The business arrangement between Hughes and Kleanthouse was brokered by and was conditional on a financial payment made by the RFL to Kleanthouse. As I have already said this agreement as it is will not exist in 2015.
As for the fans being even part of a solution, if he hardcore support in the past struggled to get friends and colleagues to games when we had the likes of Wigan cing to town then god help them wen it's fev or fax. As for no fans = no club.....you really are naive aren't you! This year the fans deliver £0.00 in revenue to the club......Hughes has never cares about fans or the need to attract them.....he wrote cheques for 2 million a year to fund HIS team......if he cared about the business side of things ten he'd never have employed Blanchard or the African.

Oh look the original post and thread.

Well it's a couple of weeks with no home games. Good luck to the lads today at Castleford. Sad how things are but could not stomach the eight hour round trip. Just have to go along to Skolars and see how they are getting on.

A truly valid and worthwhile post in this thread......take anything you fancy from the middle shelf

I have to agree, this is such an overdone story with no supporting evidence and for those who want to see Broncos play, largely irrelevant.
Representatives of the club have said they are staying at the hive, they have contracted players for next two seasons and appear to be looking forwards. They certainly don't give the impression of a club preparing to wind down in 12 months time.

I think most fans don't care how much it costs Hughes and I certainly get the impression that this isn't the first and probably wont be the last time that the demise of the Broncos will be foretold by soothsayers trying to tell the future in the numbers of the past.

Barnet FC have been through this, financial backer withdrew, all players lost, in a league well out of our depth ending up with a record low points. We are now in a a far better and sustainable place, all be it at a lower level. So ignore Gutterfaxs financial hypotheses of doom and support what the club are doing for next season.

Excellent post and wholeheartedly agree.

Oh gosh, should I be worried?

Worried? About what ( other than your sanity)

Not a problem for me, clearly just for you.

In February I said we'd finish bottom and be relegated whilst not winning a game and conceding more points in a season than our highest announced home attendance. I was told then I was mad.....maybe I am, but I was spot on!
More so, I have banged on about the perils of ignoring the business side of running a club. I warned that the reliance on Hughes cash was a disaster waiting to happen, but was told my statistics meant little. I was apoplectic with the idiocy of Blanchard and MacKay but was shouted down for making it personal. The fact of the matter is I was right and I am still right, but some people prefer to live in a bubble of faux positivity. Another hammering today........losing is part of the club now and regardless of next years lower tier opposition, getting that out of the psyche could be too hard.

Agreed.

I bought a membership knowing that we wouldn't win a game this season, and will continue to do so. Mr Grima seems to be getting rid of all the players tainted by the losing mentality. That's his call and I believe he is right. If he fails it is curtains for the Broncos, then again he may not and he will get us up or a least winning some games.

I will continue to support RL in the south regardless of the success of the Broncos as they are not the be all and end all of the sport around London.

Plenty, I just couldn't be bothered to spend time cutting and pasting them, and in the process bore everyone else. If they've been following this thread they'll have read your remarks.

Good post micky, unfortunately you're trying to engage someone in conversation who has a megaphone and noise-cancelling headphones. He shouts everything and hears nothing.

Another well argued post Meliferra, you really must stop that it doesn't fit in at all.

You're right though, in the end while we know some of the financial details our opportunities to change or influence them are minimal. We can only turn up and continue supporting the team.
And as you point out, when Barnet's financial backer disappeared into the sunset it was the fans that remained.

"Look everybody I was right".
Sat there thousands of miles away criticising fans who still go to cheer on the team, willing the demise of this club just so you can say "I told you so" and do the most Pyrrhic victory dance ever.
All you ever talk about is the past and great you were then, while shouting down anyone that wants to discuss the future.
