Oh goody, I can hardly contain my excitement. Anything to take us away from that nasty Rugby Union stadium where I can't see the game because the sun is in my eyes and I'm miles away from the pitch.

1795.jpg They sentenced me to twenty years of boredom, for trying to change the system from within
I'm coming now, I'm coming to reward them

We're in the Standard tonight, we're on BBC London, we're in the national papers, we were (for a short time) pretty visible on twitter - and we're launching as London in time for the double header on Saturday.
For a small budget we've not done badly at all.
The kit is the least of our worries. I'd rather win something wearing a balls kit than be a balls team wearing the best kit in Super League.

True, but the same could have been said for the name.

Yes, it could have.
But if 60% of respondents wanted London Broncos and London Broncos is a well-ish recognised name beyond the hardcore rugby league fraternity in London why reinvent the wheel?

Wow. Just wow. I would hope that the results of the survey represented around 10% of the influence over the actual decision. I'm sure 60%+ people in this country would be in favour of substantially lower taxes, it doesn't mean they are right, or the idea itself is right.

But I'll be haunted of the awful times associated with H********s
I demand a groundshare with Barnet, until our 15,000 seater stadium is built in Hyde Park..

Indeed.
However you have to call a rugby club something. There's no science that says a brilliantly realised concept and brand will get people through the gates so why try and create perfection. The Broncos are well-remembered, the name resonates beyond the people who are going to games now. Neither of those would be true of a new name.

Perhaps they realised that was just so much guff, impossible to achieve and pointless. Better to have a brand where half the work's done for them and concentrate on getting a winning team together.

Yet they came out and decided to tell the entire supporter base that this was their intention
