I will not go to Gillingham and we cannot call ourselves London.
Brentford is the only sensible option?

Utter tosh.
"It is top of my agenda." - how about doing your b****y job and get bums on seats and an alternative investor to help/replace David.
"Mackay feels it is right to move away from the ground in Twickenham, west London" - good for you - trouble is it seems like 99% of the fans don't feel that way!
I was hoping that the Prison Warder would continue his normal pattern, 2 years at Nottingham, 2 years at Sussex and 2 years at Surrey but sadly we are going into his 3rd year. Tell you what mate - rearrange the deck chairs while we sink!
Oh well a monthly trip to Perpignan for Dragons home games next year with one or 2 visists up north to watch them, it will be "good night from me" if they move to Gillingham.

Flashback to January 14th 2011
[urlhttp://www.londonbroncosrl.com/news/3031.php[/url Quote Paddock PunterHarlequins Rugby League chairman, David Hughes, said today:
"Gus has enjoyed considerable success in professional sport over a number of years and I am delighted to welcome him on board. His appointment is not only positive for this club, but also good news for the continued growth and development of Rugby League in London.'"
Please....someone lay out his considerable successes in professional sport?
Fucking farce...David Hughes needs to be TOLD by the RFL to get rid of this clown now! |

Interesting that the warder totally skirts the question of why we need to move. He is so out of his depth and seemingly heading this club towards extinction. His interpretation of the Gillingham as a success game is ridiculous (but we all knew it would happen). This was a one off game in a stadium where the attendance at football give would give you a huge frickin' clue that it is not a viable prospect.
One possible saving grace is that I suspect he is actually incapable of finding an alternate venue, despite it being the number one thing in his in tray.

Has the BBC just picked up on the article in the new edition of Forty 20 Magazine? that seemed to say we were looking at a London venue! the BBC piece says Gillingham was successful, but not enough effort was put into the other on the road game!

Listened to it in full on the podcast - no valid reasons for moving other than Quins RU brand is different or some such phrase. No Sherlock - so are football clubs!

BBC piece is based on Rammo's interview with Gus last Friday as I understand it. |

Trouble is they are not much better. Lets see who shall we put on at 12.00 on the first day of Magic weekend. I know the 2 clubs furthest away! Mmmm I am sure London Broncos will attract a big crowd against Leeds Rhinos even if we make it a Monday night game! |

| Quote The Penguin="The Penguin"It's nice to see the club actually making a decision on something.
Oh wait.
No they haven't. This is just Gus Mackay telling BBC London that he's 'in discussions'. Wonder if they'll be concluded before the end of the season?
I await the announcement with relish. What ramshackle football stadium will we inhabit next? I'm already looking forward to my pre-match pint in Leyton. Or New Cross. Notorious rugby league strongholds, both.
Let's disregard the fact that The Stoop is geared up to play rugby all year round. Disregard the fact it's a modern, all-seater facility 20 minutes from Waterloo and easily accessible by road. Let's also forget that the club has put next to zero effort in actually engaging south-west londoners to part with their hard-earned and turn up to watch.
Underhill? Have you actually [ibeen[/i to that place? Give me strength....'"
I have been and I agree, possibly the worst ground in London and I include Dagenham in that!
I meant that they're moving soon or at least hoping to so was wondering if anyone knew their latest plans. |

The reason is quite simple its a smoke screen for his failures.
He now doesnt need to market the club this year as the future is elsewhere.
He persuaded Hughsey to spend big with a view to selling the big names and bringing in the punters-He failed to sell that.
Now we move and he needs time to build a crowd-Its a delay tactic - simple
