Why do you need to hijack this thread? There is another one on your topic. This thread is about Waisele Ligani Naiqama coming to London.

So sad that you chose to bottle it and show how little there is behind this. As I said before, make enough claims and you can later choose the one that is right. That is all this is, hot air.
I'll make a similar claim
There is a chance that Broncos will be playing in Scotland next season.

I reckon the Hive is slightly ahead of Scotland as an option
As for bottling anything? Hardly....as I said in the original "homeless" thread, the club are having to renegotiate the contract that they only just negotiated and I implied that homelessness was a potential outcome. You now want me to declare that we will be homeless in 2015 when, no matter how many times you try to say it, that's not what I said!

I've never claimed that you said x,y or z only that you have suggested x,y or z in order to later claim you are right. It is a tactic you have repeated again and again and I have watched over the months since I have been on this forum. That you are not prepared to nail your colours to the mast while still claiming you are right is a symptom of this. The Homeless in 2015 thread is a prime example of an indirect claim that you can later treat as confirmation that you are right or later drop.
So rather than repeat yourself, why not actually make an informed opinion and state categorically how likely these claims are in your opinion, because unlike you I think the answers I've received from the club and Hive make the likelyhood of the Broncos being homeless as likely as a move to Scotland.

ghood for you getting a straight answer to the qestion about where home games will be played next year. I have to say, such wonderful news really should be conveyed to the few fans they have left......given the perpencity to announce the signing of a new tea-lady of late, I would expect a twitter/facebook/email/postal and forum announcement shortly.
I take it you are saying that you are 100 percent sure that we can call the hive home next year.

You really don't get it do you. Clubs announce when they are moving, not when they are staying. Point me to a news story from another club that says 'We will not be moving next season'.
As for tickets? It's a membership so there is no need to advertise a season ticket. Join when you like, leave when you want. I guess you're looking for another news story saying 'We are not selling season tickets'.
Until I see a credible story saying Broncos are leaving (despite telling NYT that they are staying at the Hive ) or that direct debits are being cancelled because the Hive are no longer running ticket sales then this is just hot air.'"

| Gutters, I believe your thread title was "homeless in 2015" not "homeless in 2015?" So actually I think you made the statement, rather than pose the question for discussion
Wes still coming, looking forward to him playing at the Hive after the re negotiations that may see the club receive the gate receipts, ah hold on that will not be good enough for gf either

Oh dear!
If the income from 2014 ticket sales isn't enough to satisfy AK then it poses the question of how much rent he would deem satisfactory? Ian Lenegan used to say an attendee at a game was worth £10 to the club once discounts and freebies were taken into account. Using that figure then £166,400 "isn't enough"........that's pretty close to the rent we were paying at the stoop. Could we end up with 66% less fans and yet paying the same rent in 2015? Would you deem that satisfactory Michael!

4438_1358277234.jpg Didn't gat an answer when I asked Radford how much he paid Stokes to save his job.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_4438.jpg |

| I have to say that the move to the Hive has been bonkers. If we go on the official figures then we have dropped about 1500 people per game which would surely cover the rent at the Stoop.

| So you are not happy that the gate receipts go to AK now you are saying you would not be happy that the gate receipts would be going to the club! Inter interesting dilema. Convenient that youdodged the comment about being homeless.
And let's be serious with the season we have had is anyone suggesting that the 1500 would still be coming if we were still at the stoop?
