so no news until 2013 then

The club don't care what the supporters think.....under David Hughes they have never cared. He rules the club with an Iron fist and he is 100% entitled to, but the failure to address problems both on and ofgf the park mean that when he goes......and he will do eventually, there will be no interested parties to take his place.
Sub 2k gate v Widnes IMO....

Not sure anyone can understand or even defend why the review is taking so long! only answer still no one to take over but would it not be better putting someone like Gower in charge, unless he has said no, just temporary?

With Powell being appointed against the advice of the RFL and now this seeming non-review, David Hughes seems to be demonstrating the bloody-minded 'I know better than anyone else' attitude that so blighted the club when Roy 'if I don't get my own way I'm shutting it down' Close was owner. The move back to Crystal Palace which nearly finished us off was also against RFL advice!

There has been no review.

Who is qualified to review the fitness, quality of coaching & youth development on the board?

No one. It hasnt happened.

Good rugby people who want to be around London Broncos should be nurtured and developed, not thrown to the wolves the minute things go wrong.
But that does not mean that the team which is massively under performing, and I don't just mean the defeats but the manner of many of them, doesnt need to sort itself out and bring in people who can save the situation.
This season is over so start building for next year.
Bring in a coach looking to build something, even if its just a rep for himself before moving to a proper ( and I chose my word carefully) club.

Wire, don't you think that this is the true nature of Phil Bailey's role? I've pinged him as the reviewer.

I'm with wire quin...the review was just a soundbite to placate the fed-up fans and those in the media that are scratching their heads as to how we can be this bad.

Re the Coach issue, it is entirely possible that DH either doesn't want to spend any more of his money replacing the coaching staff or simply hasn't got the money available to do so. Having spent so much money on the first team, he probably wasn't budgeting to have to fork out anouther £200,000 or so. I feel for him...he is the biggest supporter of RL in London without a doubt.

Rammo-Say it as many times as you want. That is not what he is there for.

He has contacts for recruitment- ie the new Tony Rae. Nothing more nothing less

Dan-Throw in the wages of the Aussie prop we couldnt use.

I eagerly look forward to more of the Bailey clan joining the club in an entirely transparent manner.

Indeed. The Hickey debacle hasn't exactly helped our situation this year or our recruitment for 2013. Would you come and join a club with hardly any fans, money, staff or players?! I blimmin wouldn't. I'd only come here for a nice holiday in London (which it seems some of the have!)

Who would have had to have been paid off if he was on a contract.

Exactomundo, Boosty. Felt sorry for him though...he was at every game like a spare doodah at a wedding.

Would've liked to have seen how he went...lost a load of weight but still looked enormous!
