Quote: Tre Cool "No marketing being done, no efforts to invite locals or raise awareness to Wasps and Wanderers fans. None planned either. Pathetic. Really tests my support this attitude from the club.

People will come to a one off game. Bulls and Super League are strong brands. But nothing coming from the club. Seriously dont know why I ***king bother.'"


Ok apparently there will be some radio and locla paper ads. I apologise. Not exactly inspirational but better than nothing.

Happiness is like peeing in your pants. Everyone else can see it but only you can feel the warmth!:



Marketing Dept... Get onto Wasps RU and get something on their website. Come in your Wasps RU top and get in for a fiver, kids are free.

I watched a Wasps v Quins match here back in 2006ish and the stadium was rocking (it was a full house though), and from memory it was a great game.

Adams Park is a nice little ground, I never thought of it being a potential new home, but it kind of makes sense!!

Bradford fans - I can concur that there is a ton of parking at the Adams Park. No need to worry on that front!!

Agreed.........Wasps are playing on Friday night. The same could have been done to attract the Wycombe Wanderers fans but they have a game on Saturday. Add to that the major sporting event taking place on Saturday afternoon that attracts around 10 million viewers each year.
Just a coincidence that 5 of the 7 SL games this weekend take place on Sunday?
Now if you genuinely wanted to maximise the crowd for this game, assuming the option of Saturday or Sunday was available........which would you choose?

To go further, get on to the Wasps RU and get something on the website (already mentioned!!), then ask Wasps RU permission to have a few Bronco players at the gates to hand out flyers advertising the game with the aforementioned deal.

Then to ram the message home, get the Broncs player to come out at half-time with the MC on the pitch and have a quick spruck regarding the game, 1 min max!! Have the rest of the players with the natives in the bars!!

Then have the aforementioned players to mingle with the natives in the bars there after the match aswell.

A very simple, a very cheap 2 hours marketing campaign to a captive audience, and we have raised awareness!!

this is an opportunity that the club could grasp, we seem to be massively concerned on "local" support" we are a London based club, not Twickenham or Brentford or Charlton wherever we happen to be playing.
The support base we have and the demographic area we should be aiming at is massive not just whats around the stadium
So yep maybe do summat at the yawnion game, but get it advertised around the whole area

You could, do what we are doing, out to Carcassone with Eastern Rhinos Colchester on Friday, do a bit of stuff, drink plenty, exchange ideas, as towns are twinned and then head on to watch Pia v Avignon, the last regulare game of the season, on the Sunday, oh happy days,

I could not be bothered with this weekend, more changes than a cheap rail ticket, rubbish, puts it simple, one day, next, day, then back, i even booked the Twickenham Travelodge for this, another waste of £27.00, can i get this back from Quins rufc OF lb, DOES ANYONE CARE ANYMORE, OH WELL, CHEAP PLONK ALL WEEKEND

We should be more concerned about the results on the pitch and if there is to be a future for LB, the need to not finish at the bottom of the table.

We blew most of the games that we were looking to win at the start of the season and we have failed to close out games where we had a lead, only to be turned over in the final 10-15 minutes.

If results had been better and we were further up the table then fewer people would be getting so uptight about the change of venue.

I`m not happy about this weeks venue (coming from SE London) but we just have to roll with it, same as last week at Esher.

We should stop worrying about the things we cannot change regarding the current club management/ownership/investment……they have set out their stall, we are moving next season, DH is walking away at the end of this licence period and we are stuffed if there is nobody to take over from him. As for getting our own stadium……some of you need to stop taking those mind altering drugs!!!

Enjoy what little remains of the current licence period as it could be our last. No amount of whinging and hand wringing is going to change the course we are on. The constant recycling of negative comment on our management/ground issues just drags everybody and everything down.

Can we beat Bradford?…….league position would suggest not, much like when we beat Warrington at home last season…….so of course we have a chance. Broncos to close this one out by 6 points.

Great post.

For too long now we have folks come on here shoot from the hip, not having the slightest clue what has been happening in the background, but always prefering to think the worst, rather than give the club and the individuals at the helm the benefit of the doubt. We are not aparty to any of the negotiations that go on be it Broncos / Quins, Broncos / RFL, Broncos / Adams Park, etc and frankly some of the stuff now being trotted out is embarrassing, too easy to run the club and the individuals down from behind the keyboard.

When I signed up to be a 'London' fan, I knew it wasnt going to be an easy ride, and so it has proved. It's cost me far too much money, time, emotion and whilst I despair at times with many things that go on at the club, what gets me down the most is that there are so many 'glass half empty' individuals contributing to this forum. It drags you down into a spiral of depression.

One thing I firmly believe though (without anything to substantiate) is that David Hughes has spent too much money and too many hours on elite London RL to let it sink without a trace. Like most of us who have belief in London RL, and are desperate to see it succeed and I am sure he will work tirelessly to do whats best.

Well said UtS and PCP. There are certainly plenty of negatives about the club at the moment and we're all aware of them without any need to be constantly reminded by anyone else.

On a point of fact, I still haven't seen any evidence of DH saying that he'll walking away at the end of this licence period. Correct me if I'm wrong but what he has done is to commit to the end of the current licence period without reference to what happens later. Of course, if things don't perk up considerably in the next 12 months, then it will be inconceivable that he'd carry on without substantial outside support.
