| So someone has been offered a contract. Wouldn't that suggest that all this cancerous talk of non-existence, we're doomed etc. is just the usual nonsense posted by people being very unhappy at they way they are treated by the club?
As I said before, patience. We'll all find out at some point.
And no, don't expect a jersey or merchandise to buy for Christmas. It's not happened before, so it probably won't now. There you go, that should hopefully avoid disappointment or any whinging about that subject.

We have no backroom staff, no ground, no new signings and we have had very little official news from the club since September 6th.

Nobody here is grinding any axes with anyone or the club in general, but the occasional text message to me explaining very little is frustrating to say the least.

as opposed to us never finding out? Geez, there's a village out there somewhere missing its Guru, that's for sure
So, once we've eventually found out, it'll be more of the same then and we should continue to accept it?

Yet people still make shıt up and second guess what's going on, often being wrong. No-one here is grinding axes? What like you never get personal for example?
Oh I see you're telling us how important you are again by informing us that you get SMSs.
The club has never told us about signings unless they are major ones, like incumbent Australian hookers, or NZ Captains. Those days are gone. Move on.

Still doesn't change the fact that the lack of news is disturbing and no amount of sniping is going to change that.
As for being "important"? It all depends who you are talking to.....because according to another poster on here, I am despised by the people at London Broncos. Personally, I don't care, just so long as they sort the ing club out, I really don't give a flying one.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
Whereas most people this side of the world really don't give a stuff anymore.

Someone from the Broncos seems to be going the those RFL Super League restructuring meetings reading this...
Quote: "Officials from Catalan, Huddersfield, Hull, Hull KR, Warrington and Wigan all left the meeting, with the other eight clubs indicating their support for proposals to reduce the number of clubs in Super League from 14 to 12 from the 2015 season.'" www.loverugbyleague.com/news_136 ... eting.html

The last meeting we were included in clubs who did not accept what The RFL is doing, but we are not included in the 6 clubs today who walked out?
Super League Clubs have to control the elite part of the game, and there can in the future be no members of The RFL senior staff on The Board, Hetherington earlier this week was contradictory, he said he backed The RFL proposals (No real shock) but not the terms for relegation and promotion??? show how weak some of the remaining clubs are inc St Helens, perhaps they were warned they had been given a World Cup game.

| Some more rumour on another boardhttps://m.rlfans.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f
Re: London gone
My friend who is now a former employee of London Broncos sent me this yesterday
" No i am no longer with Broncos. The club has informally liquidated. Which means they will move forward as London Broncos but will move to North London (Barnet) under a new owner. Players (other than handful of academy products and matt cook, who was also an LB academy product),performance staff and admin staff will all move on. The club have managed or are in the process of paying off redundancies with David Hughes' millions. The RFL will take on the academy which costs around £300'000. The only 2 people to move forward with the club are the two people at the very source of London Broncos failings..Tony Rea and Angus Mackay."
to which i put how can they be in super league next season with no players
"Well the club is currently in advanced and crucial stages of meeting at the minute with the rfl and the owner of barnet fc. I have been lead to believe that the club will move forward on a small budget next year (under a mill) and play mostly young kids and a as many aussies as they can get. Tony Rea is currently asking for exemption of aussies like 'the old days' so the club can be competitive. He has also asked for exemption from relegation for the 'foreseeable' future to entice the barnet chairman to invest. You are not in a time warp, i did just say that and Tony Rea is seriously asking those questions. It is actually a joke.
The former head of youth Phil Jones has been there 15yrs and has grown the sport to a level you wouldn't believe. The amount of schools and kids in general playing it is phenomenal. And this crop of kids coming through now like McMeeken, Dixon, Sarginson, Krasnqi etc are the first group who have grown uo with rugby league and are actual fans of the game; not just 'Athletes' who have been transformed into rugby league players. Howver the clubs insistence to keep employing Tony Rea in various roles who has never put one long term plan in place throughout his 15yr allegiance with the club has killed it. Along with the current CEO who has no former rugby league experience or even interest and has been sacked from sussex cc and surrey cc in similar roles. As it stands, Phil Jones is returning to Warrington and the two clowns are moving forward. Sad to see. Again, wrong people in the wrong positions."

| It perhaps seemed obvious that is why yesterday the club did not have conviction to vote against The RFL, if the future plans are correct as stated it is going to see the slow death of the club for one more season
The loss of Phil Jones is serious, he has done such a good job with the production of youth in London, how the RFL are allowing this, but do they really care?
I have even more serious concerns for the club, in fact the game itself, the weakness of such as Hetherington, McManus and Koukash is so clear, they are far too close to the RFL, Clubs yesterday should have stood together like in 1895, and formed their own Premiership, controlling their own League, while still remaining members of the RFL, but not controlled by them! Super League can no longer carry on as it is, the lack of competence and leadership at the RFL is shocking, would any company with a board or shareholders allow such total incompetence?

Re
Unbelievable but I expect to be close to the truth. The question I would ask who in their right mind in the current SL would vote for a system of relegation and at the same time suggest 1 club is exempt. Bizarre and embarrassing.
