The club is NOT finished...

It wasn't finished when Fulham went belly-up, nor when the resurrected Fulham disintegrated, it didn't fold when the Crusaders sputtered and it won't dissapear when Hughes throws in the towel, it'll just become summat else.

Clearly Hughes has been persuaded to keep a constituent "Ghost" Club going to fulfil fixtures, after which I have no doubt he'll wash his hands of it. It'll be down to the supporters association or other like-minded individuals to see if anything can be salvaged from the (I was going to say wreckage, but I fear there won't be any) flotsam and jetsum, lmao!

It'll be up to us remaining fans to decide what to do, do some start a new entity and the rest follow, or will too many of us go up to Hemel or over to Skolars?

Who knows maybe a West London Phoenix and a South London club are what we need, 4 small clubs, building up rivalries and competition amongst ourselves.

Hughes...Am I really suppossed to say thanks for a slow-motion train crash??

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.

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.
