Quote: Perry "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.'" You may know better but I get the impression that the "shower" who run the Broncos are more of an understaffed dribble. www.londonbroncosrl.com/broncos-staff/ 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

Can't argue with that thinking Orient.

3 years at Ealing! A 3 year deal FFS!

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

So how do any of us know if under hill was or was not looked at and rejected for what ever reason?

How many is that we will have built/refurbished over the years and across the metropolis!

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.

Nah mate its me not reading the post properly melf was saying why don't they look at dismantling the stand and moving it, I get that now

Because yet again it's a short term deal, and in 3 years time, if we still exist,we will no doubt up sticks and move to an even smaller venue which will be hailed as a great deal and then do the same again. Are we buying in here? Doesn't look like it if it's only 3 years does it? The decline of the club continues apace!

Onwards and downwards

Mickey its noble of you to remain positive but even you can surely see the decline. Its that bad Steve the comms man removes you from the Broncos Facebook page if you post negatively!! Get Corbyn in I say.

Henry Paul, Scott Hill, Dorny, Marty, Tommy, playing at a state of the art Rugby ground against Melbourne, Warrington, Leeds........ compared to.........

Are you starting to see where most are coming from? Fosters in a can at a BBQ is OK, but cold beer sold in a glass in a nice pub with a great group of friends and music must be better, maybe not hey!!

So let's all be totally negative about everything then.
I agree it's not ideal far from it, but what are other options at the moment.
The club have to re structure, we are in effect re building from the bottom.
What would I prefer, personally best years for me were Brentford, but it's not to be, it's not a case of being noble, it's a realisation that the club has to cut costs and generate an income. At the hive we have no income at all apart from Mr Hughes. So its 3 years, is that not better than a 2 or 1 year deal?? Would the news we had bought the set up been better of course it would but that's not happened.

The basic point is, you, me, gutters, bronc are not in a position to do anything about it, we don't have the money or influence.
So we can wallow in self pity or we can get on with supporting the club.

Supporting the club and raising concern, let's even call it debate, on a website are two completely different things, aren't they?
