I do not know if it will be too late in the season but at the end of July, the olympic Road goes through Richmond,Twickenham ,Hampton Court Teddington even out to Surrey.On the 1st August, the Olympic time trial is based solely around Hampton Court, heading out to Weybridge, Esher,Surbiton,kingston and Teddington.Broncos have two home games soon after these events at home.
Surely this is the perfect time to go out leafleting.When the test event was on, even at Hampton Court Bridge there must have been around 2000 people.On the route down to my house it was full of local people watching the event.The time trial heads through Kingston market square.Get Buck And Dusty down there targeting families who have gone out to watch.Offer them a family ticket for a tenner.The football season will be in its break then so plenty of possible customers.All they have to do is have a team walking amongst the crowds.

Unbelievable. I was asking if people could try and restart something the club have done away with in the past. That is all. The intention was positive. We all know they didn't want help in the past, but that doesn't mean the question can't be asked again.

Now read this line again.
[ihelp implement the things mentioned like door drops and other bits that can be marketed around locally as suggested[/i
Do you realise that I was referring to YOUR suggestions!


You then come on talking about you and what you wouldn't be doing and how you wouldn't be offering your services, gratis. You believe this is all about having a pop at you. Yet all that was said to you is that this isn't about you. You continue to go on about it being a waste of time. Yet I was talking about one of your suggestions.

You follow this up by even suggesting that the club are in the toilet because they haven't listened to you [iGod knows they've had over 10 years of ignoring me and look how that's panned out[/i

Do you think you are alone, when you say this?
[iI have actually got off my harris and done stuff for the club[/i


I'll leave it be now. See you on the NRL forum where I agree with you a lot of the time.

Sponsoring players was a way of really feeling a connection not only to the club, but the team also. Though I think back in the day it used to only cost about 100-200 odd quid. 400-800 odd sounds like it may be priced out too much. But like you say, between 8 of you... though I'd hate to see the fight over who gets the jersey.

It's a players shirt.....not many on here could squeeze into a players shirt

What we do know for a fact is that every other marketing ploy implemented by the club HASN'T worked, but even my arrogance has it's limits, so all I will say is that "we'll never know"

It is so easy to feel there is only "me" helping the club, and having that attitude, we can all be guilty at times, but there must be many of us! who have and do everything we possibly can to assist the club. I sponsored 6 players shirts and various match balls, and also supported the academy side with sponsorship, in the early days there was a great response to any contact and several ideas were taken up and several contacts connected with the club, but that seemed to disappear around 4 years back, why I don't know?
