So. Facebook has a post from loverugbyleague.com claiming that the London Broncos squad contains 11 players with international experience.
The ensuing comments poke fun at this poor attempt at turd polishing and a certain "Jimmy Milner" pipes in with a snide retort to a poster.....
......is it really acceptable for the head of commercial of a professional sports side flying the flag for the sport in the south to be trawling the internet looking for scraps?
Maybe they should fit an alcohol lock to his computer

Just hope None of our players, ever visit this forum! IF I'd been selected for my Country, I would be proud of that honour, however a few may knock it! Be proud Guys!

Which ever way you polish it there is a lack of quality in the Broncos sqad.

I'm polishing Nothing! just stating Fact! about 9 players, okay you seem to not rate recognition being as an International, that's your opinionL I disagree!.

It's 100% turd polishing, but that wasn't the point.
I've no doubt that curious dons fans will be in awe of Slough Born Mike Greenhalgh having played for the Philippines once and never above the third tier in any other competitions

if you become an international in a pro sport whilst playing part time, then it calls into question the validity of that sports international depth.


Again. To the point of the thread........Should the club be picking fights on social media?

Probably safer for them than in the bar!

Even if it were full of polish internationals !

Faux righteous indignation as a distraction from the subject, followed by an opinion as to the worth of a single Philippines RL cap, followed by a crass Joke again sweeping the subject matter away.....
....apologists gotta do what they do I suppose

Just seen this. One for Orangeman
Pleased to share that I am starting a new role as social media manager @LondonBroncosRL, It’s something I’m very excited about as it’s a great opportunity with a great community based club!

#BackTheBroncos

Is this from a volunteer ?

Good for you.
I've no doubt you'll do a fantastic job, starting with the un-banning of anyone the commerical dickwad felt unworthy.
Word to the wise though.......before you appoint the club as "a great community based one", I'd see how the community react to the invitation.

Either you or I have the wrong end of the stick Orange. It's somebody called Jamie Hume that is claiming to be Broncos Social Media person. WQ's post said he'd seen that on Twitter or elsewhere not that it was him but I might be wrong.

Aha....that's what I get for scanning my phone before my morning coffee......Welcome Jamie. I hope your enthusiasm for all things Football and Ipswich Town can be transferred to the niche sport of Rugby League south of the Thames

First Job Jamie. get the website up to date......

........and as I've mentioned, remove the ban on posters commenting or even viewing content. That level of censorship and overreach has caused irreparable damage to the relationship between club and fans

Its certainly not me!!

Indeed........a glance at Linked in shows we have employed someone with oodles of experience

Including shop assistant at Sainsbury's west Ealing and event waiter/bartender/host at corp hospo evets....and gt a load of th web page for his last sports position....

F.F.S.

Oh dear, that's not encouraging but no great surprise i suppose. Clearly we are fishing in a puddle not a pond anymore.

You seem surprised. I would love to know how the appointment came about. I'm pretty sure it wouldn't have been advertised and put out to the market.
Who is he the son mate of!!!

I suspect he may be a volunteer. This sort of role is very competitive and any sensibly paid role would attract people with a lot of volunteer experience. This is probably his foot in the door.

One example, the bloke who does the social media images for Dulwich Hamlet has recently been hired by Liverpool FC to do similar work for them.

Credit to whoever realised the club needed help in this area.

Lets be honest, he has a very low bar to climb. Looking at the clubs social media before he was hired, a 4 year old could do better, so I'm optimistic that it will improve, lets be honest how could he make it any worse than it is at the moment?

Unfortunately he will do as he is told!! Only one person in charge of all that and we know who that is!!

That sounds about right to me. We needed one. We’ve got one. Let’s see how it goes.

Will the Dons provide the match day announcer or will the drunk from last season be reinstalled??

The latter I hope. He was a highlight. Suspect he may be playing fullback though.

Too be fair, watching the team last year would have driven anyone to drink.
