Yes, you will and a kick as well. Genuinely delighted for you!

cunning plan, get fev to completely underestimate us



I'm afraid though London will probably tire after 60 mins, and you will push the score out to 30+, but still getting some points will help get some optimism back

Well run club Rovers ,been building for a few years. To keep up with them in first half. Is a good effort. Think our interchanges are not on same level and as others have said suspect we’ll tire but a decent effort. Note of caution IIRC Swinton did this a lot last year and still dropped down so we’ll need to get a win sometime but may give us something to build on.

Interestingly our site makes no mention of the score - it’s like they’ve had to go out and left the responsibility to others to articulate what, I suspect is the most important event of the week RL wise for the club. Very odd way to go about their business.

12-6 HT very respectable score

We've scored twice!

...and converted twice. Come on!

Why could they not perform like this in the match that mattered last week

30-12 FT seems like a reasonable performance. Maybe something to build on

lots of potential positives, but still 0-4 is the only statistic that really matters

The conditions would have turned it into a slugfest. Non the less a decent effort in difficult circumstances. Think we'd all have settled for that scoreline before the game.

Losing by 3 converted tries is nothing to be proud of but, on the face of it a decent performance from the team against a fine side. Coach and team should take something from that. However the idea that the club can just kind of say look it’s a Saturday we’re busy find out what’s going on from the Rovers website is stunning. It’s just not professional. What happens if I drag my backside across London from the City on the Friday we are playing Newcastle can I expect the doors to be closed because it’s not a Sunday? We really do need to step up now off the field as well as on.

If you consider that we have done a little better away than at home, if that's possible with 4 defeats, then playing in black at Fax & Red at Fev let's dump the blue & yellow now.

The blue kit was a fiasco......part of what monkey "tried to achieve" i assume


Not sure if there's a plan for 2023, but no doubt it'll involve closer ties with the community and doddery Dave saying he's in it for the long run

Everyone hates the blue kit but I think it was a legitimate choice by the club to relate a feel good factor for the AFC fans. That seems OK to me....it’s all the other stuff...

Before deciding on the kit, why not ask yourselves how many Fulham/Charlton/quins/Brentford/Barnet/ Ealing fans cared what colours we wore when at theirs? Hughes hated the tie in with quins yet they are the one era from which we seem to have retained some stragglers from....
...the blue kit was a shameless effort to sell some shirts....the lack of anything to welcome dons fans to our first home game shows that

And of course the unavailability of the kit at PL for any fans AFC or otherwise to buy if they so choose is mystifying. Anyway....

If they are not going to use the facilities at PL (ie the fans zone, street food etc), then why move in the first place. York game they have to try and put some effort in fan engagement

This isn't a defence of Mr Hughes (obviously), but I absolutely hated the tie in with Quins too.

You’re not wrong. It’s speculate to accumulate. So now is the time for the club to gamble. They need to give it a go for York or the default is what? “Come see the Broncos we are bottom of the table and the lowest scorers in the league but if you don’t have anything else on come along you can buy a sausage roll or hot dog for 4 pound 50p and sit in a decent small stadium and see us lose to a mediocre over hyped side.”

Think, at least on the field, there were positives to seize upon (just look at the title of this thread), and you scored more and got closer at Fev than did Leigh a fortnight ago.
Browsing a couple of monster threads on here late last night enlightened this poster on the origins of your present plight and whilst, as a Leyther, he would always want you to upset Fev, he was rooting doubly for you today. Been through it at Leigh, been through it at Bolton Wanderers as well.
Good luck for the rest of the season - save in two of the games!

Alas. The reality was that the majority of fans were ok with it until Hughes and his selections of back room staff stuffed the deal up and dragged the club into the gutters of Barnet.....we lost maybe 50 die hard league fans and replaced them with quins fans when we became quinsRL.....good stadium, great matchday experience to start with, aftermatch bands, good event games.....effort being made....now Hughes refers to Barnet and Ealing as non league or 2nd tier grounds as he continues his vanity project.
Still haven't had an answer to the RL question. If we reverted back to broncos because kids thought RL meant Rugby Lessons, which dick bought our current url and what idiot paid for it?
No joined up thinking = more of the same disasters.

Good to see a twitter post from journalist Huw Richards who covered the Broncos back in the day with good effect.

Yes otherwise it’s radio silence from LB. It’s possible that we have concluded that losing isn’t a good way to draw in new fans so every time we do, from now on, we are just not going to mention it on the site or Twitter feed and see if we can get away with it. A better plan would be to win a few games but it’s not the worst idea we’ve had.

Perhaps Broncos are waiting for the Ladies to get under way. They probably will win more games.
