| Quote orangeman="orangeman"As we head for the 4th month of the season, it would seem that all emphasis has switched from "self sufficiency in 2026" to "let's say nothing and hopefully we can start again next year"
Ticket prices have already been adjusted "downwards", but there appears to be little activity to attract new fans.
Social media, be that Facebook, Twitter of the club site is a shambles, with little if any relevant and up to date information available. Match reports appear 2 days after the game, whilst score updates during games are either sporadic or piggy-backed off the opponents sites. Links on the club website are either broken or incorrect, with even the new ticketing prices not updated and the "wire frame" of the site itself is amateur.
The average number of likes the club get to a tweet is 31 this season....our facebook page is infeected with trolls offering snide links and our email system is ignored.
This is just 4 months since David Hughes said .yet the silence is deafening.
So the question is, what is going on at the London Broncos RLFC?
Yes rapidly becoming a complete mess off the field as opposed to on it - although as you say still a lot to do there as well. I’ve said before and I think it may be true we have a one man back room staff and he leaves in a few days. Complete silence could be the new norm. Hardly a relaunch is it?
The drop in likes on Twitter tells a story of customer disengagement and the fact the club no longer prune the almost entirely negative comments on recent posts tells a story about club disengagement. With apologies to the guy on the other forum who spotted it,and just to add to the grimness of it all, check out the game day/platinum lounge tab and see what game is being touted there. It makes the Bradford/York banner fiasco look positively competent.
Bearing in mind how complicated it is to buy a ticket for the Bradford game 250 is not a bad result. But where from there? I think we have only 4 home games in 4 months and one of those is a Friday night game. I’m no mystic Meg but attendance at that will be terrible. How can you build momentum on that even if we were semi competent.
If we get through this I think the club will be stronger because it’s in a right state at the minute and things do look very bad. Skolars season starts soon and we’ll be able to assess the damage we have done to them.

To follow up, I've always hoped/prayed that the club would sort itself out.
After seeing the shambles we are, added to being banned on SM (for asking questions like why is there no programmes/what is the actual team) I think the club deserves all ot gets ow. Any hope/sympathy is long gone for me. My only interaction is the odd look on here.
Let's be honest, it's not even a PT club, its runike a pub team. Shameful really

If Danny Ward gets the Leeds job then surely Hughes will admit he's lost the plot

Did we let Ward go, or did he actually foresee/was told what was coming and wanted out??

He told them he was leaving at the end of the season, but then Hughes threw a fit and sacked him on the spot. But yes he was not going to stay for 2022. I'm guessing he did not want to go PT, and why should he. |

To get back to the original question, bugger all from what I can see.

What a heart breaking decline for a once great club. Hughes is totally responsible for this for allowing himself to have a greater than thou know it all attitude and aided and abetted by a lobster and a monkey

The exact same thing is going on that we have seen in the past so no surprise with where we find ourselves.. The club really needed to step up to make a success of this move but has failed to do so. Hughes is diabolical owner. Yes he seems to have some money and a love the game but is clearly clueless on how to run the club and incapable of recruiting someone suitable to do it. He has turned us from SL playoff regulars with almost sustainable crowd numbers into a club that will be lucky to survive in Championship.

Gus Mackay's appointment, the name reverting back and subsequent move to the hive can be seen as key moments, but Loubser has been in place now for nearly a decade.
Yes, Hughes is a truly awful owner, but he is not alone in being culpable......one rat has already left the sinking ship and you wonder how long it'll be before Loubser follows suit. |

If the ship sinks, & that looks favourite, the Lobster will of course be in his element. |
