| Three of them would make more noise than us. Feel like most of us now just turn up for the last rights. What exactly is left to cheer about. Oh I suppose Buck and Dusty now having the sponsored kit snd the stock being in the shop is a positive.

| If the report is correct about the amount of Wakefield fans (and to me there looked a fair number) then it is time David Hughes took a long hard look at the way things are going. I think wantawin could be correct about Easter Seems to me that all staff including the team need a rocket up them they are letting DH down, they are letting fans down, they are letting sponsors down and more importantly they are letting themselves down.

| How well was the game promoted by the Broncos.?
Were the locals aware that the game was taking place who was playing and theKO time?
How well was the London sporting public as whole aware of the game taking place?

| Maybe Broncos fans should all sit in the West Stand? It would help build a siege mentality & put to bed the away fan debate in one fell swoop.

200-300 would be realistic, but they made more noise than the London fans, which isn't exactly a shock.

| 1887 at the Stoop for the visit of a well known club when there were 434 of us at the Racecourse to watch a pre-season friendly between Crusaders and Coventry says a lot to me.

What does it say?
There isn't a lot that could be done. No sane business person will want to take over the club in the current state and you cannot blame them for that and there is no way the fans could takeover the club due it not being a viable long term proposal. The only way fans of this club could run their own club would be to have a team at Crusaders' level, I just don't see the small band of fans having the cash to sustain Super League rugby.

1649_1338292262.jpg 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 |

| The club tried advertising okay press not right asking people to look at a website! but there was the radio advertising as well. I really feel we are coming to the end of the road, is it even worth finishing off the licence period next season or is that the Final throw of the dice with another venue in London!
When you approach The Stoop all you see advertised when passing driving is Harlequins RU! our identity is a token gesture! to go along with what facilities we now have left at the stoop which are our own.
Whatever marketing you do now is pointless because if they come once on yesterday's performance they will not come again! it is only the few die hards that are left that will keep turning up!
The Wakefield supporters was Never a thousand even someone I spoke with from Yorkshire Radio said around 300, yes they did make some noise, for me our Lawndon is dreary! perhaps it sends the players to sleep?
As far as dropping down like Crusaders I hardly see the point there is London Skolars and I never see them going further! no it has been a great journey from that first match a Fulham, lets go out with some dignity when we can at least still get a 1,000! For me the end of the Broncos will be the end of rugby league for me, I enjoy my football more these days even though we are struggling under Big Sam! there is at least an atmosphere!

Largely due to the close proximity to all the other 'local' clubs. Its like a home game for most of them. There used to be a real buzz around The Stoop for away fans, and they would travel in numbers. No more, most know its going to be a one sided, souless affair, why waste their money on a 400 mile round trip (and that includes home fans too). Most of the hardcore Broncos fans don't live a stones throw from The Stoop and many are thinking the same as away fans, one sided, souless, pointless (literally !!).
