Couple of points here that need addressing from the first part of your post.
First up, I am not praising anything the club have or have not done. For 10 years I have openly lambasted the club and I will continue to do so if I feel they are failing to get it right. What I have said since the announcement is that I am willing to give them time......rather than whine about every little hiccup that occurs. I agree that the website is farcical, but I am not defending anyone blindly and neither am I praising them.
Next up, the Joke designs? How is a hoodie, fleece or a rain jacket in the clubs colours, predominantly the reverse colours, black with blue piping a joke design? I own various items of London Broncos stuff pre-2006 and these include a plain blue poloshirt with the club badge on it, as well as a white one. I never purchased a hoodie as I am not sure they used to have them, but I did have a rain coat that was predominantly blue, with piping and the club badge.....so the polo 2012 and rain jacket 2012 are both exactly what was available in 2005.....just in different colours.
That said, I am not praising the designs....but I am not slagging them off either. Please do re-read my comments about delivery to New Zealand and explain how that is praise for the club.

And speaking of the website where is there only one or two stories on there a week, I know it's in the off season but look at other clubs; they manage to put stories up on a far more regular basis.'"
As I said in my earlier posts, I too am concerned by the lack of communication from the club, but you were obviously too busy frothing at the mouth at my blind praise of everything they do to notice that...
Website = farcical...I have said so from day 1.
Comms = farcical but no different than before.
Merchandise = average but not a joke and I agree with no shirts being available until a sponsor is secured.
Club colours= OK IMO....black shirts will probably out-sell the blue ones
ST/unallocated seats = possible mistake but remains to be seen.
Squad = spot on...best pre-season line-up I can recall.
Future = 3 more years.
Ground = until we can afford our own, what's wrong with the stoop?
see...not one word of praise for anyone, but neither is their inane ramblings about the lack of a chevron on the shirt or a whine about the sun in my eyes.
