Andrew Henderson insists he is committed to London Broncos regrowth

So assume we are all going to lambast hendo for going against his word?

Shame it's not on the club web site announcing this though.
TBH am not that surprised he has gone up there, be interesting to know what deal he was offered with regards to the position. Jamie Langley quids on to step up!!!!
Wonder if he is going to try and take some of the players up there, it's not unusual if he did.

Been on there since midday.

Opportunities come along for us all during our lives and as we only get one run at this, it's unfair to have a pop at someone for jumping at what is essentially, a promotion with the chance of furthering their career.
He was committed at the time that me insisted he was......he didn't lie, just the circumstances changing means he is off to face a new challenge.

Good luck to the fella I say and thanks for bringing some sanity and calm to what was becoming a laughing stock of a club after the MacKay, Powell and Grima appointments!

You would think that Steve Price wanted an assistant with experience of the British game. Warrington would have seen just the other week first hand, how Hendos team play and were obviously impressed.
I am surprised that Lee Briers remains at the club, I thought they may have wanted a fresh start. We shall see if he lasts.
For Hendo the chance of getting the top job in a couple of years must have been an attraction. It may come sooner if Prices wife gets homesick and drags him home to Aus early.
Anyway I cannot blame him for taking this opportunity, he has earned it.

Never mind that, sunshine. If the rumours surrounding DH prove to be true it might be your time to shine

What are the rumours??

My time to shine was a decade ago.

Not sure where the rumour started, but it is said that DH is considering his position as our backer. He wobbled after the hammering by Wigan in the cup in 2013 and that was close to being the end of us....if he walks now then that's it for us as a full time entity and as such I would say C1 beckons

The rumour is apparently someone (a broncos fan) was told by 'The Game Caller' (bradford freelance journalist) yesterday.

The Game Caller was pretty "hit and miss' when it came to reporting the shenanigans at Odsal over the last few years which pointed to him not being the most reliable font of knowledge....how he'd be aware of DH's intentions would be a mystery.
Still, no smoke without fire I suppose.

But what of those potential investors who were deterred by DH's presence?

It's not just DH's presence that is a putting them off, but also the uncertainty of what the League will look like in future, licensing etc, not to mention that they were interested when we were in SL.
If there is to be a return to Licensing I would expect them (and others) to express their interest.

So what do we think the criteria for franchise will be?

Youth set up, attendance, ground, team performance, finances (debts etc)?? I'm not sure
just being "London" will be that beneficial if we are a part time club playing I front of 400 people in a "pimped up"park
