| Quote gutterfax="gutterfax"How so? The "fans forums" promised in 2013 were nothing to do with the RFL. The only reason he wants Solly there now is because Solly was the one that closed the deal with AK. Hughes was playing hard ball and the RFL needed us for 2014 to keep Sky happy.....or are you one of those who believe that the Hive deal for 2014 is a cracking bit of business?'" Who are they?
Obviously having Solly there gives the event greater credibility but it would not have none without him.
Quote gutterfax="gutterfax"
Q1. Mr Solly. What do you believe are the long term benefits of the new tenancy agreement you helped negotiate for the club past the end of this licencing period? Can you assure us that the move to the Hive at the 11th hour wasn't only pressed for and guaranteed by the RFL to ensure an easy transition to 12 clubs at the end of the year and to protect the TV deal which was signed with a 14 team competition in mind?
Q2. Mr Lawrenson. What Marketing and Media assistance will you be giving the Club in the coming season to try and arrest the alarming decline in attendances and interest? Is this level of assistance higher or lower than previous year?
Q3. Mr MacKay. Is the new tenancy at the Hive and the subsequent agreement for them to carry out marketing and administration an admission by you that the £6,000,000 in losses incurred over the last 3 seasons, together with the total waste of about 10% of this on bad marketing, proves you are bereft of any idea of how to give the club a fighting chance of survival?
Q4. To them all. What steps (if any) are CURRENTLY being taken to make London Broncos a viable Championship level organisation, or will the club and RFL make those decisions after we are relegated?'" Good questions though I don't see the need for the full frontal attack on Gus rather than a more subtle approach which could achieve the same end.

Agree. This is not a public lynching or mob mentality opportunity against Gus. We are all adult enough to move on and think of solutions than stay stuck in the past. Good point re:the need for emailing questions.Not much of a vetting process as am sure there will be questions open to the floor on the day.

| I can't believe the ego of both gutter fax and rooster booster, do you really think anybody is interested in your petty squabbles. You two clearly do, but it's tedious boring self serving crap. Why not go off line, or even better stay off line for ever.

If my point of view isn't to your liking, then maybe you should check out the ignore function that is open to you, but advice on where, when and what I post from you, I don't need.
BTW, Cracking effort for a newbie who it seems joined just to share the above post with us.... and welcome to the Boards

Agreed, but he doesn't make it easy on either himself or the fans.
Quote RLLDN="RLLDN"We are all adult enough to move on and think of solutions than stay stuck in the past. '"
One of the problems is that regardless of if we had solutions, ideas or strategies that would help the club, this current deal prevents us from actually doing anything. We had a perfectly handy group of volunteers, as well as other fans who were willing to help out where possible, but now we are at the mercy of the marketing ability of the team at the Hive.
Quote RLLDN="RLLDN"Good point re:the need for emailing questions.Not much of a vetting process as am sure there will be questions open to the floor on the day.'"
I suspect that the questions from the floor will be mainly of a positive nature. I doubt many of the "lapsed" fans or ST holders who will pick their games in 2014 will bother attending, so it will probably be a few membership applicants and die-hards. Any questions that are emailed will of course be vetted....the "panel" are hardly going to sit there and state that the Hive is anything other than a brilliant bit of business...especially when 2 of the 3 are the ones who put it together.
I wonder if Paddock Punter will attend?

| Simple, write a question that looks easy and user friendly, when it comes to the point you stand up and ask it, ask your killer question

| Gus would not put his head above the parapet on his own. We were supposed to have regular fans forums over the last 2 seasons and had none. I bumped into The Warder by chance on the tube last year in the second half of the season and he assured me that there would be a forum soon. Well I suppose on the Zimbabwen 2 week calendar it nearly fits. I wonder if I do pitch up if my card will be marked and I will be standing there with my hand in the air all afternoon?

If you do decide to go, bring your I-pad and you can Skype me in  ......I am compiling a list of questions which I will try to condense into 5 or so.
The key one is that the current deal is only for 2 seasons......and I am keen to know what targets and KPI's need to be hit to ensure that it becomes a permanent home that some people believe it already is. Given we are bolted on for 14th, we will be facing visits from the likes of Barrow, Batley, Dewsbury, Doncaster, Fev, Fax, Keighly, Leigh, Sheffield, Swinton, Whitehaven, Rochdale, Wales and Workington, it is pretty unlikely that at a score a ticket we will struggle to attract 500 to games....with AK want us past 2015?
...go on paddock. Apply for a "press pass" and say you're representing your readers in New Zealand...

Lol, News Of The World tactics eh?lol
Once again some good reasoned points GF. Let's hope The Hive management take heed of the public feeling, in a civilised way of course.

| hey we are going to have to be careful, the only thing left to complain about will be the rugby soon.
We have a ground of sorts. The web sight is getting updated. We have a fans forum. Buying tickets be it membership or otherwise is getting sorted The evil "they" are staring to communicate a little bit, the Barnet faithful have been told we are playing strewth we even have some players.
