Maidstone's support fell badly in the Kent County League and was ok rather than brilliant, understandably, during their years groundsharing in other towns. The current owners stepped in to save the club and have invested heavily, they openly state they view it as an investment in the long run and are happy to lose money short term.
The real difference between the Stones and Broncos is one has owners who are running it as a business, viewing losses to date as necessary in order to ensure a return. The the other is London Broncos.
Quote: Bostwick "I saw them play a Central Park and there were not many there and then at Bourne Park which is behind Central Park and there were even less.
Now Central Park Sittingbourne would suit The Broncos, its just a bi too far out of the way.'"
Princes Park Dartford and you'd be talking a ground that would suit Broncos.

I seem to remember some of the funding for Princes Park was aided by the fact rugby league was going to be played there. Not long after opening, possibly one game even, someone decided it was too expensive to open the stadium up for Kent Ravens. The rest is history.
I've visited Dartford just once and that was enough. Delayed about 3 hours on return by an overturned caravan on M25. And it's a bit far to cycle from Wiltshire.
