Unfortunately DH has the uncanny knack of making the wrong decision at every juncture.....but then again he has been taking advice from Stevo over the years so it is to be expected. DH has been the saviour and the downfall of the club. The right decision would have been to walk away at the end of last season, then with the success of the World Cup still in mind (it`s all relative GF), the RFL might have been able to do more to help and there might have been an outside chance of a new investor. IMO our current situation is doing more harm than good to the future of RL down south and just reaffirms to the wider audience that RL in London at SL level is a lost cause.......our performance on and off the field ensures that no new investment/owner will be forthcoming. The club is finished.

On the upside......I cancelled my LB/Hive membership yesterday so feeling quite positive icon_smile.gif

Long live the Fulham-London Crusaders-Broncos Harley-Quids Broncos (again) RLFC!:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_22268.jpg



I think we all realise London RL wasn't ready for SL (some of us knew it from the get go), still we've had some fun, a trip to Wembley, finishing 2nd, beating Canberra etc.

I don't mind following a Championship level club, it's what I did before and I'll do it again!

I agree, I was listening to a Stockport soccer fan on the radio the other day, and it made me think that Broncos fans don't half like to look for an excuse to turn their back on the club. It's a sports club, they're often badly run for periods. We're fans, so tough luck and get on with supporting the team.

Spectator sport is entertainment not a vocation.

For most people at least.

i think the issue is - will we have a Championship Club? Is David Hughes committed to fund for another year, and what level of funding does the next tier down get?

On David Hughes - as everyone has said - he has kept the Club alive and for that he deserves thanks. For almost everything else he is a disaster. I am with Gutterfax on most of what he says. David Hughes has consistently made the wrong decision - particularly on coaches! i know Brian McD was not everyone's first choice but his period in charge now looks like a golden era!

i admit, i was one of those who believed we might surprise a few people this year, and i was prepared to give the Club the benefit of the doubt - but the performances have gone steadily downhill and apart from Matt Cook we offer almost nothing in defence or attack - its awful and depressing. Having said that i will be at the Stade Gilbert Brutus this weekend and will be there for all the remaining home games, hoping for a miracle, and i will start buying a euromillions ticket...................................................

I doubt Hughes will hang around, this year he was persuded to put out a club to fulfil fixtures, he's found a way of doing it, that isn't costing him anything.

a014.gif The Squad is run on Sky TV monies only!

Next year, we are either kept going by a supporters group/lottery winner or we reform at Ch1 (again, 'prolly down to a supporter or group of supporters).

The other scenario is we split, follow Skolars or Hemel instead, which, without a dedicated group or super-saviour is the most likely outcome. h025.gif
