good job they chose to stage the game where they did then!!!! just think if they had moved it to hmmm lets say Doncaster like suggested, maybe we might have got an extra 50 there and the pies would have had maybe a 1000 less! Well done the RFL
Did anyone actually have any belief that we were going to win this game? My only hope, like it was at the start of the season, just compete in games, if we are losing that's not too bad if we are at least putting up a fight when we are losing and looking as tho we care! Sadly yesterday we competed for what might have been 10 minutes! at the most, then gave up. Dropping the ball in the first set I think set the scene for the whole game. would love to see the stats on how many sets we completed, we didn't have the ball very much so it cannot have been difficult to count.

We all know, the club needs a culture change! If you are going to spend to the salary cap, spend wisely. The season has gone, another win before the end would be nice, I doubt we will get it. Next year IF we are still up and running is important, a decision has to be made at the club if they want to be TOP FLIGHT promotion and demotion will at least give the players and coach something to aim at!

Have I seen much live rugby this season at the stoop? NOPE, but its not just because of the way they are playing, will I be turning up when I can next year! of course I will I love rugby league as a sport so I will support my local team, and yes I do go to Skolars as well now and again.
All of you that are ripping up your season tickets, hope you continue to watch RL somewhere its too good a sport to give it up

I am still wondering where they are, Where were all the other 10, 000 so called Pie fans, was the bus delayed out of depot, the game is in Wigan really and those so called fans did not bother....shame on them only £3.80 on t'bus..... though they will all come out the woodwork now.

Lost all respect for Wigan now, big club..........not, Leigh......Proper place, they, with passion, hate anyone from Wigan

Lenigan better send out a search party, though David Attenborough, should be called in to do a one hour special on the rarely seen lesser spotted Pie eater, in a filed just outside Thatto Heath...................Would make fascinating TV

Yes, that's what you should be concerning yourself with, the attendance, don't let the performance of your team bother you at all, priorities and all that...........

Do people actually think we played that badly? Genuine question.

My overriding impression from the game was that, although we are rubbish, Wigan were red-hot. They are just far, far too good for a team such as ours. They didn't give us any chances, and when we did have the ball, we haven't a clue what to do with it. They've got strike players, leaders, relentless forwards, a well drilled defence. We don't have any of those. Are you in some way surprised we got tubbed?

My overriding emotion is not anger, it is depression. Depression that after 33 years, London rugby league does not appear to be able to compete. At all.

Surprising to note that we have had More Visitors all Non Bronco Fan visitors than ever before today!

The Penguin, we started off doing what I asked for on twitter, to just play it simply and that is when we held Wigan, our line of defence was not bad and some of the tackling was superb! But when an opposition has 75% of the ball, what can we really expect, any team would have buckled at some stage, yes even the Eagles.

Yesterday was more like going back to the day before the limited tackles rule. The match officials did nothing to help, in football, the three of them would be dropped next weekend, especially the referee, when he takes advice on two occasions from the side, and both were long, and immediately lead to further tries!

In all The RFL have a lot to answer for yesterday, it has done even more damage to the opinion of the game to TV viewers, more and more people I know once RL fans are saying they enjoy the union more on TV?

Well the two points would have stopped the nil!

On answer to the Broncos team YES I think we were shameful, weak, clueless and the team were disloyal to every fan that travelled by putting in no effort at all. Friends who watched the game couldnt believe LB were such a non competitive team. In answer to your question about Wigan - again yes they were technically brilliant but more importantly they played with pride and passion. Strange we have fans who will support and clap the team no matter what dross they serve up and Wigan have fans who cant t be bothered to pay a local bus fare to get to the game but I bet they will all be excellent journeymen when it comes to Wembley they will have so many fans on that day. The pride and passion Wigan team play with deserve better from it's fans.

Quote: The Chronicler of Chiswic "Apart from the game, it was quite a nice day out - good weather, Wigan fans picnicing on the grass and around 'The Whistling Wren', nice ground with friendly and helpful staff (don't eat the pies, though!)'"


Could have fooled me - Listy and Leeboy had two each!

Ridiculous post. Yesterday's drubbing was just one of a series of diabolical efforts this season and to blame the RFL and the officials is simply to stick ones head where the sun doesn't shine.

Even in the club's bleakest moments playing in the murk at Chiswick, unsure if they were going to get paid the players generally performed with more pride, courage and passion than that shower did yesterday.

This is one of the few RL showpiece games shown on the BBC and we let the game down.

Something has been going wrong with the club since we entered SL, now it doesn't feel like a club anymore, more like just a bunch of overpaid mercenaries, a kit bag and a small odd group of never say die, hairshirt wearing fans.

The problems are more recent than that. As much as David Hughes money has saved the Broncos his decisions on how to run the club are killing it.

I find it hard to have sympathy for him anymore- pumping money into a losing cause might be noble, but pumping money into a losing cause without taking steps to turn it into a winning one is idiocy.
