Its not a case of not existing, more a case of what will the state of the squad be!!!. We might have a shortfall but if we are putting a squad together on the cheap, there goes any chance of promotion (out of interest, does anyone know when they are going to announce the details re promotion next season. I know its one up/down, but how do we decide the one up?? Is it straight, league winner or will there be a play off between top 2/4 in the championship).

I know Hughes is supposed to be pulling back his funding but that just leaves the club even further behind on the field.

Sorry I must have missed this; can you point me to the release where this was stated ?

Don’t think anyone has suggested the club will not exist next year, not on this thread anyhow. They funding next year could be less if we don’t make the top 4 which could be influencing contract negotiations.
As for promotion demotion, 1 up 1 down, not sure that has actually been ratified by the RFL yet has it? So who knows what will happen.
But let’s be honest currently with the funding we have, london broncos are a championship club, not super league.
If we are to get SL status again we need to have a big financial inject and go from there. Tbh I cannot see that coming anytime soon.

I thought it was common knowledge that Hughes was cutting back and the club were trying to be more self sustainable (in as much as it can). I didn't say he was cutting all ties, just that we were trying to not rely as much on him.

With an average crowd of around the 800 mark (apparently) the club is nowhere near being able to stand on its own merits, certainly not full time

I am not disputing anything you say but other than on this board, where all sorts of rumours become fact, I have never seen anything in the public domain where DH has stated he is reducing his financial input.

Fair enough. I THOUGHT there was something out there from Jason Loubser (apologies if spelling wrong). Where he states the club were trying to rely less on Hughes.

I'm not saying we wont be around, I just worry what kind of squad we might have if half the current team as possibly not hanging around (rumour I know). What got me concerned was the lack of investment this season, only Fleming coming in. We must be paying less than last season for the squad. WB and AA left and I still say need replacing but nothing. With the rumours of players not being offered deals (talk I know) I just worry the squad will be even less sticked next season.

I do note the club have tweeted about a new signing later, over 100 sl appearances. No mention if for this year or next though

On the one up one down promotion for 2019. I understand that it will on Skys behest, be a play off between the top Championship team and the bottom Super League team. So no guaranteed promotion.

That's a shame, if like this season a team pulls away it makes it pretty much a dead rubber season!!! Top 4 would keep interest

Eloi Pellisier

I'm happy with that, well done club.

Isn't he just 'til the end of the season?

He was chatting to Danny at Toulouse at the end f the game.
Is that confirmed? Or just a rumour
Ok it’s confirmed just seen it. Hope he plays on Sunday

now we look like good shot at making 8's, will we see more signings this week?

The squad is pretty much injury free. Are we good enough make SL?
