It is just a realisation that fans of most clubs know that your comments ain't worth jack, and you come across as a complete w@nker. You'll have to change your profile my little keyboard warrior, if your life revolves around winding people up.

If you don't toe the party line you are a troll and a hater. Everything is hunky dory in the Eden that is the M62 corridor because there were a number of close results in the pool matches at the RLWC which were witnessed by fans paying as little as £3.75 a ticket before some absolute hammerings bar one semi-final........in the last 7 games. The legacy of this RLWC is now being seen with a fire sale at Bradford and a split in the domestic game whilst internationally Fiji are still having to qualify for the 4 nations even though Hellen Keller could tell you they are the closest side to the big 3 whilst the Italian squad have all gone home to Australia.
Nope.....you are better off saying how wonderful a job Nigel did and keeping your head down on here |

I'm flattered you've taken the time to read all my posts. What are your thoughts on my stance regarding expansion, the RFL way v the NRL way? |

Really? So you've not read all my posts thoroughly then? I'd not.be so quick to judge then buddy.....if you don't have a point if view or anything to add to the debate them you really do come across as a waste of space.
Just for you...
Melbourne being owned by the com owner and senior broadcast partner worked........London being left to fend for themselves in one of the most expensive regions on the planet hasn't........and the RFL and some narrow minded club chairmen are to blame! |

London Broncos will be rescued shortly ... for the time being.
Who the Broncos will be able to buy from the NRL at this late stage is a troubling question. There are some unhappy campers Down Under (Josh Hoffman, Kevin Locke, Blake Ferguson for example). But whether any of them will come to London to play in a pack that consists of a handful of young southern England novices, under a coach like Tony Rea, is very questionable.
However, if Tony Rea and Gus McKay are still holding down their current positions by the middle of 2014, then you can be certain that 2014 will be the last season for London Broncos in Super League.

Yes, it's a pity. The WC has well and truly sunk Bradford and has caused real strife between the SL Chairmen. I'm surprised more folk haven't picked up on that. |

In today's trade papers they are suggesting Sean Long will get the head coach's job, Rea as CEO and McKay out of the club.
I can see Wigan and maybe Wire and HullFC loaning some of their first team fringe players to London, those plus 4-6 NRL men could form a decent squad.

I think there will be a lot of young players on loan and not a lot of permanent signings at London this year

Erm, I've heard Gus isn't employed any more...
CEO in place who knows RL - Yup
Coach employed - Yup
Ground all lined up - Yup
Players sorted - In progress but none of the idiotic signings our American friend is pulling out of the hat
RFL - Dragging their feet again. |

Don't tease us....heard from where???
BTW....you forgot to mention that the new CEO is in his 2nd stint in that role, the coach is untried/untested at this level, the players on offer are all crumbs from the table and the guy with his hands on the purse strings is the same bloke who drove us down this farcical route. If DH controls finances at the club I predict more of the same come September 2014/Feb 2015  |

Seriously what's the actual state of London right now?
1. Has a ground been sorted for next year
2. Do you have a financial backer
3. Are Rea and Gus still holding their positions
4. Are the RFL offering any special dispensations for London
5. Will London be competitive or are we flogging two dead horses

I think the game could show some genuine goodwill towards London here. It will be interesting to see how other clubs react as London will obviously be on the lookout for loan players. One from a number of SL clubs may go some way to at least help them bring a squad together.
SL clubs could also benefit from seeing a young fringe first teamer get a season of SL under their belt.

That might be difficult for him to answer. Perhaps in his favourite pub, on his 14th pint, someone whispered it all in his ear? The face looked familiar but he just can't quite put a name to the face.

These points are all valid and troubling if the rumours are true. But you are assuming that the rumours are true. Of course anything is possible with David Hughes at the helm. But I would wait till I got confirmation from a credible source before jumping to any conclusions. |

The NRL has refused to register former NZ Warriors' prop Russell Packer's registration with Newcastle Knights. However[i if[/i Russell Packer can win his court case, which involves criminal charges of assault, he would be available for Super League in 2014. That means that he could be available for London Broncos.
[iIn making the decision to knock back Packer's registration, NRL chief operating officer Jim Doyle said his organisation had found enough evidence of behavioural breaches.
"We will always respect the court process and, if the only facts in question are those before the court, then clearly we will ordinarily wait for them to be resolved," Doyle said in a statement on Friday.
"We have also been clear that we will always act on any information that demonstrates behaviour which is contrary to the interests, welfare and image of the NRL.
"While we make no inference in relation to the charges that Russell is facing, our Integrity Unit has reported conduct that leaves us with little choice other than to refuse the application for registration."[/i
