| Not surprising really, end of the contract, tough economic times they probably jumped at the chance to get out. |

Back to reality?
How are other " minority" sports such as hockey getting on? Sponsors are generally willing to invest in clubs and individual players for a range of reasons some worthy some arguably not. Sponsors for national or regional competitions are in it because they believe it will help sustain/expand/improve their business . Nowadays firms are looking at survival.

| Just out of interest - does anyone know what typical attendances are for the women's game? I've read of record crowds at the Stoop, but we played a game against Wasps FC a couple of years ago, and there were more people watching our level nine fixture on the back pitch than were watching Wasps v Bristol Ladies on the main pitch. |

Mark, think I covered this elsewhere I believe the average last season was around the 400 mark, Quins being the exception. ------------- Crouch, Bind, Tweet! |

| 400?? So less than many attendances at Men's Level 5 or 6 - where exactly is the attraction for a "meaningful" main sponsor?? |

Coverage in the Sports pages of National Newspapers The odd televised match Both would be more than level 5 or 6 gets, but I take your point - not high profile. ------------- RAID ON |
