Did anyone get along to this? - Just wondering if there were any highlights, nuggets of information that were picked up?

Thanks for the link, very interesting listen. The key points seemed to be



- We will be renamed definitely this summer, we prob already guessed that - but this confirms it

- We will continue to play at The Stoop, almost certainly for the period of the next franchises (assuming we get one) - with a view to developing our own 15k capacity ground to be the home of RL in London

- Taking 2 games on the road next season away from The Stoop, venues TBA, but within the South East

- We will be making some significant signings for next season

- We will be marketing the new club aggressively



All sounds good, lets hope it all get's followed through. I wonder how much of this was also planned when we became Quins RL??



All in all a positive exercise though I feel

The Marketing point is one we've heard before, but they've made steps in the right direction this year so let's hope that happens.



On the Road games? Sceptical to be honest. These were a joke during the Broncos era and besides, who would have us? Where would we go? In most stadiums our crowds look dismal compared to all the empty seats.

I'm guessing "South East" will include Milton Keynes

Islington

Our own 15k capacity ground? LOL.

One of the best things i heard and standed out was when someone said 'I hope harlequins are not in the super league next year but i hope a team in london will be'.

I think that sums it all up.

I think BBC Radio London need to be congratulated for the coverage they give is, this live session seemed well attended and I was impressed with our CEO Gus, who seemed honest and was able to answer questions clearly and seemed that he was fully in touch.



Thanks tricky-dicky for listing the key points one you seem to have missed is the determination it seems from the RFL to follow up the work that has been done and also the first class infrastructure now in place for the amateur game especially with youth rugby league. I applaud the sponsorship from Hard Rock Cafe and the Lord Mayor into such as East Ham with young people.



Regards name of the club I think most of us accepted it had to happen and it was good that the loyal lady who wanted to retain the name was given her opportunity to express her opinion, though I have always said and I know this when we have changed radio station names you do it for a reason and that the brand is not working, so why push all the resources and extra investment unless you are going for a complete new image and brand.



I would have thought that our name should have been decided in advance so when the Super League next set of Super League team licences are awarded next Tuesday if we are successful the name could be announced.

Agreed!

Pretty much my thoughts, was an interesting programme I thought .

My money would be on MK, Reading or Brighton for the "on the road" games - they would have to market them properly though so as not to end playing in front of more empty seats that we currently do at the Stoop!
