| If this fails, and I hope it proves to the club that we want to stay in London, how about following the Skolars and help them push up to the Championship? Promotion is a definite possibility next year.

I don't think there is promotion next year, leaving it a year for the new teams to bed in I read somewhere.
But back on topic yes, no hesitation.

| The pricing structure has been bizarre for a while now. Tickets are too cheap. Another sign of how badly the club is run from a business POV.
I imagine that the club could sell tickets at £5 more without impacting attendances such is the inelasticity of demand. That's the equivalent of turning your nose up at an extra £150k per annum.

| Yes.
And ever since they started messing about with seating arrangements I'd also have been willing to pay more to sit in the West Stand.

I quite agree. I paid the more expensive price but would have paid more if it was to help the club.
Yes I understand ticket discounting to drum up interest but we only get what we pay for and for the last few years we have been paying under the odds for top level sport in a top venue. Yes, we can moan about a lot of the performances that we have been subjected to in that time but again we were not being charged enough to pay for a top level squad and club in the most expensive part of the country.
A move to Gillingham is clearly aimed at a new and different market. Fair enough, good luck.
I however want to support a London club, playing in London. I am prepared to pay a reasonable rate to achieve that.

| Deffo!! The Stoop is the place for us......Double the cost of a season ticket is nothing compared to the time/travel costs to that Shite-hole Gillingham.....

| I'd pay more but would it encourage new support unless the team starts next season as it's finishing this one.

The club should just write this season off and focus on next year as being the first of the "rebrand". DH has finally seen sense and binned Powell off and if Rea is announced permanently, then their is some real hope for a stable future (on the pitch). People are happy to pay obscene amounts of money to watch Harlequins RU only a few years after far more humble beginnings. Have the 1000 core fans paying £200 for a season ticket and go from there. If they product is good, people will pay.

| I would pay double what I currently pay for me and Master Sheen. Oddly, having paid more, I would be less likely to skip games, but would be more demanding of the team.

I bought the higher ticket as well - if I could be confident they would actually offer the 'benefits' listed with the season ticket I would pay at least the same if not a bit more.
Given that they haven't this year I'm already feeling unsure about it. If they go to Gillingham I'm out, which is a shame - I've introduced about 6 new people to RL this year and all have said they'd go again next season.

| I would happilly pay much more for my season ticket to stay at the Stoop.
I would not buy a season ticket for Gillingham. Having watched since Fulham days I'd find it hard to resist the occasional game but, who knows, once out of the habit it's easy to decide it's too much of a pain and a time-consumer to slog off to G. by tube and train.
Did anybody else spot the Gillingham chairman at the Stoop last Friday? The guy next to me pointed to a bloke sitting behind the press rows and said he was the Gillingham chairman. I didn't think much of it at the time then got worried when I read these threads.

There's no flies on Hector, that's for sure. I reckon if the RFL can buy oddslum, then securing the land for other club owners to pay to develop, would be a good bit of Business all around.....maybe Gus could get some 20/20 matches played there to raise funds for it
Londons SL team, regardless of what they are called or where they play need a total change of back office management and ownership IMO.....[uI[/u really haven't changed the record for 11 years now and guess what, [uI[/u was right back in 2002, [uI[/u am right now and [uI[/u was right all along.......and [uI[/u get no pleasure in saying that at all.
Jaybs will come along and dream I was here to "put up or shut up" but the FACTS remain the same.....the club has stumbled from fiasco to disaster to farce....the last 20 months have been an accelerated process, but the same regardless.....
Let's face it, if 50% of fans refused to go to Gillingham, would anyone notice?

| Already paid the higher price, but yes would be happy to pay more to stay at the Stoop. I would also be prepared to pay a bit extra to have a reserved seat as the unallocated seating does not work for me.....thought it would, but no.

Common sense at last , I presume you are talking about 50% or even 75% of the fans on this forum. On twitter last night there was a message getting plenty of re-tweets saying "Broncos to Stay in London Campaign" I think there is much possibility of that happening and it is much more reasonable than laying down an ultimatum The Stoop or nothing.
I do not agree with the move to Kent, I see the attraction with a strong amateur rugby base but I'm not convinced and will Super League allow it?

| I paid almost £1000 for the 4 of us last year at the Stoop, this year only 2 of us at £198.. So a £300 loss for no reason.
Still, move to Gillingham and another £198 gone plus all the merchandise bought (when it finally arrived in the shop!)
