| Vote for the move to wimbledon over 90% yes, just need to get them to play a footy game in front of a crowd and get the move done.
Hopefully it can last the 10 years

| Quote: Bostwick "I believe that Tom Spencer was another player that wished to return to the North for personal reasons.
Not likely to wish to return to London, therefore.'"
It's a strange one why so many northern players can't manage to conduct their lives a couple of hundred miles from home but Aussie/Kiwi players manage perfectly well several thousand miles from home. Could be a good thesis for anyone doing a Sports Psychology degree there.

| Girlfriends, boyfriends, wives, families 200 miles away, a lot harder to cope with than being in a different hemisphere 12000 miles away.
Being in a place where its not possible to "pop" home for long weekend is much easier than being somewhere when you know its for 6 or 12 months.

| Tom was hoping for a contract offer, at the same time his girlfriend had an offer up north. She had to accept before Broncos made him an offer, if in deed they intended to.

Will always remember my first trip to Keighley in early 80s & meeting some very rough women. Would have put the fear of God into the Waffen SS let alone us soft Southerners.

Was it a vote of the full membership of the Trust? If so shows a rather apathetic attitude to the Broncos question as they say they have over 3000 members.
AFC must be counting on an attendance "bounce" returning to Merton as for season 2019/20 at Kingsmeadow they average 4316 in a 4850 capacity stadium. So they will need a huge increase to the average to service the debt which i think may be a struggle after the honeymoon period. If they are relegated, even more so but happy to be proved wrong. The Broncos money could be vital for them. As said elsewhere, can see no reason why AFC fans would turn up unless season ticket holders get a free ticket like 1980 Fulham as the team is a long way short of what Fulham introduced London to in 1980.
