Most of the posters who were here and on other forums don't post anymore because they don't follow the club anymore......a FACT that is backed up by yet more statistics and data.
And you, like others are incorrect in your sweeping assessment. I am sure Hughes is a lovely bloke ...he's just ruined a club with terrible decisions and appointments. And all they've done this year is double down on bad decision after bad decision, from the move, the blue shirt, the pricing, the lack of matchday experience, no programmes, no after match bands....and now they put on an event, they want £20 for it.....but you carry on cheerleading.
Cheerleading for Hughes? Why on Earth would a Hull fan do that? Years ago when I posted on here with sporadic regularity you had a different name, but was a still a self aggrandising dullard stuck on transmit. Then at least you was a minority drowned out by a majority of genuine supporters, so I still enjoyed the vast range of topics and opinions. I don't care at all about Hughes and wouldn't recognise him in a line up. I wouldn't even know his name if you wasn't so obsessed with him. I swear if someone made a topic about the life cycle of the African ground snail you'd manage to force in a lament about David Hughes. I'm not invested either way in the rights or wrongs of the man - it's just beyond boring!

Don't read the forum then. Simple.

STOP PRESS NEWS
Barely a good up & under from Plough Lane is Tooting Market where the discerning shopper can purchase an African Land Snail for the handsome price of £6 each. Big buggers but lack a certain amount of pace. None the less they could probably get a shot at 2nd row in the current Broncos team.

Probably be too expensive to play on the pitch, but if they could help out in the bar in the gold lounge then that would be really welcome

Hear the service can be a bit slow, so they would fit right in.
While not cute like a puppy or kitten, they are certainly intriguing creatures.

Surely Bongser is a breath of fresh air anywhere , he even has been known to sing Pavorotti style to entertain the natives , his talents are endless .

| Broncos Twitter feed teasing big announcement in next 24 hours and asking what people think it might be. A deal of cynicism has greeted it as expected and if I was minded to my answer would be “is it something to do with the Gold Lounge?” What would others say ?
As an aside one respondent has suggested that Brad Foster has got a Championship gig nearer to home for next year at Bradford. That may be another testing start to the season for young Brad but I wish him well. Of all of (what I perceive to be) the JC inspired signings he has been one of the few who has basically done what he was signed for. Here’s hoping we aren’t phoning Skolars at this moment to get his replacement.

| could you imagine if it was "We have employed Mike Eccles, and also London will be full time next year"....
But there is more chance of Liz truss annoucing that Leigh would have a new Train station as part of HS2, than London going back to full time

I’ll always prioritise the Gold Lounge, as all know, but I do wonder if an extremely slow and sedentary being might be better placed as head of recruitment and retention. Looking forward to the announcement that Eccles and Thurman are taking over and then perhaps we could get cracking on recruitment rather than like last year have to put up with a deluge of departure announcement before we say we’ve retained a couple of kids and some L1 prospects, who we subsequently don’t play much. @the broncosway

| Am I alone in thinking this tease of news to come is just a tad childish. They have done this several times & has mostly been a damp squib. If they can release the news (whatever it is) tomorrow you can bet they could do it today. Just get on with it Hughes/Lobster.

Probably playful more than childish but the speed point is important. Whilst we are fannying around telling everyone what they already know, other teams are recruiting.

It was most probably Hughes himself!

And yet here you are....sigh
FWIW I defended Hughes from attacks on these very forums and applauded his stance against the RFL and SL clubs mandate that Lenegan be forced to relinquish his Quins shareholding. I felt that it was shortsighted for the other clubs to pull 80% of our fiscal support without fully understanding the impact it would have on us and I don't envy Hughes having to fork out £1,500,000 + a year...........
......but here we are, 15 years later and he has undoubtedly shown he was out if his depth and the RFL and SL leaders bear some responsibility for that I am afraid.
