Given the lack of likes or retweets the Twitter avenue is about as much use as a chocolate teaspoon on its own, but they blew their budget on the standard and metro adverts and have not the foggiest idea of how to get new folk in.
Remember. We had close to 5k when Hughes took over......

| Quote: BigTime "Imagine what next year looks like if we stay up. More of the same? Who can face that but many of the current squad are on 2 year contracts and unlikely to be poached I think.
If we go down one final throw of the dice or club folding. By no means guaranteed we’d go up either. Surely we wouldn’t play out of Plough Lane though. A total shambles. Wonder what Man of Kent thinks. Or Northern Bloke or the old stagers who’ve left the scene like PC Plum. Really desperate times.'"
IF we stay up??

Sadly the standard of performance at Leigh is very reminiscent of what was dished up v Widnes.

| I do have to ask. Do you think that the RFL have any concerns regarding the future of the London Broncos ?
I wonder if they have been in contact with the club. It would have been difficult, I know, being that the CEO has been on holiday..
Surely the Broncos folding,. Which we all can see is a possibility. Would be bad for the sport.
Although some might welcome it.

On the OurLeague commentary, John Duffy as co-commenter was joking around saying that he thought our jerseys resembled Warrington kit so closely he thought he'd come to the wrong game!! True though and just awful colours for us.

I hope that the London snr management was not watching, or they will ban him from Facebook and Twitter

| 2 RL Clubs in London...1 is a professional side that used to ply its trade in the top flight, the other is a Pub Side made up of Ex-Pat Aussies passing through London on their travels. I suspect Belushi's get a bigger bang for their sponsorship buck than any of the Broncos....
Nice spot Orange. Minor thing but really indicative of where we are. I know many had issues with ML but I remain of the view it was just him basically doing everything behind house. Without re-hashing the debate on what he did, now he’s gone we are reduced to winging it on even the most basic things (anything do to with match day and sponsors should probably be seen as quite important IMHO) NB no blame attached to the SM volunteer who appears to have been just doing his best to fill gaps and give out some info for fans in a vacuum.
I dont know if you saw the Feed but someone posted in terms that it was a bit Mickey Mouse and someone actually had a pop back asking what did he want whistles and bells (in terms). I’d have thought the fact we retweeted the Leigh line up page - all nice and professional, might have been a pointer to the standard required.

| The twitter feed was fine. Yes, we have no graphics of players with sponsors logos etc, but when we're not scoring, it really matters little.
My point was that The Hoists make a bloody effort. Yes, it is a social club and yes they do have a lot of fun doing it, but one of them took the time to put together a graphic. Their match reports are always good with a player of the day announced.....I couldn't tell you who was player of the day at any of the home Broncos games this year and I suspect unless you were in the gold lounge, neither could you.
That's the point.
We have a Kit man, so that's that sorted for this weekends game
We have a commercial manager, so match day sponsorship should be OK
We don't have a marketing bod, but we do have a volunteer manning the media, so an hour on a basic graphics package would be good.......or maybe our PARTNERS at Key & Eagle could earn their crust?
I see we have a post match party planned........seems the dozen or so old farts are listened to now and again

Agree with all that Orange. We’re slightly at cross purposes here. I meant someone posted on the Twitter feed to say showing a scruffy old bit of paper was a bit Mickey Mouse as opposed to do it properly (as Leigh had and as retweeted by us). No criticism of the SM guy he’s doing his best. The club should be doing this type of thing not leaving it to a young volunteer to do on the hoof.

Yup the kid is doing a good job. Gawd knows how he keeps his positivity up but he’s one of the few successes this year.
