With the Three Stooges still running the show this was always going to be an uphill battle.

Quote: Southern Reiver "Question what can we, including yourself, actually do to change the current situation?'"

The question is a loaded one now, as well you know it.
Ask the question years ago and you get plenty of suggestions, but given this is the last year of the club as a 100% professional entity before the slipper slope to CH1 level footie, you'll get a shrug of the shoulders and "not a lot"

That said, I won't stop bemoaning the clusterf**k that some seem happy to watch. They'll sheepishly file past St David of the Hughes on home match days, thankful his eminence is prepared to fork out 80k a ticket for 13 home games this year and you'll applaud the sending of an email like it's the invention of the wheel. Uncle Tony Rea will be patted on the back "for trying" whilst the landlord will me thanked for taking us in. All the while, one of the major architects in our downfall will be shifting about not standing in the one spot for too long and stealing another 12 months salary.

My negativity gets me down for Christ sake, but I'd say I am 100% saner than anyone who tries to glean an ounce of positivity form anything the club is doing on or off the park.

Rooster? I will hold my tongue when dealing with most apologists, but you have become more of a joke than I could ever hope to be. Your a sniping idiot who offers nothing other than to stalk me and tell us when we've nearly, but just missed a signing"....asking me a question isn't feeding anything!
As for my ego........The Auckland 9's was created and pushed by 2 of the biggest egotistical gobes I have ever met in my career......if my ego is so abhorrent to you, stick to running water for the reserves buddy, because it's the way to market the game...successfully!

Last year Junior ticket price £30 for the whole season plus free entry to all away games. As I said the membership pricing this year is a rip off.

U19s

I would suggest that you could open the doors for anyone to come in free and you'd still have plenty of spare seats and standing room at the Hive.

I believe that 30 quid last year would have got a junior to all 27 games if they so desired....home and AWAY! The intransigence surrounding the way ticketing is delivered at the Hive is just another indication of how far we had fallen before the RFL paid AK to take us in this year. London Broncos have no say over the pricing of tickets to London Broncos games........it truly is as if the lunatics have taken over the asylum.....which I am afraid to say, is no laughing matter icon_twisted.gif

1. Apologist?
2. sniping? You don't?
3. Stalk? (followed by an incorrect snipe)
4. Irrelevant comment on two people involved in Auckland 9s
5. snipe about running water in reserves LOL


Thing is you think I think you're dumb or something, which I don't. Your constant snipes have gone way beyond tedium. That's all

I actually saw a job and thought of you the other day, but it's on the south island. Seriously!!!

1. Sorry. I have the mother of all hangovers and am sunburnt to buggery for good measure. I didn't meant to launch into you like that......2 days of copious beer consumption doesn't make up for lack of sun cream apparently! icon_twisted.gif
2. Tedium is an understatement, but until anything changes, it will continue......and nothing looks like it has changed.
3. Have a job thanks and the Boss is a really decent fella.......and the south island RL don't need me to come along and bang their heads together, they need an ex-NRL Kiwi....someone who they can look up to and who can get them all to unite. They are proving the most awkward of the 7 regions in the reorganisation that was started a few years back......

Nope....but the free away tickets for Kids did encourage a fair few away fans to visit the stoop, whereas if they'd had to pay for them, they would have stayed away.

I can see from the input of our new soccernista posters here that there is little understanding of the core differences between fans of fall over wendyball and Rugby League. icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif

I have no doubt that the wildly successful ticketing and marketing strategy at the Hive will deliver fans in their thousands to the Hive this year.........the SOLD OUT signs will be up by Thursday this week no doubt d040.gif

Lots of free away fans is good?

To summarise:
S'aright, you've got the 'ump with me like I get with you. I think we are both equally frustrated with the club but in different ways and we have different personalities and views which means I will find something you say annoying and vice versa. Like when the season starts and people will say things about what happens on the pitch without knowing facts and I pipe up and offer alternatives (not always correct ones obviously) but alternatives nonetheless.

On the 9s. A lot of NRL clubs didn't take it as seriously as the NRL would have liked. The NRL asked that teams put in marquee players and had to have one of their top 5 paid players in each squad. The fact that you had two 40 odd year olds and a club's head coach not bothering to go sort of sums it up. But it was still and enjoyable and successful event.

God you are a strange one aren't you? You seem to think that the "bring a mate" campaign currently at the tail of every communication from the RFL guy seconded to the club is the work of a crack team of media geniuses locked away for a strategic planning weekend.
What you fail to understand is that there are now les than 200 season ticket holders/members and another 300 or so hard core fans left....and they have all brought mates, brothers, parents, kids, kids mates, kids mates parents to games. In 2012 these fans were to be rewarded for "bringing mates" as part of their ST allowances......less than 5% did.

So no, it's not No fans No Broncos. Your lord and master has been given some cash with which to market the game to the locals......not just to try and flog RL to 300,000 kids the local council paid him to let them come and see his facility.

No Marketing = No fans = No Broncos.........the Marketing bit is down to you and your precious owner. Remind me again how brilliant he has been at that so far?


BTW, I said free "away" kids....they bring full price paying adults with them and it is the same across ALL superleague clubs! If you're going to attempt spin, at least put some effort into it c020.gif

Conveniently ignoring the cash the hive have been given to market the RL aren't we? Is the plan to drag the RL average gate down to the level of the highly popular and marketable Barnet FC?
