I think the Wimbledon owners struggle to fund them, zero chance they would look at us. We are simply a revenue stream for them. The more we pack in, the more they make

The Broncos are doing their level best to pee off the fans that they already have. Attracting new fans does not seem to be on the agenda, as usual.

Not sure that ticketing revenue has been part of any previous ground deals. Maybe DH thinks Wimbledon will do the work of attracting new fans that he has never shown an interest in doing himself.

I have followed the LONDON CLUB since I was in my teensl even though born in St Helens and still live nearby and went to the first game at Fulham, also Big West Ham Supporter:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_1649.jpg



Give some credit please! the amount of money David Hughes has put into Our Club! There are not many owners in Super League who have invested more, what have such as The RFL invested into spreading the game into Our Capital City? but put money into keeping the ground in Bradford going when it should have been filled in years ago!

We should get an Anxiety Charity' to support our pages currently, anyone new coming to the pages would need to call them after reading through what has been posted.

Yes express our disappointments, but to keep dragging it out over and over again, just gets boring. If I had invested the money David Hughes has, I would be thinking of calling it a day.

If I had mad the poor decisions DH has, I would be thinking of calling it a day. It gets repeated because it keeps happening. I wont knock the bloke for paying the money, but at the same time, the reason we are so dependant on him is due to the numerous mistakes he has made

Which is strange for a bloke who made his fortune doing deals you would assume.

Indeed. You dont make the kind of money he has by not knowing your onions. Thats why I am baffled about where the club finds itself

Not really.
Good sales people are often narcissists as are some bad ones pretending to be good. A trait of such people is that they like to be praised and take criticism badly and over the years it has become apparent that some people have manged to gain and retain employment at the club for which they were in no way qualified for by massaging Mr Hughes ego.
Mr Hughes is quoted in A PASTEL REVOLUTION as being in favour of the broncos and charlton being a sporting club and that this idea was shot down by the football side.....I can think of 2 employees who might have played on this when touting moves to football clubs.....as in
"You were right at Charlton Sir. This could be your chance to show everyone how right you were"
Just my opinion. I can't deliver proof, but as. Theory, it holds water.

David Hughes business was trading energy. There is massive demand for energy, it basically sells its self.
The key thing in that business is getting the best price that you can.
In addition his company did not have too many scruples as to whom it was selling too.

It would not take many guess's to know who you are talking about who is currently employed by the club.

Looking at the move to PL and the club as a whole, the sad truth is that yet another employee has taken David Hughes' pants down with unrealistic promises, and we all know what primate it is this time.

Excellent summary

Orangeman when fans of 25 years plus are written to by the office monkey and associates and told they are no longer welcome it does make me wonder for the future of the club. (holding the paperwork to prove this if necessary)
