[QUOTE="PutPutPut, post: 575552, member: 69995"] Coventry (while not in Birmingham, but you mentioned them in your post) were a big club in the 1990's. Shocking mismanagement has led to their rather tragic demise, but there's an example of an established club showing that there is the potential for a support base. I'm not arguing that serious investment from outside wouldn't be needed, but rather that you can't make the argument that there's no pro rugby in Birmingham because everyone is off playing. People play in all towns where there are clubs. [/QUOTE]
