Errr rugby league fans, thats the usual. Are you seriously suggesting the move is based on the assumption wimbledon afc football fans are going to suddenly become rugby league fans.
I would suggest very few if not zero ealing trailfinders union fans started watching RL.
Same as no barnet fans
Or Harlequins fans.

Plenty of Harlequins fans gave us a go - unfortunately we quickly managed to alienate them and they never returned.

Errr in case you hadn't noticed, RL fans don't turn up now other than a handful. If they did we wouldn't be in this state.

The club are doing their best to pee off few hundred or so of the fans that they have.

I was (am) a Harlequins fan and only tagged onto the Broncos when we became QUINS RL. 3 of us gave it a go, the other 2 got fed up.

You'd be wrong then.
I know at least 6 Harlequins fans who followed the club across to barnet and 3 of them regularly attend ealing. There are at least 2 Quins fans who post on here and elsewhere.
The club have always used the line "we'll attract our hosts fans" but never really bothered. the double header was evans idea at Twickenham. London broncos struggle with any concept of marketing as shown by the adhoc and unjoined up sporadic bursts we've seen over the years.
No plan. just get some money, spend it on a bus-stop/travel card holder and hope it works.
It'll be the same at plough lane. Initial interest with no follow up other than to maybe try and sell a few polo shirts

The planning application to allow use of Plough Lane for rugby as well as football is available here.

I don't see when a decision is expected to be taken but it is open for comments until 28-Apr so must be after that.
