Officially announced with no gestures...

And even a comment about season tickets. I hope the OTR games are announced with detailed before the STs are on sale.

I call this a cause for hope.

What a surprise. Happy to keep travelling down to The Stoop and am really, really hoping for a great season next year! C'mon you Broncos...

Sadly only 1 year

At least we know where we'll be playing! Now to work on how to turn the Stoop into a fortress with an atmosphere rather than it being the Twickenham Library!

With the OTR games, wouldn't one of them be earmarked for Gillingham? Follow up on last year's game during the Dragon's weekend thing, keep in touch with the RL interest that is in the area?

Frankly the success or otherwise of the Dragons shouldn't be down to a flying visit from the Broncos. The OTR games do NOTHING for the brand - all games should be at the Stoop and we should work work work to get people to them.

Agreed, and FWIW I don't think a flying visit will make a flying ****'s worth of difference to the Dragons, they seem to be doing OK on their own- but seeing as we're having 2 OTR games according to Gus, I thought it seemed reasonable to expect Gillingham to host one of them - we had our 3rd best gate there last season (not that that's much to crow about I know) and a better atmosphere than at most home games at the Stoop!

how is this news?

<awaiting incoming rant from the Land of the Long White Cloud>

The usual poorly organised handling of things from the club but still, here's to the Broncos in 2013

Seems to me that if we have to have OTR games, (I can only think that they are used as possible new venues) then Oxford's Kassam stadium for a double header with the new Oxford side. At least it would give them a boost. I would be happier if we said we were a London club and stayed in London!

Not sad! it makes complete sense, because if we fail to increase attendances next season at the stoop to at the very least 5,000 regularly, then we have one last throw of the dice in 2014 to move ground before the final nail in the coffin for Super League in London!

Complete rubbish, as usual. You think shifting the club to a completely different ground for one season will result in a magical surge in attendances and we will be given another license?

Gus et al should be hard at work on a TWO YEAR plan with an aim to develop The Stoop as a sustainable home. No ridiculous targets like those were laid out when the Broncos launched, but realistic aims and goals that the club can meet and show off to the RFL when it comes to the applications.

I could say the same to you Dave, Complete Rubbish!

All I am saying is. if next season we do not at least break that 5,000 figure then if we don't move then the final nail is in the coffin, if we do move for 2014 and increase attendances more than the stoop it may just give us a chance to show we can justify a licence.

It is you who is completely closed to the fact that the stoop may just never work again, if we get 6,000 plus every game at the stoop next season then Superb!

Of course the Oracle will come on when he wakes up and tell us about marketing, I think at the stoop now we are way past that saving us.

I see you ignored the second part of my post.
