Quote: jaybs "Kappa is a major kit supplier'"


Kappa has revenues of €111,000,000.

Jako turns over €75,000,000

adidas are somewhat bigger with US$19,530,000,000....only one of these is a Major Kit Supplier!

Kappa are a nice supplier to have and some of our younger and more lithe supporters will look good in their training wear....but let's not kid ourselves.

Really sad......in fact inconsolable about what has been done to the club I support. What makes it worse is the lemmings that are left.....64 season tickets sold at the forum. You'll be lucky to double that all year!

Lemmings have a 4-5 year population cycle, so time for an upswing in numbers. We've moved from a kit supplier with revenue of 75 mill to one with 111, moving up. Positivity abounds.

Interesting. Do you really support the Club/team? in the last 2/3 years under your thousand and one guises, i havent read a single positive comment about anything to do with the Club/team?


Thats a strange kind of support! And i am not saying everything is marvellous/all in the garden is rosy - it very clearly is not. The club has been appallingly run, but it is deeply boring to have the same sentiments/statements regurgitated on every single thread....

The fact of the matter is we as a club are now buying kit from a brokerage firm who represent a number of small manufacturers. I didn't say anything negative about this deal other than "my fuller figure" wouldn't look so good in some of the Kappa Leisure wear.
Unfortunately, the club apologist and resident grass Jaybs then chipped in with a pop about non-existent negativity and a false claim that Kappa are a Major Player......they are not...as I showed with facts and you think this makes me a 'sad person"
As for me saying anything positive about the club, feel free to list all those instances when I should have been positive? Maybe when we moved to the Hive? Maybe when we returned to the Broncos name? maybe when we made the cup semi-final (only to be humiliated)? Maybe our proud record of never finishing bottom until it mattered? Maybe the 3 to 4,000 fans that have been jettisoned in the name of one mans obsession? Maybe when we were relegated or possibly the mid table performances of the team this year? Maybe enthusiastic Joey Grima, described as a good sort but totally out of his depth was something I should have "whooped and hollared" about.

By the way, in the last 3 seasons in SL we won 13 from 81 games (16%), conceding an average of 38 points a game scoring 19 and were watched by 2,105 per game....maybe given that I had predicted this demise and had constantly told the club, the owner and the RFL what was going to happen, then maybe I should have been happy and posted something personally positive but believe me, I take no pleasure in being right.

731 was the average attendance at the Hive this year....the lowest of the top 24 professional sides in Europe. Maybe I should post something positive about that too?

One definition of support (PROVE)
C1 to ​help to show something to be ​true:
These ​figures support my ​argument.
You can't make a ​statement like that without any supporting ​documentation.

The ​majority of ​people in the ​town ​strongly support the ​plans to ​build a new ​school.
I ​think it's ​important to support ​local ​businesses by ​buying ​locally"

in answer to the question using example 1 and 2 no he does not support the team.

Thats my drone over with

I am sure the core support that is left have nothing but 100% dedication to the side and want them to win all the time....and I applaud that. What I don't applaud is cheering on the team and "Not" Letting the owner know he's a horses ass! Turning up and paying money is your choice, but it's a decision that fewer and fewer people have taken over the tenure of Hughes and as such, he's fair game!
BTW....I will purchase a replica shirt (and probably one for my kids and wife too) next year when I am back, but no flipping way will I part with 80 notes for a polo shirt and a key ring....does that make me less of a "supporter' of the club that a ST holder?
I'm looking forward to catching a game or 2 at Ealing when I am back.......and chances are I'll have to pay a score per ticket on the gate....does that make me less of a supporter than you?
Supporting the club doesn't mean I have to applaud or even accept the way it is run as a business. Remember Michael, I have already pointed out glaring errors in the new "business plan" devised by the dynamic duo in charge of the club.....when it unravels I'll AGAIN be in a position to say I told you so and AGAIN I will be shouted down by those who accept their lot.......the lemmings, the pathetic Patrol (12-14 people in a Patrol I believe) the DH worshippers or whatever name I bestow on them at the time are not at fault for supporting their club, but the manner in which they do it is pathetic.

Changling Like you many if not all of the Patrol are members, and active members at that, of the LBSA. If you're looking for the embodiment of people who are one eyed supporters of the team but also rightly critical of the Club when necessary it is the LBSA. I believe that people in the Club realise they have to play the long game; live in the community and build a "Broncos Way". I honestly believe that the LBSA is a crucial element of that, and many of the Patrol will be playing their full part in that. They also have the right to be balm pots sometimes!

Oh Lord Gutterfax, please bestow your benevolence upon us.
Or alternatively get yourself a life and stop trolling on here. Though given what a sad obnoxious man you are, I can understand why nobody would want to socialise with you.

Weird comment.........are you aware of my social circle or are you just guessing and projecting your own sad existence onto someone else to make yourself feel better?

No idea, for other clubs the replica shirt is 70-75 euros on their site.
