport Stadium?
It’s probably the best game day experience throughout the Championship and Super League.
David Argyle is the top dog at the Wolfpack, he is ultimately responsible for everything that happens.

I don't think he has, but he seems to know more about the club than the owner does.

As Castleford found out last season, you can beat a team all you want in the league, it's how you perform when it matters that counts!

Bit of stating the obvious that remark, someone like David Argyle at any club you care to mention could make a successful Super League team, if he can do it in completley virgin territory in Canada he could do it anywhere, Workington? Keighley? Newcastle? Fev? Leigh? do you want me to go on, till I've named every club.

London are a joke .....
The youth/academy set up I will give you as a small + but London village RL Club through all their previous names & guises & nomadic venues are pathetic, they are the revolving failed corner shop of RL.
London get 400 home fans for a reason, nobody wants them, RL couldn't care less & even London/home counties don't want them, London/Fulham/Harlequins are a wedding venue basket case short of a picnic !

London get 900 as an average.......and yes, that is shocking, but whilst they play out of a wedding venue, with no income on mach day....they do so in the Qualifiers......safe in the knowledge that they are funded again for 2019.......<REMOVED - please make your point without the name calling>

Not so keen when your little town club is under attack are you !
*this is also kind of the point of my post*.
IIRC & although I did not attend *it was reported on a Leigh Fans FB page by several who travelled* the London v Leigh game was more akin to a Leigh home match (attendance aside) given that several said there was about, if not more Leigh fans than London. Given your stated average of 900 (if true) what is the average number of home fans *Not the total* ?

Given your lack of a response to being asked when you've been to a game at Lamport, we have to assume that you're just making things up. It may well be a great experience, but making a statement like this implying you have personal knowledge to back it up is totally disingenuous.
