What sweeping statements you truly make! 'The worst side in 30 Years' over that tine, we have gone through some rough times! but true fans stick by their time through thick and thin!, how many clubs in Rugby League have gone through bad times, if all fans thought the way you do, we would have No game now!

Ageing side Widnes? yes they have a few, but they played well, but they also have some good young players, just think of there glory years! when I was involved with the amateur game, our under 18's was coached by Bobby Chisnall, ex Widnes , and Wigan, so we went to Naughton Park, I was there at Jonathan Davies debut, what must their fans feel like now, but they were still there today.

We needed them two points badly today! and we got them!

Our tryline defence is still a worry, as are injuries.

You can’t criticise our determination and ability to hang on when not playing our best. Jarrod kicking near the line was poor, but great couple of breaks did the job. Thought the forwards worked hard Navarette had his best game for the club, Gwaze excellent.

Vital win, so well done to the team

2 points is better than none.
Indifferent performance from a mid table side who will not challenge for a SL spit this year and who seem reliant on one player for any creativity. Toulouse would stick ,50+ on us.....that's just how bad we are. In 20 years this is the worst Broncos side I've ever seen.

Oi! I’m no apologist pal - let’s get that straight from the off, ok!
Would you have rather we lost then?

Fun game a lot of mistakes from us first half kicking was appalling on 5th and in attack.
The lads are all trying very hard for each other.
Sammurt hands looks awful I’m sure it’s just strapping.
A lot of hard running an awful lot of effort but too many knock on is at the play the ball.
And a few too many forward passes from Ashton.
It’s simple errors you’d think they’re not hard to clear up.
I’d play Chamberlain if he’s fit over meadows at full back.
And if looking to bring anyone in I’d go for a full back.
Or try miski at FB

What an absolute load of clap trap.

Tell me a time when the team was worse in the SL era? Don't even think of quoting Barnet relegation because that side had some top class players in it.

True fans stick with their club through thick and thin. You are the Supporters club No 1 apologist. Did you see the crowd numbers for the last game. Are they the true fans(250!!, laughable).

Widnes didn't play well at all they are a e mid table side. You are making excuse for the woeful team we are. Did you see what Fev did to the Bulls yesterday (Remember the over weight semi pro team that came to london and smashed us) Have you seen what TO are doing to everyone..... Get real

How many top players are in The Championship now? very few, at one time we attracted players especially from Down Under! just because we were in London! Now The NRL is so far ahead of even Super League now, those days have gone currently.

However bad you think Widnes were, fans were there, Wire are not much better than Widnes at present!

I will criticise honesty when it needs to be done, but not over & over again! you have to move on, currently you can't, that's your problem, not ours!

Something is not right currently with Wire, I did a lot of work there back in the days of Kevin Ashcroft and a superb board member in Clarence Owen, looks highly likely George Williams will sign this week, such respect for the owner, he never wants to be in the limelight like a few Super League chairman, and one CEO!

Attended one game at the Hive.
Bradford Bulls last ever SL game....92 points in 80 minutes. I hated every second of the experience in the wasteland that The Hive was....bloody awful ground. As for that relegation season, that was 100% down to "our saviour" (as described on wiki) spitting his dummy out after we got spanked by Wigan in the cup. Only a lot of cajoling and a £100,000 bribe to the owner of Barnet even got us to the starting gate that year.
It did prove that being close to a tube station made SFA difference to the crowds, given it was 400 meters from the station. 1,294 average.

I did say 20 years, so pre Brentford I can't comment on, but I suspect 1,294 will look like a decent average once they've completed a full season at Wimbledon.

I'm sorely tempted to edit the wiki page.
Describing David Hughes as our saviour just doesn't sit right. He's butchered every decision he's made since Lenegan walked away. Coaches and CEO's appointed with no background checks. Joey Grima.....Gus, Blanchard.....Towel.....all nightmare appointments and all did serious damage to the club, so no...he's not our "saviour". Just because someone has good intentions doesn't excuse them for absolutely buggering us to the extent that
