| Quote ="Scotquin"icon_smile.gif Chelmsford - or more accurately, South Woodham Ferrers.
140-mile round trip via the M25.
2.5-hour round trip on the train. (Impossible to get home by train if the games are on in the evening!)
Then again, I think I've mentioned that before.
'"
When have you ever got the train to a game? Anyway I only live in the Wembley area and it takes me about 2 hours (4 hour round trip) by train/bus every home game & you don't hear me moaning. Not about the travel anyway, don't get me started about the bar/beer though

| South Cumbria and I go to as many away fixtures as I can, but as yet have never been to a home game.
Whilst working in Twickenham in 2006 I did sneak into the ground one day on my lunchbreak to have a look round.

I'll second that! It would a short drive or bus ride for me instead of the current twenty minute drive and two hour train journey. Failing that The Stoop suits me fine, and despite the performances/results of the last two seasons, I still look forward to going to each game.

| Bundling things up a bit, a bit of a bodge, but an indicator maybe.
West London/Middlesex 9%
North London/Essex 14%
East London/Kent 19%
South London/Surrey 24%
Other 35%
So the winner is Other and the loser is the area where our ground is.
OK, only 75 votes so far and some of them may be trolls, but maybe it does indicate that we're in the wrong place? Or, more likely, that there isn't a "right place" for a London SL club.

Regardless of where they play, the club need to sort out the team/management first. 1.5 million a year out of Mr Hughes wallet to prop the club up? Seriously? 1.5 million? Where exactly is that being spent?
[uIF[/u they get another 3 years then I would suggest a new coach and 3 marquee players are the order of business straight away.

Much respect to the fans that travel so far to watch the team, moreso and they haven't been doing too well in the last few seasons!!! Actually to all fans that have been through the rollercoaster.

And as you showed great self control by not mentioning the 'M' word, I will. Last week I received an e-mail from the RFL, no less, advertising the next two CRUSADERS games. Never had anything about Quins from them.

I suppose the "right place" would be as close as possible to Central London, or at the very least a bit closer to a well served station than The Stoop. It probably doesn't make a lot of difference which quarter of Greater London we're based in.
Obviously the ground itself is far too large, but purely as a hypothetical example in terms of location and proximity to station the ideal would be somewhere like Arsenal FC. So in the real world, we'll be lucky to find anywhere better than where we already are.

| Not far from Lewisham - moved here in 1985 when London were at Crystal Palace (first time) - then they upped sticks to Chiswick.. The worst ground to get to from here is Twickenham..... it was less than 15 minutes cycling to Charlton.

| Warlingham, East Surrey. Unfortunately Tandridge District doesn't have any sports stadiums and as we're 90%+ green belt we won't be getting any anytime soon. Takes around 50 mins from front door to car park when the M25 is going okay, a move further north would be a killer, as would be any move deeper into London away from the M25 (unless it's close to Victoria or London Bridge, which is highly unlikely given the absence of suitable venues).

| Brentwood, Essex, I'm a 5 minute walk from the sugar hut but I'd rather do the 2 hour journey to the stoop every week.
Seems like we should become the exiles, play a quarter of games each in north east south and west London
