I must admit the communication is bizarre, I live close to the hive and have received nothing, this is despite been on many rfl, super league databases and we'll within the catchment. What I have received is a flyer for hemel Hempstead staggs, as has my neighbour who is attending their next game, (a southerner, never seen a game in his life apart from the free premier sport offer for the world cup).... staggering, if the broncos don't sort it they will really buck this up, they can't rely on fans to look for themselves for survival.

I see the Broncos tweetmaster has made a rapid fire start to the day. Must be getting in practice for score updates later.

???

Quite. This morning I was told about a Broncos fan who is also a season ticket holder at Quins RU. He didn't attend three Quins games on the trot and received a call from them as they were concerned enough to check that he was ok.

In comparison I have been a season ticket holder at Broncos etc for the last twenty six years and have received nothing reminding me that there is a game on today let alone providing ticket details. While I know I can find out this information it does give the impression that they really don't give a monkeys whether I am there or not. If that is their attitude to a supporter of over quarter a century, I don't suppose communicating with potential fans is top of their agenda either.

The attitude to supporters is the reason a lot of them wont be there today. No communication of a game on today, no mail shots, if you dont have computer access you are stuffed. Roll on growing the crowds - our group of ten will be missing and I am sure a lot more supporters just will not bother to turn up, you can only take so much negativity about anything and you then give up yourself. The team has been negative and no effort for three season, back office is negative and DH and Gus are very negative in their forward thinking.

Does the simple enjoyment of 80 minutes of rugby not trump anything else.

Not when the future of the club is in the balance

and how does staying away help?

Where did I say stay away?
1246 for a season opener in a new stadium is a ing disgrace

You implied that anyone who says anything positive or it seems attends a home game is an apologist for the club which is a nonsense.

I make no apology for attending and supporting the players who gave their maximum for the fans.

For the record I agree with your criticism of the club management but your tone is grating and should be directed at the club and not at the supporters.

I had a thoroughly enjoyable 80 minutes at SW London Chargers who provided an excellent cup tie with Milford Marlins.
