Good piece and also agree that MS is wrongly perceived by some, he has always seemed supportive in my eyes

Had to stop reading League Express when they employed Garry Schofield. Don't think even he believes what he writes, his role is just to boost the letters page. Wasn't going got pay a subscription to read such boulacks every week though.

Given that we were a mid-table Championship side playing a SL title contender, I thought that we.........were still a load of rubbish.

What a shambles, the team are rubbish, the club appears to be in free fall. In my opinion the club can offer as many free tickets as they like, but Londoners are fickle when it comes to spending disposable income and who in their right mind would spend one more penny to watch a sub standard team get hammered week in, week out. Basically the team are simply not fit to be in Super League.

The squad simply can't compete at this level and it's a crime to demand payment to watch them.

I realise you're late to the party but the Broncos haven't competed at this level since circa 2008.

Welcome Quins Kitties born 02.04.09 - Purdo - Determined, loveable with a "can-do" attitude. A born leader. Louie - Big, white and fluffy. A very noisy prop forward. Harley- Cute and gorgeous (just like our no.9) Well, I couldn't call her Chad, could I? Update on Quins Mogs :- Purdo - deffo leader amongst Mogs. The Capo. Louie - turned out to be more like Louie Spence than LMS. Re-named Judas. Harley - Cute but not as gorgeous as our no.9. Oh well, at least I haven't got a Willy.:simpsons/017.jpg



Quote: jaybs "Shows how much perhaps you know about Martyn Sadler, along with Peter Smith of the Yorkshire Post are the only two Northern journalists who give us any support. In fact if Martyn wanted to he could say more about our club, but no he shows more respect than many do towards us and keeps his peace on one subject matter.'"


You've missed the point.

My reference to MS was in response to his comment re Tony Rea getting sacked...if he knows anything about how things (ie how DH runs things) he'd know there isn't a chance that he will be sacked.

Re supportive Northern journos, my perception is that Andy Wilson used to be but ain't anymore, Chris Irvine has never had a good word to say about London (ditto Schofield) and Phil Caplan has been supportive at times.

Stevo is the biggest turncoat of the all (though one couold hardly call him a journalist!).

After a collective sigh of relief that we exist and some misplaced positive enthusiasm, it would seem that resignation to the fact that London Broncos 2014 season will result in some heavy losses, possibly 27 of them and relegation to the Championship for 2015 seems to have finally sunk in.

hudds had the same for 4 years, we knew we would lose almost every week( but due to mergers and sub standard lower league clubs we didnt get relegated),we even started for a laugh booeing the team on to the pitch, just to get it over with ...it does look very likely that the broncos are going down.enjoy the games and if you do win one it will be special day in a bad season

Happiness is like peeing in your pants. Everyone else can see it but only you can feel the warmth!:

I personally have been resigned to the fact that we were going to be a 2015 Championship side since last November.

I just wish that this season would be done and dusted now because it is heart wrenching, and quite frankly torture for my listening in over the internet and embarresing. I am planning to attend a game this season, and instead of the usual excitement, it is just sheer bl00dy dread.

Very sad what is happening, and IF we survive after DH goes at the end of the season (which he will) then it makes joining the supporters association very important as we could have some part to play in the rebirth of our club.

Yes, but you knew that you'd still be in existence if you were relegated - we don't!

Sadly for the Broncos the Hive currently gets more people coming to see Women's football than it gets coming to see RL.

On the bright side we have topped some Barnet men's football attendances.
