Only 5 players on the books? Doesn't look good for them

Perhaps this is the only way they have to find a buyer who may be interested once the club is debt free.
I hope they do find a buyer, RL & SL needs a club in the capital IMO.

Such a shame how things are going. They looked good back in the day when they based their club around being an Aussie home from home for players and fans. They did need to develop more English talent though and have done that but it's cost them that identity and support they had from London based Aussies/Kiwis.

They need some investment, a new home (Brentford always seemed good to me) and a balance between the two.

Enough is enough. Championship at best. No ground, only 5 players and now administration. Give Fev a chance for 12 months

Can't see how any Championship club could get themselves ready for Superleague with only 10 weeks till the start of the season.
London should have done the decent thing and resigned at the end of last season.

Surely Leigh? Better Stadium and facilities and it would even up the number of clubs on either side of the Pennines. (Would be more beneficial to Wigan as well regarding away support at the DW).

That said, a settled London club with 'Koucash' style owner would be a hundred times better than any Championship club coming up, doesn't look good though.

It's been coming for a while this, the Players were told about 2 Months ago they were all free to look for other clubs. Surely the RFL must have known.

Time to stop the impossible task of having a London based team...been tried before and failed every time.

How many chances are they going to get? They've been a basket-case almost from the start (with few & far between high points). More than beyond time for the RFL to admit it just won't work. Enough is enough.

no championship club will want to replace London for 2014 unless they are given an assurance by the RFL that they will also be in super league for 2015 as well. They wont have time now to recruit players, they would all be better off preparing to get the squad in place for the promised promotion place that will exist in 2015...

The Magic weekend will be a complete farce as someone is going to be gifted 2 points by either playing a very poor London, a replacement Championship club or no-one at all...

Surely the only thing to do is about it is announce that the team at the bottom of the league as at the last round before magic gets the "london" fixture.

Presumably the RFL have been too busy with the RLWC2013 to see this coming and try and help!

Relegate them to the championship and simply dont replace them. give everyone a bye week

so somebody gets a nice rest before going into the play offs? notably Leeds, their opponents in round 24

luck of the drawer

Is that really true about the Aussie/Kiwi fans? It's the first time I've heard that factor mentioned. Fascinating if that happened.

yeh i suppose, but it does give unfair advantage to some teams. Dont forget, its not 1 bye week , its 2. Maybe some teams will be advantaged by having bye weeks before cup games?
Add the fact that fans who bought season tickets have paid to watch 13 home games and they would now only get 12?
Hardly a saving having a season ticket any more?

sorry..just not a fan of bye weeks, especially at what would be very short notice

Can't believe people are suggesting moving teams up from the Championship. Sad as the situation is, we have gone on for far too long with 14 teams and this is a blessing in disguise IMO - there aren't enough quality players to support a 14-team league and the amount of teams that have got into financial strife in the last few years completely contradicts one of the main reasons for licensing. Hopefully we will revert to a 12-team league with a 5-team playoff series and relegation before too long, it's the only way to ensure competitive fixtures throughout the season at both ends of the table.

smells a bit fishy this one, would the RFL had an inkling when they drew up the fixtures?

time for Wigan B

i agree but i dont think bringing a team up from the championship will work and its too late to relegate 1 team to take it back to 12 so if we have a 13 team league a bye week is the only way around the fixtures

We already have them. They go under the name of "Widnes".

Well precisely. Apparently they have been micro managing clubs to the detriment of marketing and other aspects of the game. Well that is what they said was a big reason why they needed the proposed restructure that has been on the table and 6 clubs objected to.

So if they have been micro-managing how come it has come to this?

It doesn't add up. The RFL will no doubt try and use London's demise as ammunition to justify their changes when in fact it's their slack regulation that has led to first Bradford and now London to this.

As to the viability of a club in London I still don't think this proves it is impossible. A big mistake has been all along IMO calling it London. It's never been London and as such I don't thinks its ever had an identity which was also not helped by its nomadic existence. Its needed roots in one place and stability. It's never had it IMO.

If we want a club in the Capital we need to invest as a sport in a ground that is good enough in an area given some thought. Not plonk it in RU territory or sharing with some unwilling landlord. I think we have for decades tried to do London on the cheap.

Agree with this DaveO.. And i too was completely staggered when they choose/decided, to play at the Stoop, what were they thinking.

That's more or less how the London experiment started, in the 1930's, when Wigan Highfield moved down there.

come on guys the semi with us last year was frankly,well a don't know what to say,but its time to let them go
