I doubt it. Frankly the relationship between a fair chunk of the few remaining fans and the club, particularly Gus, is so toxic I wouldn't call a forum in their shoes. (That's not knocking any fans, I'm in that group.)

Truth be told I'm a believer in actions not words. Unfortunately we aren't seeing much in the way of actions to inspire confidence either.

Whether the club would like to call a forum or not they should realise that existing fans are the most likely route to increased attendances. While some on here are critical of the club at present these are the exact same people who are the first to drag new people along to games. Of course, over the past couple of seasons there has been little to inspire us to do this and the break down of any communication with fans would now be very difficult to repair by the current management. If the club had brought fans along with them on the journey things could have been different but it seems the management weren't up to facing any criticism from those who care most about the club. This is the sort of attitude that will ultimately kill the club.

I met Gus on the tube in the middle of last season and he promised that there would be a forum in the near future.

I won't be going anywhere near the Broncos whilst Gus is involved. Like the OP says, the announcement should have been the trigger to a set of prepared activities. As it is, the corpse of the Broncos has just been embalmed and made up to lie in state for a final season - this is not even the final twitch.

This is the worst outcome for me - the same clowns dragging out the final act until there are fewer than 100 interested speccies left come the end of 2014.

Let me guess.

It's 2 weeks away.

Gus isn't involved though.

That's the problem.

Apart from flogging overpriced curry what exactly does he do?

Important we have a forum asap - new palayers etc etc

Somebody in the RFL is marketing games in london, I have received 4 today promoting the Skolars/Wigan game!

But they could not do it for the London/Skolars game.....how predictable.

I think the Capital Challenge is organised by, marketed and ran by the Skolars. Not sure what the RFL would be doing marketing that, surely?

It that is true not sure how they have got hold of my email then other than through the RFL ticketing or dare I say LB? Four emails arrived at different time throughout the day promoting the wigan game.

I get Rihnos emails as a result of buying an RLWC ticket online despite neither living in Yorkshire nor being a Rhinos fan.

after 10 days of silence since our "re-birth" I thought I'd do a little digging as to what we can expect from the Marketing Machine at the Hive.
