       Vanity event fatigue

       Seems the clubs direction of travel needs a reset. Poor
       atmosphere and attendance today despite the marketing spin. Get
       back to playing rugby without expenditure on non rugby sideshows
       perhaps?

       Totally agree with your sentiment but can understand why they
       feel they need to do it.

       Worst event there since the double-headers turned sour.

       If Quins had won today no one would be complaining

       Nonsense, there are many of us who do not really enjoy the
       Twickenham games but just go along with it.

       This.
       At least at this game we wore the quarters as opposed to a
       charity shirt.
       However it isn't summer and I would much rather have the last
       home game at home viewing from my season ticket seat with all
       that entails.

       As a STH, games across the road deliver very little, no members
       bar, and very little atmosphere
       From a clubs point of view a potential money spinner
       Wonder if we will ever get told how much was made/lost today

       Audi Quintro, you are most definitely not right…FACT. I and many
       friends have been firstly fans , and secondly for 25 years,
       season ticket holders at the Stoop. I can tell you that the
       Twickenham “ away day “ is wearing a bit thin to say the least.
       Regardless of the result today the whole experience was
       massively underwhelming. The atmosphere in the concrete vacuum
       was generally awful, as has been on too many occasions recently.
       The Big Game, fine, it has its place, but beyond that it’s time
       to concentrate our efforts at re-establishing The Stoop as our
       home ground, where visiting sides find it difficult to win, not
       a place which can inspire visiting sides. Not only that, the
       availability of half decent food and drink was distinctly
       lacking again. You are entitled to you opinion, but just because
       it’s yours it doesn’t make it “ FACT “.  So please try to
       moderate you own self important views.
