| In many respects Clubb is just reflecting the feelings of many of on here. However, it beggars belief that the management allows such views to be expressed and then doesn't make a response.

| Management? Do you have any evidence that there is management at London Broncos? We have a right to know!

| Did he accept club captain to look good on his CV. Send him to Hemel until he is sold I dont want to see him in a London jersey again. The team should remember they are a bunch of losers because most of them dont care enough to work hard and change things. They are paid whether they play on the park or not. I think Soward has played more minutes of rugby than most of the team and he has only been here a few weeks. Oh for a team of players with his work ethic. Clubbs sick of losing how does he think we have felt over the last four seasons and we actually pay to attend not the other way round.

| He has the IQ of a Goldfish and is just an average squad player whose limited `talents` are in decline, injuries are also becoming more common limiting his appearances (was it just the three knock-ons he made on Sheffields try line?). He has zero `Captain` quality or potential. If the rumours are true he has been offered a lot more money from one of our competitors (I bet he can`t believe his luck) and this is more likely the driver with his urgency to leave. He`s a busted flush, get some money for him, let him leave and move on.

| Message to our Captain and in deed the Club..........(no pun intended)
I am also sick and tired of losing, drives me mad, though remain positive and soldier on, because that's what you have to do, London against the World.
Every week, spending serious amounts of money travelling 90 minutes to a home game, then every other week, up north for a Friday game, day off work, Hotel for the night, Train ticket, match ticket, HAVE YOU ANY IDEA WHAT THAT TAKES TO DO, AS WELL AS THE TRAVEL TIME INVOLVED AFTER WE HAVE LOST.
SHAME ON YOU FOR THE COMMENTS, AND THE CLUB FOR LACK OF COMMENTS.
We have to pay for the privilege to watch loser's
Maybe forgotten , went pre-season unbeaten,
Every Away game costs £150 easily, like a mug, Only missed two away trips (wakey & Cas) , I dread to think how much I spend over the season, I am going to Widnes Friday, already booked the trains/hotel to St. Helens in a few weeks, Bradford & Hull KR,
If we are bad, lets just show our weakness straight away and give in, time for the whole U19's to step in, Mr Soward, can lead them and teach them, that's what captains and leaders have to do, Step Up,
How do you think the likes of Skolars, first felt, losing every week, two games won some seasons, they just grinned and beared it, and DID THE RIGHT THING AND IMPROVED, WEEK ON WEEK.
Resign, leave, dual register, we need a leader in a crisis, time to re-select......
TIME FOR THE CLUB to actually talk about stuff and what is going on, enough of all this secrecy, WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER

| He wants to go? Fine. But if anyone wants to sign him then they need to pay a transfer fee. F*ck this 'release' nonsense!

... and blames Clubb's "management". Hope he's referring to Clubb's agent, not to himself and/or Gus. It is from the Daily Star though so we shouldn't expect too much in the way of terminological exactitude.

Come on TR, at least strip him of the captaincy. If you don't you will be guilty of 'poor management'!

Fixed now. Must learn not to put too much trust in the spell-checker.

| I'm sure Clubb is merely echoing the feelings of many of the first team squad - he's just the first to do so publicly.
Clubb as captain should be taking a degree of responsibility for constantly losing. It's all very well saying he's sick of it - what's he doing about it?
Part of the club's problem is a leadership vacuum, where senior players to my mind have not stepped up enough in guiding, and in some cases shielding, some of the younger guys. Did Gower do this, or did he just bawl people out if they didn't meet his standards?
If Clubb wants to leave, and wants to get paid more, he needs to bloody earn it. I've no sympathy for him, his predicament is merely one part of the wider malaise the club finds itself in. He was given a 5-year contract, which in itself is highly unusual, and he's never really stood out during that time as being deserving of higher wages or status.

| Clubb should look at Soward. Now he is a leader. No whinging, just gets on with trying to win! Now he would make a great captain. Oh hang on, he is the coach and the captain!

it's just a bad attitude. Would Danny Orr or Rob Purdham ever have openly said to anyone "I'm sick of losing" ?

| Hopefully the Origin III game will inspire the watching Broncos players who have made it down to the Walkabout pub in Shepherds Bush for their meet & greet. I'm stuck at work but listening to it on 2GB Sydney radio. Go the Blues!
