| Perry and Mickey have said it.
Yes we know what's wrong, No we don't have the money to change it, even if I did have that kind of cash would I be prepared to spend it on the venture?? I guess it would depend on just how much cash I had.

And before you chip away at me to ask do I go to games the answer is yes I do and travel many hours to do so and I also do occasional away games.'"
itsmeagain,
I never chip away at Cowgirl or WireQuin? who I have the utmost respect for peoplem but I have very little respect for those who feel they have to hide under various aliases! and forget how they once bragged constantly how they had an hot line to the club, then all of a sudden became negative? and just now spout out the same rhetoric over and over again, and love to create negativity.
Many of us have been around since that first game at Fulham v Wigan, and stayed loyal to the club through thick and thin, just like fans did at such as Huyton RLFC, what is sad is this forum has so few now who post, while such as the clubs Facebook page has many more now, there is debate but no bitterness!

Just a thought that came to me. There is an unwanted 1200 capacity demountable seated stand at underhill. It was going to be bought by Southport and moved up to theiron ground but the transport costs are to high and you can't get grants on second hand stands. Is it worth Broncos looking into it?
At the moment it's for the scrap heap as no one wants it. Swap out the orange seats and I would've thought it ideal for your immediate needs

An excellent suggestion mel. Which is almost certainly why the club won't look into it.
You've seen the shower that 'run' the Broncos, they couldn't run a bath.

| Sadly, I have to agree with Perry again. In fact there's been quite a few stadiums going through a dismantling process so there's seating and terracing aplenty for those who can be bothered to organise the logistics!

There has even not been a designated chief exec. for the past year or so.

| Given the gimp that last occupied that position it might not be such a bad thing.

| It's all getting a bit squiffy on this board for me, but could I add to the crap,
With my logical head on, will we have to play games on a Sunday, for the early part of the season, not to clash with Ealing home games, as there season will overlap ours, as we start, Union is on back straight till around May,or will have some really glorious double header games on a Saturday in February to May ish, take a look at Ealing fixture list, would like a double header with leeds Carnegie, a certain Rhino and GB and England legend will play for them next season,
Sorry to put more crap in the fire, but it must be looked at

| What's wrong with a 3 year deal? Is it not better than getting to end of the season and starting the merry go round again?
Not sure how much they actually know, but as I said on page 1 of this thread, a local in Ealing who has links in the rugby world did talk about ealing and there expansion plans, could be true, could be utter tosh, this was before our involvement was ever mentioned.
If we are going in there with the chance of developing the ground then what's the problem, is this not what everyone has always said we need

Underhill was sold for development so well out of any realistic budget. The council didn't seem to keen on having professional sport there in the form of football so may not have been too keen either.
