I'm beginning to doubt the club will see the season out the way things are going.

The official statememt says this will allow a new coach time to plan for the 2022 season. So lets see how quickly a new coach is actually appointed and what sort of ambition that suggests for next season.

Or perhaps with no prospect of promotion DH is looking to cut his losses on this season.

That's kind of my point. If he has seen where the club is heading and wants out it shows that the club is going no where!!!
You wont get a better coach. You only had to look at the squad to see we had zero chance of promotion. What odds we replace Ward with someone already at the Club.
I'm just lost for words, the way those in charge have killed the club. All this a out Hughes being Londons saviour is nonsense. He has killed the club, and cost himself a fortune doing it

That's all anyone needs to know about London Broncos in two sentences.

Have to question who would want to coach us right now?

It will be the current assistant.

The ambition re the coaching appointment will match that of the squad.........zero

The assistant steps up. Experience being some midlands non team!

Sat here shaking my head.

Oh dear step forward Rob Powell!!!

I was hiding behind the sofa when I typed that. Just when you couldn't believe things could get any worse, Broncos excel themselves. If there was a league for dumb decisions, Broncos would win it by a mile.

Bring back Mac!

ML was on this forum and stated the big plans the club had, how everything would become clear re the direction the club are taking.

It would be a good idea for the club to come out and tell the couple of fans they still have what the intentions are, where are the club aiming. It's about time the club started acting like a professional entity, rather than just a plaything

Hughes could do alot worse than address the fans and explain what is going on re the club and its future

You need to join the Supporters club to hear that I suppose.

What a series of highs and lows following London Broncos is.

Whatever plans they had were pretty ed up ones.

And the current clowns make Gus look good.

Christ on a bike. What the absolute hell is going on at the club?
The only positive I can see at the moment is that Swinton are unlikely to win enough games to overtake us, so we should avoid the drop.
Hughes has no obligation to tell anyone what his plans are, but surely the penny has dropped and he can see the lack of interest and attendance at games points to the club being on the wrong trajectory.
Wimbledon won't happen. Why would he pay 200k so 250 fans can watch ab average team hurtle towards oblivion?
Who will want to coach this side? Anyone with eyes can see we're on death row both on and off the park, so will we get another Joey Grima type coach.......to go with our unqualified CEO and Commercial Manager?
Is this the end? Certainly feels like it.
I feel for the original supporters group who have stuck at it. The York game was/is for a trophy and a worthwhile cause, but will this impact on their fundraising? Are the club even aware or do they care about the trophy?
If Hughes has fired ward, it's further proof that he's lost his marbles......

Nothing is going on at the club thats the problem. ML are you happy now

Exactly.

The club without doubt need to address the fans. It is important that they try to salvage from this and informing clubs supporters of their intentions must be a priority.
What I am interested in is the way in which they communicate. If it is solely through the Official Supporters Group, As I am not a member, I will know that the club find my support surplus to requirements and I think I am done.
Well done ML, We have only followed the club to 25 years.

They dont give a toss. Total distain for the fans. Should hang their heads in shame for what they have done

I think that you are right Honkytonk. However the club are at the 'Last chance saloon' . I hope that they realise this.

The last 2 videos I've seen of the owner were 1. where he says Ealing is perfect and 2. When he basked in the glory of the Toronto win.

The harsh reality is that he will never admit he is wrong. NEVER. As such, He has killed the thing he tried to build.


Northern Bloke and others will come on here and say "without him we'd not have existed" but the reality is as a club we've not existed since about 2013.......he'd employed Gus, pi55ed off harlequins RU, spat his dummy, cost us our SL status by not sourcing a squad for 2014 until January 2014......all entirely of his own doing.

If he's refused to do as the RFL wanted in 2007/8 when IL bought Wigan, we'd still be at The Stoop, we'd still be in SL and we'd still have 4k fans, but he didn't....the narcissist in him got to own the club and he liked that so much he was never going to have anyone ever tell him how to run his club!

For 2 decades I've defended the club from Northern Fans citing imaginary payments and "special treatment". I've pointed out that they (mostly) play in hovels of stadiums or rented from soccer clubs, they've had 100+ years and attracting 6k is nowt to crow about and I've fiercely defended our right to play the game, but not any more. David Hughes has brought us to this point and I make no bones about pointing the finger of blame solely at him!

As for a "plan". There never was a plan. The Move to Wimbledon, like the reverting to the broncos name & the move to Barnet were designed to protect the wage thief at the club.....how the fark he ever got a job again in sports admin is a mystery, but he again didn't last long there.

So don't expect the CEO, Commercial Manager nor Club owner to give you the heads up, because there's no plan. The Academy is the only asset the club has and once we fold, the pathway will be lost to Union unless the RFL see the benefit and bankroll it. Surely a strong London pathway is more important than an extra yeard and a half on the oddslum pitch?

Sad news for London Broncos, hopefully my club Leigh Centurions will try and get him, but I doubt he would want to for this season, as it's a write off already.

Good to see we can agree on something finally! Until The RFL and Super League get their own house in order, I just can't see any support coming our way!

I have always rated the Huddersfield owner Ken Davey, who is overseeing the discussions with Super League & The RFL. In a long League Express interview yesterday, he hardly seemed to be able to answer one question fully, is that more a question about the state of the game itself? Ralph Rimmer has to go, We need someone strong at the top, if Super League and The RFL are going to join together once again.

Don't think Super League teams want a strong leader as I doubt they could stomach the changes needs to drag the game forward to the 21st century.
