[QUOTE="munstermuffin, post: 617097, member: 39240"] But when ye had Bowe Collins Marshall as well as Welsh stars ye never attracted fans. In a country where arguably it's #1 sport the attendances and performances are poor. Yes there is an exodus but that will continue regardless of where ye play unless ye get it right and I'm not saying there angels but WRU can't take all blame. You say AP is more popular well than Rabo yea but not HEC and financially it won't bring in more when you loose HEC, Rabo and WRU funding to go to a league where instead of a 12 way pie it'll bring a 16 way pie. If you can't rebuild a squad in a league where there's no relegation how will ye do it in AP? Ye won't be nowhere near top of league so fans won't come like being honest ye couldn't get them in when times were booming so why now would they come to watch at best a mid-table team. [/QUOTE]
