The first might be a myth but the second is pretty true.

More tangential than anything else. But down south ultimately you need a top flight (and it needs to be strong) presence for everyone to aspire to. Otherwise the game will fade in and out as it has for the past 100 years.

Tomorrow I look forward to a really positive statement. Probably from people I'm meeting up with rather than the club but hey ho..

Nah.

You just need to look at the game in the midlands, the south west and the north east. Not a SL club in sight but still there are amateur clubs being created.

Ultimately grassroots expansion depends mostly on having development officers in place.

No news at all. announced 8 players leaving us and all well publicised.

Confirmed Sarginson leaving. And i can remember another six - Soward, Melling, Bryant, Howell, Randall and Dorn.

Announced that some big decisions would be made in next few weeks. Tony Rea made that comment. No sign of Gus or David Hughes.

And for next year:

Location - unknown

Squad - unknown

Season tickets - unknown

Normal seasons end really.

add Bailey and Lee to that list. Very telling that GM and DH did not address the crowd today. I would prepare for the worst!

They didn't mention Lee was leaving? I know it was rumoured, but I heard nothing of it today.

And from what i could tell DH wasn't even there today, he wasn't seen at all up where he usually sits. GM was there as usual though.

This is disgraceful, but not unexpected. What a way to treat supporters! Not a word of information about the future, despite the constant speculation as to what is going on. The management of this club is a scandal.
I have found enjoyment in watching amateur RL which contrasts vividly with the miserable experience of being a follower of the Broncos. Unleoss there is a change of management I wouldn't bother with this crap. I came away from the Chargers amateur games this afternoon full of joy at the whole experience, a complete contrast with the misery caused by the Broncos.

What a sad anticlimax after a reasonably good game with everyone leaving the ground knowing nothing about the future of the club other than telling the crowd which squad members are leaving. It just shows the utter contempt of the 'management' toward their few remaining fans.

Agreed I doubt I will be back next year other than selected games and I will not be renewing my season ticket. No end of season band, no party nothing. 15 years plus and never I have felt like today when I did not care it was the end of the season with the silence from the management saying everything how they see not only the few supporters left but also those players who have been part of the club. RIP LB

In all honesty, the club needs winding up completely. There is only one positive piece of history regarding the Broncos, 1999. That is the only positive spin the media attempt to make about the club. Otherwise it's a club associated with poor crowds and hammerings.

The club is so poorly run, the fans are last to know about anything and the dreaded M word.

Rubbish!

Who are the confirmed 8 that are leaving?

Dorn, Bailey, Sarginson, Soward, Melling, Randall, Bryant, Howell.

Did anyone notice the Broncos framed shirts in the bar had been taken down!

I heard yesterday that the Warder had applied for the Gloucester cricket CEO job but didnt get it-its a small world!!

The end of the year presentation was an impromptu affair as that was not supposed to have happened, incredibly!!

...and a brass band to see us through the door!!

Both the East and West stand bars, have had all the LB stuff removed and wall repainted.............the silence tells it all.......we just have to wait for the stage managed announcement, me thinks we are waiting for RFL to act

Wire, I also heard that rumour about glous, my mates missus is from stinky town and told me about it, thought it was wind up though.

No London Derby at HAC then in Jan/Feb....................ooooohhhhhhhhhhh

We would be so lucky it was true and he had got the job and then we could be shot of the waste of a salary the Warder is.

Oh for somebody like the Maranta's, but with staying ability. Dave H'S money and the Maranta football knowledge and a wish to stick around longer than flogging to somebody with more money than sense. We could be contenders, but with the present div in the CEO spot fat chance.

Its time for Match Room Sports aka Barry Hearn to enter the fray, shrewd man with mega contacts and he actually takes it on, head first style, a man with visions and a forward path view, this coming from me, who disliked at first.......

Lets face who would employ Gus given is non-record at LB. He will be lucky to find another job in sport.

Feel sure he is good at what he did originally! but his deluded obsession with The Olympic Stadium (what a white elephant) is a joke

Nearly as bigger joke as West Ham's crooked pursuit for it.

I'm not saying I agree with the move by my club, 56,000 is a lot of seats to fill, bit like us trying to fill Upton Park!
