Advantages: Atmosphere

Disadvantages: Majedski stadium and half a team

What has happened to that great team London Irish??? I have been an avid supporter for a number of years and still recollect the days of standing in the mud at Sunbury with a crowd of 3000 screaming at the average rugby team. With the rise to the Premiership it was inevitable that the ground would have to change, but Harlequins for goodness sake?? However, the move turned out to be to our advantage pulling in bigger grounds and generally better facilities. However, don't fool yourself if you think the move to Reading will be the same. The Majedski stadium has a capacity of 25,000 and London Irish can pull in a maximum of 7000.........can you imagine what this will look like? Not only this but Dick Best has allowed every decent player we've got to walk away.............what are you doing to this team. I don't deny Best has done a lot for London Irish, but it's time to start afresh and get the team going again.
