| On this membership lark, is there any point in joining in February as it appears to me that with only one game scheduled, a 'member' would pay more that someone paying on the gate against Salford?

I'm inclined to agree, I can see there are a few games on the fixture list that I know I won't be able to make so I think I'll be back to being a walk up punter for the first time in a number of seasons.

That's a very good point actually, I presume the month runs from first calendar day to last calendar day of month regardless of when you start as well, so if you sign-up mid-Feb you pay for all of Feb, or they'd have to pro-rata the payments during the off-season?
Personally it's not worth me signing-up to a full membership, the 3 hour plus round trip is pushing things a bit now, so I'll miss more games. I didn't make all the games in my ST for the last few seasons but renewed because with parking and kids thrown in it was still decent value even if I only got to 8 or 9 games. It may or may not be worth getting a Hive Membership, but as I will have to pick and choose my games I may be better off waiting to see what discounting gets chucked about once any initial buzz dies down (there was a big buzz when we moved to The Stoop, but I'm not getting that vibe given how far backwards we've gone since then, without wishing to be a doom monger this seems like deciding to keep the life support going on a terminal patient).

Broncos assuming 15 games (including challenge cup - probably showing my ignorance here ,would also include any home friendlies).'"
Might be worth someone checking the Challenge Cup. As this money seems to go to Barnet, and we have to pay a share of any CC gate to the RFL and the opposition, I'm not sure it would be included. Unless of course the RFL are mandating it again for the round we enter at. As the free away tickets for kids seem to have gone that may be a dangerous presumption. Hopefully that one, subject to a home draw, is still there. If it is just the league games the savings start getting a little skinny unless you take advantages of the bolt ons or really value a reserved seat.

No, that's not what I suggested at all.
Fans of the club will attend games, which is expected, but it is you happily marching towards a TK Membership, grinning from ear to ear whilst handing over the cash for your 12 month membership (or you'll pay the joining fee again) like nothing has happened, that will make Gus et al feel justified in the way they have messed with the club, the business and the fans.
As many have said, 'we've moved and there's SFA we can de about it"......but to BLINDLY ACCEPT this new order is to condone the shocking way in which friends, colleagues and other members of the club staff have been treated, not to mention the total and utter disregard for the fans.
If you are asked to swallow and do so with a smile on your face, don't be surprised when the desert course arrives and it's brown!

| Is Gutters the only one to see that the Emperors new attire is in the buff?
Well said that man. I will of course will continue support the team but with no illusions as to the path we are on currently.

Same for wife, son and I. Cost and time involved means we'll pick and choose games rather than go to all and probably do some away games which are not that much further than the trip to London.

Where in any of my threads did I say I was going to get a membership deal?
Who says I am blindly accepting?
So if I turn up and pay to watch my team play then I am playing in to Gus's cunning plan! Whats that plan? folk watching London Broncos rugby league play rugby league.
so what are you suggesting? that I don't go because Gus is, well you decide what he is?
Tell you what we will go with your suggested plan of not condoning the club management way of doing things by not turning up! result no fans at all! result no club!
So am interested what you think! support the club or don't support em?
