You've got to be kidding...Chad is has been our top tackler for many years and usually the (or one of) the most effective.

Think those stats wrong...since 2011, Chad has made 1,510 and missed 90 (a success rate of around 95%). Are you getting mixed up with marker tackles? He's made 256 of those over the last 3 years.

Jeez, we don't need anyone trying to make our team look any worse than they are!

Whatever the stats say (and let's face it stats can be bent any way you want - just ask George Osborne!) but Chad's been dreadful for at least the last 3 seasons, a shadow of the player he used to be! You only had to see the impact made when Rinaldi would come off the bench last season to see how poor Chad is now, I couldn't see him getting a game at any other SL club. I'm not convinced that Tommy Lee's an adequate replacement either.

Chad is a spent farce.

[size=50That's not a typo btw[/size

London needs another French hooker.

Chad Randall is the least of our concerns IMO.

Chad may have lost a bit of his zip (he's getting on a bit as we know) but I think it's only fair to set his record straight.

Always remember Brian Mac saying (more than once) that Chad was the best trainer and hardest worker...usually out-staying the others in the gym etc). Also, he's barely missed a game for us in 7 years which we cannot say about many of our current and previous players.

It seems to me that he's always tried his best for London so don't know why so many people snipe at him.

Anyhoo, as richie says, least of our problems at the moment.

Nah, all the ones from Eastern Europe are all that's needed.

Crikey, I've jinxed Chad...out of the 19 with an injury.

London's long march into the top 8 has just begun on the playing fields of Salford.

Hopefully Ben Fisher and Tommy Lee will be the regular hookers.

Lets hope so

...and what happened ??

As I expected, Tony Clubb added toughness to the team on Friday night.

London Broncos are now only two points outside the top 8, and only five points outside the top 4!

London Broncos brilliant victory in the mud over Castleford has taken London to just two points from the top 8 again.

This is an important away victory. What a great turn around for this plucky team!

Next Saturday London are at home against Hull FC.

We need 3,000 London fans to show up to out shout the traveling Hull fans.

Credit where credit is due. Well done boys with a fantastic result. Now back it up with a win against Hull and the season is alive.

London has the individual talent to be in the top 8, especially with Craig Gower as the playmaker. It is up to the individuals to give their best each week and to play as a team.

2,538 is the Lowest gate for Hull in London....4,665 the biggest with an average of 3,633 over 17 games. 6th biggest draw in SL for London...anything less than 3k will be a disgrace!

Won't even get close to 3k. Hope I'm wrong

What a shame that London are up against top 6 sides for the next few weeks. I hope it doesn't demoralise the team if they lose all of them, because I still think that, when they play with passion and with Gower, the team can beat at least half the clubs in Super League.

The next few weeks may skew the club's position on the table negatively. However after that phase, they can start to win and hence climb the table again, if their mental attitude is right.

Problem is, with sub 1k gates, the team will ask themselves "what's the point".......if they don't get a result on Thursdsay, it may well be June before they can win a game....


Losses to Widnes and Wakey in the opening weeks spelt the end of their PLay-off hopes in 2013.....the club are moving away from the stoop next year and patently, the fans and back office staff can't be bothered any more......dead man walking is a pretty accurate way to describe the club.

Surely they will get more than 1,000 on Thursday. The team has shown more passion in recent weeks. The results have followed. The fans know that. It is worth going just to see Kieran Dixon play. With another exciting young attacking player in the French side, full back Morgan Escare, there should be some entertaining play. If Gower plays then London has a chance to win, though it won't be easy.

Gus McKay needs to get off his backside for once and promote the game.

...he's too busy making poppadoms!



4 Home games so far this year:

Widnes, 2,856: 14% down on the average gate 1996-2012.
Wakefield, 1,887: 34% down on the average gate 1996-2012
HKA, 1,837: 44% down on the average gate 1996-2012
Hull FC, 1,865: 49% down on the average gate 1996-2012.

Thus far, 2,111: 43% down on the average seasons gate 1996-2012

Catalans average to date 1996-2012 is 2,635........I reckon they'll get half of that at best....and if it's cold and wet, the 1k mark is at risk!

You also have major road works on the M25 both north and south sides, night before a bank holiday, poor weather, could be interesting travel.

Catalans gate will be 1000 tops I reckon.

At least 1000 will make it look pretty full at Esher !
