Quote="brian2"i think this is all very sad. Gus may or may not be the worst CEO ever for Quins/Broncos - or the whole of sport. Surely the real point is we as a team have been rubbish for the past 4 seasons or so. We barely win a home game and on top of that we havent got a history to rely on? I became a season ticket holder at Hull in 1964 - was 10/11. We won, i think 2x at home. We were hopeless.
but we still got 2000/4000 because people remembered the glory days of the 1950's grandads took sons who took their kids. There was a tradition. i started taking my son to Broncos in 1999 (cup year). He doesnt live in Engalnd anymore - but is still passionate about them and about RL in general. But we havent got many of them.
i am as depressed and fed up as anyone about where the club is going i dont understand David Hughes' but without him we would have been buried a long time ago. I dont understand Gus - but he hasnt had much to work with. i dont understand Tony Rea - why do we seem so badly set up at times? i know nothing of marketing/adveritising etc so cannot comment though i previously have supported Gutterfax's ideas. if i won the Euromillions i would put money in. if we had 10,000 crowds and could do a Portsmouth (were i currently live) i would chip in my couple of thousand - but we dont
what i do know is when we win, and i see us win or even when we play really well and lose - it makes my weekend better. i feel happier and go to work on Monday feeling better about the world.
i will be at feathersone, i will be at every home game i can and (stupidly, unless its Gillingham) will renew my season ticket next year if we survive. Becuase i am a SUPPORTER, and thats what supporters do. I pray it gets better, i fear it wont, but until we finally die i will support.
then its Catalan and Lanquedoc and lots of red wine........................................'"
The most sense I have read on this forum in some time
I’m quite looking forward to the game in a curious way. I’m intrigued as to firstly how we will go against a "lower" grade team (albeit a good one), how the tactics will vary between the teams(and if we will change our) and finally what the difference in fitness levels will be.
A blow out wouldn't be a surprise neither would a close loss- strange
And yes i am looking forward to the game - would be good if it was a warm day. i would hope for a comfortable win, but i always hope that.........................
I watched Doncaster-Featherstone on Premier Sports the other day and Fev looked like a good outfit, full of players with smart rugby league brains but bodies that worked a little slower.
I expect that they'll almost match us down the middle - Ellis will provide good service out of 9 and ex-Bradford prop Steve Crossley looks like he'll make yards - but we really should be much much pacier out wide. We just have to be sensible when and from where we push the ball laterally.
