sorry....my bad. It's just I take announcements of pending events with a pinch of salt given the 12 month build up in total secrecy to a new rental agreement and a try before you buy (and we'll pay you too) opportunity for a potential investor who doesn't invest in his other sporting club but instead expects it to be self sufficient.

6,000 fans at 20 a pop spending another tenner at every home game would deliver 2.34 million a year and coupled with potential sponsors and the sky cash would give us a pop at self sufficiency.
The Hive doesn't hold 6k, their football team averages 27% of that and their owner has a marketing team made up of an estate agent and a recruitment consultant.....yet this is a good deal for us according to Gus, so when he comments on visa applications I tend to take things with a very large lorry-load of salt!

The All Golds prop story is a non-starter. He was "Fraped" on Facebook and that "journalist" got whiff of it and published it. Bizarre. One thing I did see was this - www.uksport.gov.uk/jobs/head-phy ... e-job23782

If this part of an article is correct, and given it is a quote then I assume it is then, bar the sky money & some sponsorship, how the hell are the Broncos ever going to earn any additional income?


[iGus Mackay has also revealed that gate receipts and membership revenues plus all the income from bars will remain with Barnet FC. Gus Mackay also said " We will be offering a membership rather than a season ticket".[/i

Nowhere has it been said that the Broncos want to make money or have a clue how to do it. They are very good at losing it though. Barnet have taken a gamble and good on them!

Too difficult?

exactly what is at stake for Barnet/The Hive/Anthony K?
To be a gamble, or even a punt, there must be a consequence of it not working out....what consequence is there for Barnet/The Hive/Anthony K?

13 Extra days where they can collect 1,000-3,000 ticket receipts, together with the associated bar/food revenues which will generate about 600k at no cost to them whatsoever. In fact, as the deal has been explained(badly), Barnet/The Hive/Anthony K are being PAID to look after our admin and marketing too boot.......



This deal is a 12 month or possibly 24 month stop gap that fits the RFL agenda for a reduction in SL and does the London Broncos absolutely no favours at all......we are again paying tenants but this time without the hand picked staff of our CEO or the ticket or match-day revenue.

The emperors new clothes is a perfect analogy as to what has/is gone/going on at the club

Fair call and something I have said to GF before. I am still a fan, not a supporter. Location prevents me from going to games.

I am actually trying to book a trip home based around the last home game of the season......it's very very sad really



It still irks me that the club is run (and allowed to be run by the RFL) like an amateur set up with no planning and no thought of consequence.....basically, we are a team with a coach, trainer and kit-man playing out of a ground we rent and reliant on the generosity of 1 man.....all that is missing is a few "hand picked" staff.

Is Gus funding your trip GF!

Well I come back from Oz on Saturday and yes we have had Xmas and the New Year while I have been away but the silence is deafening. Let's hope for some news either by the weekend or early next week or my support will not be in evidence this year.

I think the club is correct in not announcing signings until they actually have their visas. I know fans are keen to see what sort of team we will have but there are plenty on here who will jump on the club as being incompetent if they screw up just trying to pacify fans who are demanding to be told information which may turn out to be false. PC Plum has allready given an indication of the 'irons in the fire. Much as as im concerned about the quality of players we will get im sure we will have the numbers on the pitch. A few clubs have allready indicated a willingness to loan a few players which may be dependant on what players we can first sign from down under.
