its more a part time sport place.

if super league wants to get a better sky sports deal then doubt london will help sell it more.

yes we have lots of empty seats :BOOHOO:


What exactly about it “isn’t superleague” sounds a bit snobbish when actually We got a seat, under cover, without paying a ridiculous amount of money which is more than many other SL sides offer. Even one of those with money and trophies.
The facilities were decent, and the staff weren’t jobsworths.
Nice little place - I liked it.

Shouldnt take any of it seriously Jools
If taking pop at Wigans points reinstatement /Woolfords job prospects /giants supporters on facebook for claimed non attendance etc aint enough --then why not at a team that in fairness are trying their best to compete with teams with much bigger attendance figures and facilities
After all if you get it wrong you can in all fairness always revert back to a previous identity :roll:

GIANTSRL wrote:good to get an important win , we started so well and never really looked in danger of losing the match... though did get a deja vu feeling when they got a try after half time to narrow the gap to 10 points!

but that resilience that was lacking early on this season seems to have been fixed.

mcintosh still has alot to learn at full back, sometimes wonder where our full back is when theres a break or chip through.

plenty of giants fans making a good noise, the stadium if you can even call it that is championship level at best certainly not sl standard, poorly run operation for me, willing to pay £5 for parking cant even do that...ah well they miss out


Like I said on the Broncos site London didn't miss out on your fiver the car parking was over subscribed you have to buy a ticket through the Broncos site prior to the game.






Mac out!

Its good enough for where London are today. Small crowds and it can facilitate travelling support.

The benefits are rent isn't to expensive, the operation is based there with juniors and first team all training there, the Gyms there & the plastic pitch is all weather. It suits London today. We could go back to Harlequins, maybe Brentford Football, but they are too big, breaks the set up and comes at a cost. The owner is pulling back on his costs.

Well done on your well deserved win. You blew us away first half and did enough to take the points. I suspect you are now looking up rather than down as your performances improve.

Ignore him, every Giants fan i spoke to were very complimentary about the setup down there and thought it was excellent for what it offered.
A lot of other clubs could take a leaf out of London's setup in how to treat supporters and make their experience a positive one.

will say again that setup and ground is not super league

just like castleford and wildcats arent

if super league wants to attract blue chip sponsors and get a bigger sky tv deal which is on the horizon then this wont appeal to them

its more like a part time sport which rugby league could actually become if the next tv deal is a bad one.

good day out but you could go upto the ymca laund hill, lockwood and its not far off being like london just less the 3hr 40mins drive

Don't talk silly it's nothing like that !

You have seemingly got a problem with either the London club maybe your not happy they are in super league? or the ground itself, which for the level it is currently catering for is perfectly adequate for hosting 1,500-2,500 fans which is probably about the crowds London will get, for the price you pay at most grounds you got a seat which was covered, a large indoor bar, 2 outdoor bars, lot's of toilets to choose from, plenty of refreshment options and a good view of the action on the field, not quite sure what else you were hoping to find unless you wanted carrying to your seat and food and drink served to you on a silver platter, but at Ealing there is everything and more that all grounds offer.

You keep saying it’s “not super league” but you haven’t said why.
So.... why?

the ground not the club

it was just amateurish for me , cant park in the ground then first thing you get when you walk in is portability toilets... got same again this friday at wildcats mind!

we are trying to sell the game to sponsors and sky for a new deal dont forget , this is the biggest thing in rugby league in a long long time could make or break the sport. fail and it goes part time , then these type of grounds are fine
