Thus far and forgive me if I have missed any, we have had:

No need for a name change - Bad choice of name - Terrible Club Crest – Terrible choice of Colours – Boring Shirt Design – clunky ordering of shirts and other gear – they don’t deliver to New Zealand (sorry about that Gus) – Free for all seating – lack of communication – no pictures of some of the new players – no meet and greet before the season starts – boring leisure wear designs – beta website – little news on the sponsorship front - On the road games - OTRG too far away from the Stoop.................

.....Feel free to add anything I may have missed....I am sure there is plenty, but I have to say I can't recall ever seeing so much negativity in our little corner of RLFANS.COM.

Welcome Quins Kitties born 02.04.09 - Purdo - Determined, loveable with a "can-do" attitude. A born leader. Louie - Big, white and fluffy. A very noisy prop forward. Harley- Cute and gorgeous (just like our no.9) Well, I couldn't call her Chad, could I? Update on Quins Mogs :- Purdo - deffo leader amongst Mogs. The Capo. Louie - turned out to be more like Louie Spence than LMS. Re-named Judas. Harley - Cute but not as gorgeous as our no.9. Oh well, at least I haven't got a Willy.:simpsons/017.jpg



No there's definitely been this amount of negativity before, Gutters. Message boards thrive on negativity and this one isn't any different (and gawd knows we've had more than most to be negative about).

Thing that gets me is that there was beginning to be signs of positivity on here (I guess due to the improvement in quality of the team and the fact that some fans were pleased that we've dropped the Quins tag). Now, the old scepticism and gloom seems to be descending on us (well me, anyway).

I think I'm right in sayng we're the only club who haven't announced their squad numbers, and yet the numbers had to be given to the RFL by the first week in Jan (so Rob Powell said).

I bet we're the only club not having any sort of pre-season do (and we were probably the only one not to have an end of season do either!). Christ, how difficult would it be to have a simple intro to the players on the press day (just their names and numbers would suffice then a quick beer and we all bog off home).

Do hope the new broom that has swept clean, hasn't swept the heart and soul out of this club.

I'm not going to judge until the season starts. Not only the team but the club as a whole.

Fully agree Not Quins anymore! what a disastrous decision than never worked!

Yes everything is not perfect bit read other board and every club experiences the same problems it is the post Christmas blues, for me I will give them a chance and see what happens in the next few weeks.

Well I am positive and can't wait for season to start.

I like the logo and the tops. Start simple and clean (and add a V next season). I think the seating will encourage fans to be closer together and improved atmos at the Stoop.

I have no problems with the website at the moment as long as a new news item comes up every other day.

Don't care about the sponsorship as long as there is one on the shirt and the kit has a proper press conference.

Am concerned they said there would be an 'event' for the naming of the captain and that has disappeared...

Happy the team has improved!

Roll on the new season.

No shirt sponsor...that gets me. I won't buy the shirt until that is sorted - otherwise it just looks like an overly price polo shirt.

I mean.....London 2012 - get them to sponsor it!! Even if it's just one season. Jesh..

Get the local Chiswick brewery Fullers to sponsor it.
RL is full of 'big hits' so have the word 'HIT' under 'Fullers'

'Fullers HIT'. It'll look lovely.

London 2012 won't sponsor Broncos, the Olympics don't even recognise Rugby League (true story).

Bloody hell! This forum is doom and gloom before a play the ball has been made. Some reasons, I'll agree with and other I don't.

Rather than sit slating every move the club makes, why not do something about it? Bradford Bulls have a Supporters Trust that is called the "Bullbuilder". The aim of the Bullbuilder is to invest in the academy levels of their club but also "to build a conduit between the club and the fans with the understanding that we are not here to run or publicly criticise the club" as their website says.

Why not introduce BISA or LIST, Broncos Independent Supporters Association or London RL Independent Supporters Trust and try and build a link between the club and the fans. For example;

* The Supporters Trust is in charge of all new flag suggestions and money collections.
* If you want a meet the players evening, organise a venue (if the club won't accomadate the event) and ask the club if they're willing to send a few players.
* Organise a "Meet the Manager" evening, if logistics can be met.
* Try and organise a few meetings a year between the Trust's commitee members and its members and non-members to raise any issues and then organise, if possible, a meeting with the committee members and someone involved with the running of the club and voice the concerns, queries etc.
* Help with away travel.
* Help with fundraising towards London Rugby League etc.

Rather than sit and be keyboard bashing doom merchants, get involved, this is your club.
