| I give about as much credence to most of these 'rumours' as I do articles in the Daily Star, and am surprised most of you are giving them serious thought.
As a serious point though, where on earth is the money going to come from to develop the New River? Are Haringey Council and the RFL going to magic some cash from somewhere? The development world is struggling for private sector investment as it is, even if certain parties put the land in at nil value. Some of you live in a complete fantasy world.

| Quote The Chronicler of Chiswic="The Chronicler of Chiswic"Apparently the only NRL club that owns its own ground is Cronulla, and a fat lot of good it's done them. As an aside, what always puzzles me about Australian grounds is how little covered accomodation a lot of them have - looking at the Penrith game on Monday there didn't even appear to be a lid on the seated areas, no wonder the crowd was so bad.'"
As for Penrith, there are covered areas in the main stand, but yeah, you are right. Funny though ain't it. Don't forget it's always sunny in Sydney  Oh apart from the torrential rain of the last week or so and set to continue.

The Skolars have been trying for years to take over New River, if the RFL have investment funds they would be assets (ala Odsal) and would be a good investment. Never say never.

I think he's a little over-hyped at the mo personally, he has a very good step but that's about it.

| If anyone is interested, it was the QUINSSA AGM last night. Not being one eyed about my rugby, went along as the Quins RU Chairman & CEO were due to speak. Oh and the Aviva Trophy was there too. I knew it was quite a big cup but turned out to be a very big bugger indead
From a Broncos perspective it was quite sad to hear that they have sold 10% more Season Tickets already than last year & how sponsors want to throw money at them. But I guess that's what winning things does for you. They are looking at the financial viability of installing a big screen too.
Anyway the important bit I wanted to mention was that when pressed by a QUINSSA member about the Broncos continuing there, the CEO stated that Broncos have a contract with them for 1 more year. He also said that NO negotiations of anysort had taken place. He expects us to see out the contract. Somebody is telling porkies.
As someone who fell for Strudwicks Life Menbership scam stumping up hundreds of pounds back in the day, I shouldn't be surprised at the current state of the club. Maybe we need a little of that Struddy magic

| Quote jaybs="jaybs"Lets remember these are just "rumours" at present, not that I deny there may be some truth!
The very least it demonstrates that discussions may be under way and ones that may benefit the club, okay we may not agree with all of them but they are the start for real debate once substantiated, it is just becoming sad whatever the club may do now one and perhaps another few will never now agree with anything the club may say or put forward, but at the same time feel every statement they make is completely correct and has no faults at all.
Powell going to coaching such as the Under 20's is a possibility. only yesterday LMS in an article was praising the way he was developed before leaving and we have seen this with other young players, the new line up of coaching staff sounds interesting and I look forward to hearing more. You can understand perhaps that position with Gower currently and his decision has to be respected, he is giving the club first class service on the pitch at present. Regards Dan Sarginson, he has such potential, but as I stated with agents in another thread he wants to think carefully what is best for him now and not short term gain.
The Stoop, and what future there may be, this is going to disappoint some! as they will never see any wrong with it as a venue for us to play, but several press stories seem to be circulating only released today how the on the road matches were relatively successful!
I just think we need to see what does develop but we should all agree some action has to be taken.
This comes from a City that had to buy another Club just to keep it's place! how sad!

| I heard that
1 The Earth is flat
2 David Cameron is the love child of Lord Lucan and Shergar
3 Danny Brough is the missing link
4 The Moon is made of cheese
5 Ben Westwood is nearly the missing link
6 Gutterfax is Bilbo Baggins
5 The RFL are going to buy Trafalgar Square and build a 20000 seater stadium there so no one can complain about accessibility to a ground in London
6 Father Christmas doesn't exist
