Came across ok on Radio I thought...Dunno who he is, but the London supporter who tried to influence Ramsdales after match report deserves a beer imho...He said something along the lines of "The loyal London supporters deserve some support".
He's right too...tho I guess some would rather sit and moan into their keyboards.
All the best for the rest of 2014, tho I know you'll understand if I say I hope you lose next week

| Just got back:
Good points:
- very easy for me to get to by car!
- nice little ground, more suited to Broncos modest support
- the kids played with commitment and in the first half at least seemed to have alot of team spirit
- handy for away teams and supporters
Bad points:
- shambolic organistion outside the ground and to get tokens to get out of car park
- too many unnecessary stewards
- unless / until team gets reinforcements from Australia then despite gret effort they are not simply good enough to compete with any other team in the league
- Gareth Hock's predictable immaturity.
- Salford (albeit with a few of their big guns missing) looked poor.
- patethic attendance. Maybe Saturday's just won't work (better for me though!)?

If you shipped in 44 points against a Salford side playing poorly I can't imagine what the score would be against us when we gel and hit the straps.

That's what I thought today. That crowd for the first home game of the season was shocking. Can't see many first timers going back.
The stewarding and police bill must have equivalent to the gate proceeds. Why were the floodlights put on when it was light? Money to burn?

Haven't you learnt yet. Sense and money to burn do not go together in Broncoland!
Great ground for Championship though!
On a serious note, great effort from the kids, if there is a future for this club, they are it!

Again I thought that. The problem will be whether anyone will bankroll the club outside SL.

Seriously give it up, yes the management are crap, yes it's all gone backwards, yes you've been right about the majority of the stuff you post BUT SERIOUSLY you're boring now, you dont have to support the situation to support the team.
London are not my team but stop with the negativity because if you're not part of the solution you're part of the problem.
As the club might not need people like Gus running it, it also doesn't need people like you supporting it in your current guise.
Negativity isn't getting you anywhere, we get it your unhappy but you don't have to bring everyone else down with you.

Was it delberate? Where you on the pitch?
There is simply no getting away from the fact that Hock is a liability.

Nothing will ever change so long as you continue to bleat like sheep and turn up regardless. By all means turn up, but don't expect me or anyone else to adhere to your code of adherence.1246 is the lowest for Salford.......gus already had the record but it seems he won't be happy until he has destroyed what's left

If hock was gouged then whoever did it got what they deserves.
Liability maybe.. But if you call it on, he will bring it.

You bleat about crowd numbers yet encourage people to stay away, what paradoxical world are you living in, the idea should be accept the ty situation for what it is, encourage people to turn up and then you might actually see sponsors interested, players seeing a full stadium and wanting to play for London.
Gus is destroying the club through being inept hey but at least he wants it to improve, your attitude is, lets destroy the club to prove that i was right, seriously if you want an ego boost if theyd listened to you they might be in a better situation. So well done, you're an intelligent, articulate and succesfull person but you're also a boring negative ar5ehole, a man who would want a club burned to the ground just so he could say told you so.
How does New Zealand contain your ego, you thought of moving to Russia?
No one wants Gus there but stop raining on everyone's parade.

| agree totally with previous post.
gutterfax - if all you are going to say is DH is s***, Gus is???! the team is...., we will get relegated! we will not survive in the championship! we are not fit to describe ourselves as a professional team etc etc etc - we probably would agree with some of the analysis, but what is your solution other than saying we are DOOMED, GIVE UP NOW.?
I don't get it it. if you believe all you are posting then what is the point and why continue? sit on the other side of the world with a smug smirk on your face? if you have the money buy the club from DH, relocate and build another club. otherwise give it a rest, as others have said it's beyond boring...... also please don't quote the declining attendances over the past few years, we KNOW!

Right....let's deal with a few facts.
1. I have never encouraged anyone to stay away and no matter how many times some of you post it, it won't make it so. The implication that I could influence anyone to do anything by posting on a forum is quite laughable really, but it obviously eases some of your more furrowed bows believing that my posts in some way contributed to the record low crowd at the Hive.
2. I have most assuredly never suggested that anyone accept the current situation either. Not sure why you think my absolutely saying that we should [unot [/uaccept the current situation is actually saying stay away, but the reality is, that turning up and applauding 1.80 coffees and pleasant bar staff is ACCEPTING what you have.......
3. Gus wants what to improve?  He is responsible for what we have and where we are yet your comment comes across as "cut the guy some slack"...well him. I am sorry, but he is incapable and deserves to never work in sports administration again.
4. An ego boost  It always has to be about my ego doesn't it  You may be surprised to hear, but I actually care what happens to the club, regardless of who is in charge. What you won't be so stunned to learn is that the clown in charge isn't delivering after 37 months and 40 "home games" he has, with each step, made mistake after gaffe after error. Because I don't "cut him some slack" you reckon it is my desire to say, "I told you so" that drives my posts.....you really are incapable of anything other than blind devotion aren't you
5. There was a parade for me to rain on? When was it? Was there an email about it? Did the club invite everyone, or was it just the "chosen few" who will nod like approving sheep? 108 points shipped in 160 minutes against a mid table outfit and a team that will just steer clear of the drop is not a parade.
6. In your earlier attempt to glean positivity from today, you said the Hive was suited to our size of crowds. That is acceptance of failure on your part. Because the owner and CEO are prepared to accept failure, it doesn't follow that fans should also accept it. The idea of a smaller ground being GOOD is farcical......but because your buddy who needs to be cut some slack couldn't add to crowds at the stoop (he actually cut them by 40%) he's moved us to a ground that makes him (and you apparently) feel better about the crowds. Only Catalans last year has attracted fewer fans to a London SL home game in 231 events. Go on, put some positive spin on that!
7. My attitude? Your saying I want to destroy the club shows how out of touch you are. I don't need the club to fall any further for me to be able to say I said was coming. I want the club to thrive, but for that to happen, HE HAS TO GO! It's not the club, it's the poison running it that is killing it!
Brian2.....I won't stop posting to make you feel better.....I'LL EASE OFF WHEN THE CLUB MAKE CHANGES.
Not standing up at a forum and saying "we'll try harder" but actually TRYING HARDER. Spend some money, hire professionals and if we are going to die as a Professional entity, then at least die trying....what a few on here are suggesting is akin to euthanasia
