Quote ="Budgiezilla"Leigh did, signed too many 'has beens' though we did defeat the mighty London Broncos that season.
Though pre- super league, you probably aren't aware of this, but in 1981-82 it was called The Stones Bitter Championship, Leigh won it. In one game against Castleford we had over 12000 at Hilton Park (jealous ?), we don't play there now, we've got a lovely brand new stadium.
'Swings & Roundabouts' matey, just pray that you lot don't lose your franchise, as you'll be back getting London Crusader's (remember them ?) gates of 500 - awww Bless !
Just admit it, London Folk just aren't interested in Rugby League are they, be it at HARLEQUINS, Fulham, Crystal Palace, Barnet, Brentford, etc'"

average of 4,735 (boosted enormously by travelling fans being able to make it down the road from Wigan, Warrington & Saints et al) and low of 3,201 - it's hardly setiting the world alight is it knucklehead and you're a heartland side, with more than a hundred years history.
And if you want to bring up historical attendance figures, 15,013 watched Fulham play Wakefield in 1981....
But back to the present, face facts - new stadium or not, you'll always be a suburb of St Helens, Warrington and Wigan and as such an unlikely candidate for SL. Finishing in the bottom half of the Co-op Champs isn't going to help you either....
Btw - Halifax destroyed you today, in case you've been avoiding the results? I can only assume you didn't go along (hardcore fan eh!?) as you posted not long after the game finished and there's no way you made it back home that quickly....
Good work.
