We were staying 4 miles away in Feltham. Plenty of people asked who we were and had some interest in us and the game, but most hadn't even heard of London Broncos, despite knowing of the Stoop, Twickenham and Harlequins etc...

Quote: Bonzo "Our turnout was pretty poor? Maybe you should look a little closer to home before criticising the numbers visiting clubs bring. That trolling idiot was on last week asking if we were bringing 5 taxis - well we brought 4 buses and a then some. It's unfortunate that one could've been led to believe that it was the London fans that had come on the buses, there were so few there and it was their home game.'"


I'm assuming you can read - given that you can type. Pretty sure I did 'look a little closer to home'

Quote: Gazemous "
London really need to sort their promotion out close to home. Of course none of this is new, and they are hampered by being so far away from London, but after five full seasons at the Stoop, nothing much seems to have changed in getting the locals (20k in the immediate area) interested.'"



How can you be far away from London when you are in London?

He's probably of the thought that the West End, Oxford St and Westminster is London.

I'm trying to take this from a northerner's point of view. As in, the Stoop is not within easy commuting distance of everyone in London.

I live in South West London (as is The Stoop) and it takes me over an hour to get to The Stoop whether I'm taking public transport, cycling or driving. So targeting people in north, east or south London is not as sensible a marketing strategy as trying to attract those on your doorstep. That is my point.

You said we had a poor following. I didn't think it was bad given the distances involved and the fact it was on a Saturday. I assume people in Twickenham and surrounding areas can read too - so why don't your club provide them with some posters or leaflets to indulge themselves with?

We defo need to target Richmond and Hounslow boroughs much more that we do. that's for sure - most places in London takes around an hour to get to - if that makes sense (its a big place and the traffic is dreadful...)

You did have a poor following
We always have a poor following

the two things are completely separate issues - apart from showing a general malaise in the sport

Broncos should be doing a whole lot more than it currently does to attract a crowd.

Your first point's pretty subjective. With the best will in the world, your second one isn't.

Quote: "Walking to the ground from the train station, I didn't see a single person going the same direction as me. There were no clues anywhere in the surrounding area that a game was on. It was like walking through the streets of Townville rather than an affluent suburb of the capital city with two sizeable stadiums.
'"


A village fete in Cas is a big event, maybe not so in London. Do you see the difference?

You're comparing a London Broncos match to a village fete?

To be honest, I find it ridiculous that my fellow Broncos fans on here are mocking Castleford's away support. We are the last club to mock someone for lack of support. To be honest, if it wasn't for the Cas fans, there would have been very little atmosphere in the ground. It took until the second half before our supporters decided to open their mouths .

Behave.

The team you support doesn't change this sad fact

I look forward to seeing you bring as many to Cas and hearing them make as much noise later in the year...
