Just an idea. It's looking like west ham will be using the olympic stadium after 2012, is it not an idea to try and get a lease through the summer for
london rugby league? You could re-brand for the last time and finally get a home?

We have a home.

Plus we'd then pretty much be in Stratford......Yuck!!!!

better, in my opinion ,than the middle class dump that is twickers......as long as we`ve got holes in our ar$e$ the locals wont watch league.maybe a move to east london would find more down to earth /open minded people who`ll give us a go.

No thanks. Current stadium is just fine.

Maybe, but will they still have us if we end up in the championship? it is Fact it worked first time around but this time it has been a disaster and I see no chance of it changing short term.

2,500 folks rattling around a 15,000 capacity ground is for some heartbreaking. Can you imagine what they'd look like rattling around a 25,000 post olympic stadium????

Actually we don't have to do much imagining, we can just think back to the last time we were in Charlton.

Maybe Charlton has “down to earth /open minded” people, but it didn't do us much good crowd wise the last time.

I wrote a post a while back saying all this talk of location distracts from the real issues with regards to crowds. I stand by that.

charlton aint in east london.
how much longer are we going to waste time in the wrong part of london.
twickenham-nice stadium,locals not interested
stratford-fantastic stadium,locals ? interested
the main downside would be the youth development in sw london would suffer

I dont see how the class of the locals would effect attendances! The only reason we should move is if we get an amazing long term deal that improves on what we have.
