If the support is bad now what is it going to be like when they move to Plough Lane. They said 2000 fans was not sustainable at Harlequins. How can 200 to 300 fans be sustainable at Plough Lane.

To be honest if the club finally does die a death of a thousand cuts then I think the carcass should be left to rot. Have found plenty of other things to do during lockdown so not likely to follow any phoenix team.

I have followed the LONDON CLUB since I was in my teensl even though born in St Helens and still live nearby and went to the first game at Fulham, also Big West Ham Supporter:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_1649.jpg

We will have to rise up again! I introduced a few new fans here in the last few weeks I had got to know! looking forward to Plough Lane, but after reading a few threads here, they decided they would give this site a Miss! no wonder, if you have had enough of the Club, then just disappear, no one will ever be missed! I just can't understand why some hang around still if they are that cheesed off!

I have been disappointed at times, but I would never let it get to me like some! if I can put up with West Ham since I was aged 6, and the three clowns running The Hammers, I can stand anything!

Wish all those leaving who have found other interests the best or those fed up, it was not worth putting any investment into publicity in currently at Trailfinders, I find the place depressing!

Do you set the standard for life or supporting a club? You won't be missed sadly seems to be the mantra for the club. Now we are down to the last 300. Do you see what happens when you slowly chip away at the 'ones and twos' who won't be missed??

I am a member of the Original Supporters Group. The LBSA , which was somewhat disrespectfully cast aside by the Broncos in favour of the Monkey Club.

25 years as a loyal supporter home an away, support we have given is no longer required as nor are we. The monkey has a lot to answer for.

Alas, although this group raised funds and sponsors the Academy Side, those in power decided to create a clique that they could control. Monitoring and barring people from Social Media channels if they dared disagree with anything the club and it's poundland oligarch owner decided, this new supporters group and the actions of those that control it has seen the core supporters of the club drift away.
I have a database of about 100 Broncos fans who travelled away to Wales and Wakefield in 2009......fewer than a dozen of them still attend games.

That's the reality of the "Club that Dave Built"....we get fewer fans than London Skolars!

As an arrogant pr**k myself, I am in awe of how the owner can show his face as he presides over the demise of the club to the extent that we have 250 people wandering around a wedding venue when less than a decade ago we had 3,600 fans watch us play Wigan in a proper Rugby Stadium. He's alienated 3 landlords inside 8 years and there's nothing pointing to him not doing it again south of the River. He clings to the ideal of a "Barcelona" type club with multiple teams playing multiple sports and when the going gets tough, he allows himself to be steered by people who shouldn't be in charge of anything, let alone his substantial annual investment.
Wimbledon FC care not a jot for what game we play...they just want the rent and he'll pay it because 200 or so fans won't cover the wages of a steward, let alone the matchday costs.

For the first time in over a decade I'm planning a trip to London that won't involve visiting the club to catch a game and spending a few hundred quid in the shop. I'd have considered myself a fervent (vocal/opinionated) and loyal supporter, but not any more.

As for starting another supporters group, we've done that and like everything else that wasn't Dave or his Minions idea, it's been ignored (or in this case, badly copied).

Aah Barcelona, they are what about €320m in debt to other clubs & banks. Could Dave the Phantom Menace be trying to out Barcelona, Barcelona?

Lon "Dons" Broncos...the Barcelona saff of the river innit..... icon_biggrin.gif

Just checked the UK government guidelines for open air events and supporters. 50% capacity of Trailfinders is 2,000....even if you go full pedant and say "seated only", then we're still permitted 1,100 fans at games. The lack of any effort to even get close to that is shocking and I for one think that they'll struggle to get more than 500 to Wimbledon as an average in 2022.

The collection of WAGS and hanger-ons at games is about 50 people, so the reality that fewer than 200 paid to get in on Sunday should be a sackable offence for someone

Clearly the plan is a repeat of 1980. Put a rugby league team in a football stadium & watch the footy fans give it a go.

Of course Broncos aren't new unlike Fulham & the team has little profile, personalities or experience unlike Fulham. Broncos don't have Harry Genders or Reg Bowden unlike Fulham. Will all end in tears, sadly just like Fulham.

Just hope & Trust it never happens in any of our Lifetime!

We should have had Our Own Home & Ground by now! Rather than The RFL investing in a big hole in the ground in Yorkshire, it should have been London! The RFL HQ in London, A Centre of Excellence! as well as our home! but no they were not interested!

Even my home town St Helens moving from Knowsley Road to The Totally Wicked Stadium LOL didn't bring in bigger numbers in attendance! in fact, they lost around 2,000. same with Wigan from Central Park!

We are the same. Followed the club since the first days at Charlton, We have taken our kids and now take our grandson to games.

We feel the same that we are somewhat, surplus to requirements. I have been told previously by someone at the club that they do not really need fans.

I would say that we attend games mainly to see the friends that we have made over the years. Though quite of them have not turned up this season.

It is a sad situation of the clubs making !
