Although we have been shifted about a bit, we have always maintained a few constants. Moving to MK would literally be a different club, one that I would not support.

Nor me, much too far to travel. I could probably get to Warrington nearly as quickly.

But if DH has finally come to the conclusion that London will forever be a no go for RL, then he has to give up or think of alternatives.

If he's thinking of alternatives, I'd rank MK as pretty much one of the worst that he could come up with. Bristol on the other hand...

A full time commitment to MK will see me abandon super league but will
at least allow me to commit to my local amateur sides.

I'd be the same if I had a local amateur side

id still go if we started playing home games at MK.
would rather we didnt but I would still go.

Surely the point would be that we would not be paying rent or that there would be financial incentives from the council to play there. We're paying proper rent to Quins RU now, and we cant afford to keep doing that. The only way forward is to find a home that wants us.

I can assure you i had no idea of the MK idea when I bought a house there!

And i dont listen to **C.

As long as we can cover our fixed costs, there is no reason why we shouldn't continue where we are. Hopefully in the future we can flourish at our current home. I can't see many councils/football clubs/whoever offering any form of incentive to a failing rugby league club with sky high debts.

Could be worse. You could live at Wood Green.

When have we tried to find a supporter base in TW2? Please...if we fail to attract crowds it is for 1 reason only.......and I am still of this belief nearly 5 years after we moved to Twickenham......nobody knows we exist.
The club have again failed to market the game or the matchday event......they have stumbled around EXPECTING PEOPLE TO JUST ROLL UP........and when they haven't, they have just given up. I understand there is a 2 page article in one of the RL papers with the marketing bod at Quins....and I am currently trying to get a copy sent over, but I can pretty much gues that it's a couple of pages "boo hoo....it's the toughest job in sports marketing"......so what? If it was easy, they would have had 1000's of applicants.......what is the use of telling the RL community that we have trouble attracting fans when we haven't tried to attract fans locally?
Kids = Development
Amateurs = Development
Neither = fans

For as long as I have followed the club, there has been an attitude that people will turn up eventually....well I am sorry, but if you want them to turn up, it would help to INVITE THEM FIRST.

Move to MK? If so, watch the club die in 3 years. IMO that is

Follow the club to MK? Don't think so squire, that's the end as far as I'm concerned. Looks like 30 years after Fulham RL started that top level RL could be about to come to an end in the capital. Shame.

I wouldn't panic, the only source for this "rumour" appears to be internet message boards.

There's no way I could get to Milton Keynes, the time it would take to travel there every other week would just be ridiculous. If it happened, it'd be the end of my association with the club. Surely any move to MK Dons ground would see us pay rent there as well?

Think this whole thread is a wind up.

As a matter on interest... why ridiculous, is it a public transport issue?

And so would I if it happens.

It's not a total wind up. I've good reason to believe the club has at the very least given consideration to playing the Warrington match "on the road" at Milton Keynes, as I explained earlier. Hopefully the speculation about a permanent move to MK is no more than hypothesis. I hope that doesn't happen though and think it would make more sense to follow up the recent Friday match with Bradford by playing this game on the Friday too. (At The Stoop!)

If we were to move to Milton Keynes, would we then be able to sign as many Aussies as we like (e.g. Wrexham) as a club in a new `expansion` area???

If (and it's a bloody big if) we move to MK, I can foresee the Skolars suddenly getting a lot more fans

i'd be quite happy if next year all our home games were played on a friday night

Me too. But the club would haveto do something for Our fans who find Fridays a pain.

Why? I find Sundays a pain, they don't do anything for me.

Yep

Have talked to a few fans on this and a couple that live away from TW2 said They would find it very diffcult work etc. Sure the club could come up with something to give them the incentive to come on a friday night.
