third wouldn't be our best finish.

Ha! No need for the edit.Still amazed that he is playing for his local team, and for free......If this fairytale has happened, hopefully the survival of London Bronocos isn't too far fetched. Fingers crossed.

The only non-profitable business that Barry Hearn has is Leyton Orient and he does that through a labour of love. There is no way Barry Hearn will be involved in the running of the London Broncos, he'd be more than happy to take rent though.

Not even that.

The club owe him money through loans (which unlike Hughes he'll expect to be repaid) and he uses the stadium as a base for his Matchroom organisation.

He's certainly no mug & would eat Gus for breakfast.

Wrong.

As far as I know, the club runs at a loss and he covers that loss with his own money, non-expectant of repayment.

Also, Matchroom work out of Brentwood, not Orient. I've worked at/with both parties and they're separate.

But he would eat Gus for breakfast, right?
