Exactly! On the road games at Griffin Park were forced on us as the pitch was always having to be re-seeded, these games could be a way of taking our club and RL in general to other parts of the South and exposing (ooh err!) them to it! Never know, it might even bring a few new fans in!

So where would we go? Leyton Orient? Millwall? Brighton?
I don't see the benefit in playing in empty grounds just for the sake of going somewhere new.

| I wonder whether this road trip thing has been forced on us as part of the RFL's development deal (or maybe Quins want rid of us for a couple of games).
Can't see the benefit to our club and I think it could be detrimental to ST sales, as any waverers will think sod it, not going to bother as we've only got 11 home games (and I'll get some freebies in the ES anyway).
Personally, I could live with 1 road game (and would enjoy a jolly-up in Brighton) but I think missing two home games is a but much, tbh.
Guess we may find out more at the FF.

If someone puts a case I will listen to it. The repeated folly of rebranding and renaming and moving every few years has got us not very far forward in 30 years. We may be strengthening the squad a bit for next season but if all the money being thrown at this by yet another chief exec trying to put his stamp on us were to be spent on further players or (with gritted teeth in homage to GF) on marketing that to me would make far more sense.

| Could the 'on the road' games be anything to do with the Olympic Games?

I think you will find that there will be no other professional sport played during the course of the Olympics - as per the diktat of the IOC. I think it is an outrage!

I think you'll find its probably idiotic anti-Union Northeners who make up the majority.

Wot ee sez, bruv. The only point I can see in any rebranding would be around a big sponsorship deal to "re-brand" us as London and the name of a well known brand or product or "health" drink if the rumour mill is to be believe). Outside of this, then the only other time to re-brand would be upon moving to new premises.

But what if this is new signing stategy is in conjunction witha targetted marketing campaign to residents within say a 20 mile radius of The Stoop. Wouldn't that signal were at The Stoop for a little longer ???
Or is it like I have believed just a red herring to divert attention from our on field poor performance and activity in support of our Licence application???????

| Lambeth Quin - I think you have hit the nail on the head with your last para. If the club felt that re-branding had to be done to secure us a new licence, then I am right behind it.
Re your second para, I thought it had been stated that we were at The Stoop for the next three years. I do hope so anyway.
