| Having spoken to the vast majority of the fans who turned up for our last home game of the season yesterday, we have inadvertently conducted the largest fan feedback session for many a year. I don't think there will be any surprises with what we found but it does speak volumes about us as a "tribe"
There is universal frustration about the silence. In fact many said it was at the very least disrespectful, although none were surprised!
The majority were happy to engage with the idea of a Supporters Trust. Standing up and being counted is an option!
No one (and I mean no one) has any faith in the current regime to deliver a sustainable future for this club. Most vehement were the opinions on Gus, and it seems David Hughes has lost the crowd now too.
Most believed we should be in South West London, whether that be to stay at the Stoop or return to Brentford.
Some thought a clean break in East London is an option.
The pride in the young talent coming through is massive.
Some I spoke to who I have great respect for and are long and passionate supporters of the Club in all its guises from Fulham on now think its too late. One said "if you could find a million you should spend it on something else!"
Having said that at least one person said they were in for a "few thou" if we could get this off the ground.
Barnet is a NO NO!
We really do have a great sense of humour in adversity!
Thanks again for your time yesterday. Whatever happens it was a great experience for us to speak to so many people with passion for our game and our club.

| Where did this survey take place?
Maybe we could take some solace from our opponents yesterday and look at where they were not too long ago.

Indeed. But they got a sugar daddy who was a real business man.The cost of living in Hudds as well as its location to other clubs Up North means that he can get the quality players if he uses his money wisely. We've been looking for someone like that for 30 years.

You should send this summary or something similar to the club. However I would expect it to be ignored.

You give Gus to much credit, he would not know what to do with useful information like this!

There is no denying the success on the pitch, and perhaps with a coach whose position was was seriously questioned, when first appointed.
Solace, from a Giants point of view? I am unsure, with attendances so low, when top of Super League, a place were the modern game was started of Rugby League, and attendances around 5,500?
I do not believe, that we should stay in South West London, however much is spent on marketing I can't see it working, for me it is East End, and build in a community from the start, that may accept us more.

| What is interesting to me is that London's plight does not merit a single thread or even post on the Virtual Terrace. Or anywhere else I can find away from here.

| Because the club is in limbo and it will (probably) be weeks before anything is found out for 2014, has there been contingency plans for 2014 should the club cease to exist?

It doesn't matter, it's usually full of fools talking about how it's good for the game of rugby league and a true club can rise from the ashes that is the London Broncos and be truly competitive while attracting crowds that will be the envy of the football teams in the area.

| If London are to drop out of SL then the RFL need to announce it now, not any closer to the RLWC! No games in the capital other than the Big Bash so I wouldn't expect much media coverage in the first place, but this sort of bad news needs to be buried and fast.
Personally, I believe the club will be at the Hive next year in SL.........Propped up by a mixture of RFL and David Hughes cash....they will be one of the 2 that drop down and from 2015 the club need to build from the bottom up with no staff immune from hands on work (setting up on match day etc) and linking up with the community.
I will continue to follow them, but it is hard to say if I would be prepared to attend 13 home games in 2014 given the dross over the last few years.....it's more about seeing friends than the rugby.
Let's see what the Club and the RFL come up with....you never know, it might actually make sense
