| In terms of building up a local fan base to make up for those lost on the way the following seem important to note:
No home games for 2 months. ( very difficult to see how this would work out as a good option in terms of crowd building or Championship survival during crucial 1st season in new ground)
Only one home game - a Friday nighter where our pants were pulled down during the very small window when we might be the only game in town.
No presence at the family day.
Only 6 more home games, 2 of which will be humiliating spankings at the hands of Rovers and Leigh respectively.
Halifax and Batley are likely to make difficult viewing as well as they chase playoffs.
I think our one chance to make a good impression has gone. Pretty sure we didnt get many/any of the big decisions right. We really have to learn from this- if we survive.

| But as Orange often points out BT, the Broncos never learn which is why we are where we are.
If they had adopted even 30% of the suggestions made on this forum by us, the club would be in a better position & lord knows we don't have all the answers just more that Hughes & his tame Lobster.

Hope the first doesn't happen, Big Time, and will say no more.
Funny old game, RL...and RLFans is stranger still: Leigh got a fantastic result uphill and down dale tonight and there's virtually no activity on our forum. Meanwhile another slap in the face for Broncos' fans sees a thread spinning out as fast as if from a fishing reel.
Really hope you survive (and get shut of undesirables) and not only for the selfish reason that Bongser wants something to read late at night.

| Jason Loubser - It’s always been our ambition to grow Rugby League across the region, and we hope our plans to host a one-off match each season in Kent can accelerate us fulfilling this objective.
I have never heard such b/s in all my time supporting this club.
I'd love to see the fag packet these objectives are written on.

| Lobster hasn't managed to grow it anywhere currently so not sure why he might think a game in Kent has any value. Lobsters are considered quite intelligent creatures, this one clearly is not.

The fag packet is with the other empty fag packet with the heading “ reasons why moving grounds is a smart thing to do at exactly the same time as going part time”. Possibly both under a big pile of team sheets for the Newcastle game they never got round to handing out!

One of the Ebbsfleet officials used to be employed by an NRL club, which is why they were so keen to host the match.'"
Just worked out that the guy in question is Damian Irvine. He has a decent RL admin pedigree and used to turn up on Rugby League BackChat quite a bit and made a lot of sense. He also did the commentary for one of our Our League games last season and although he struggled with the team sheet he made a decent stab at commentating and was insightful. Long story short, whilst this actual game makes no sense whatsoever, getting links with him might play out well in the long run as I think he knows what’s what and wouldn’t make the kind of crass mistakes we have been making recently.

Although, in fairness, some of the suggestions made on this forum for what the board should do have been anatomically impossible!

| That's why I limited it to just 30% BT.

There's a few of us that have (not many obviously) although it's not really an issue, most Eagles fans would be arriving at St Pancras or Kings Cross anyway, so it's quicker to Northfleet than Wimbledon from there anyway.
However, if you're staying over, and you've booked a non refundable hotel somewhere near SW London...

| If you want to pay the high speed supplement it's about 20 minutes from St Pancras to Ebbsfleet International. It looks like parking at Ebbsfleet station is about £7.00 - slightly cheaper if booked in advance
