Saw this news last night and felt absolutely nothing. Which would have been unthinkable maybe two years ago.

The chronic mismanagement of the club over the past few years has almost completely sucked out any enthusiasm I had for following the team on the pitch.

Even if we have a good season next year - I struggle to see how we come back from this and establish ourselves as a competetive Super League team. How many new or relapsed fans are the club going to be able to attract without top level footy to watch? without the likes of Wigan and Leeds visiting in a season. It is hard to picture.

From 8,000 fans turning up at the Stoop for Round 1, 2006 - to this. It's a sorry sorry tale and a collective failure of almost criminal proportions.

In fact, you corrected nothing because said poster did not say that and does not believe that. Instead you simply changed the subject to one which you felt allowed you to launch yet again onto one of your oft-repeated and thus boringly predictable rants.

Agreed. I remember how emotionally involved I felt at matches towards the end of one season at GP when relegation seemed a real possibility.

Now, I just feel disappointed but no more.

Spot on Pingu.

You would have to look very hard to find a club that has not been mismanaged at one time or another. Thing probably feel very low at the moment, but the club need your support now more than ever. All owners are simply looking after the club for a period of time, supporters should remain and see out a number of owners while doing so. Its a shame that owners have the ability to damage the whole structure of a club and send it crashing.
Please don't let go to your club

Lampyboy, agree with you totally, it is not the end of the world, we still have a full time Profesional Rugby League team in London, we will be playing a different opposition, but adversity in sport shows the mettle of the fans.
As I said in another thread, I remember the year when my life long team got promoted from div 2 to div 1 they had this little team as runners up in div 2, think they are still called Wigan.

Simple choice, watch rugby league or dont!

I think we all agree that the club needs to be run on a professional and sustainable basis and that a long-term plan needs to be followed.

However, like m1234 I'm just not understanding the notion that Championship rugby league is the end of the world. I'm looking forward to seeing some of the grand old names of the sport play the Broncos in 2015. I wouldn't be fussed if we spent 10 years in the Championship so long as the team was competitive and business wasn't run as a basket case.

I just wish the club would come out with some firm and positive plans for next year. Relegation seems to have kicked off a bout of worst case scenario and speccies are filling in the gaps in what we know with doom and gloom. This is understandable but ultimately destablising.

I have to agree with this, I have been braced for the Championship in 2015 from the start of this season. Surely only the maddest of optimists ( or Hollywood script writers!) would have thought we could avoid the drop? It might have been nice to get a win or two but I have found myself this season not having any expectation from the team and being surprised when we have played well, albeit in patches and earlier in the season.

Knowing that we are down I agree the sooner the club can get it's plans out for next season the better. Joe G is in place, Henderson has signed up which could be a great move for us at Championship level. If we can confirm we are staying at the Hive and not have all the nonsense we had last year after leaving the Stoop to play ?? . Sure it's not great being relegated this early in the year but did anyone else expect any different? Is it really going to be the end of the world? It's now all about getting things in place and having a decent pre-season to have a crack at 2015, maybe we can realistically be competitive if we get in some good signings? God knows it would be nice to have a decent season, can't remember us having had one of them for a while!

Good information coming out of the club will be vital. If they do have a plan let the fans know .Structure, recruitment and organisation at the top of the list, and all the help they can get from the fans.
I honestly think its a new start and one tha tcan provide the club with the stability it needs.
The best of luck and hope you can bounce back.

Cheers for the kind words lampyboy, it's been a tough few seasons to be a Broncos fan.

I hope I will be seeing a stronger London team in the very near future. I also hope the club can settle and attract some reasonable gates. I work in the south and have often wondered the best location and how to attract more fans. It seems to have been a major problem over the last few years.
