Still no sign of the review's conclusions though?'"



According to someone in this country, the review has been done.

Again with the personal attacks.....what's up rooster? icon_rolleyes.gif
The review has resulted in 2 (that we know of) back office staff being "gone" and a brother of a player being hired to find more players....even though we are at the cap. You're the one who declared that according to your sources in 'stralia that it was over......if there was more to it, please let us all in on the news.
Only other rumour I heard was that the Chairman thought the players were lacking in fitness with an emphasis on stamina.....I await your more in depth update on what has actually been reviewd and what changes have been made...

Welcome Quins Kitties born 02.04.09 - Purdo - Determined, loveable with a "can-do" attitude. A born leader. Louie - Big, white and fluffy. A very noisy prop forward. Harley- Cute and gorgeous (just like our no.9) Well, I couldn't call her Chad, could I? Update on Quins Mogs :- Purdo - deffo leader amongst Mogs. The Capo. Louie - turned out to be more like Louie Spence than LMS. Re-named Judas. Harley - Cute but not as gorgeous as our no.9. Oh well, at least I haven't got a Willy.:simpsons/017.jpg



According to DH in this weeks matchday programme, "we are in the middle of an intense review which covers everything from playing staff, coaching staff, fitness and even the office".

Gutters - I think you'll find at least one of the office staff went just before the review even started so that's a red herring, I believe.

DH hasn't pulled any punches in his programme notes this year. He has had a dig at the players three times now, so I think it's fair to say he is putting a large portion of blame at (some of) their feet.

Personal attacks? You go round giving it the large one that you have Gus emailing you etc. Ask him if the review has been done. See what he says. Ask him if anything has changed there at all. That way you can confirm things for us all.

According to someone in this country, the review has been done. That's all I've heard.

Maybe GF and his close ties to the club can tell us more?

Who told you that? He must be very well connected to senior figures at the club and surely has more information?

I asked Gus about the review at the weekend and he told me it was still ongoing as they wanted to make absolutley certain the same mistakes were not made again and when the decisions were made they would be the correct ones and the ones which were right for the club. Make of that what you will. If RB has been told the review is finished then Gus was being untruthful. If Gus is telling the truth then someone has been untruthful to RB. Whichever one it is we will probably not be told till the end of the seaon. Rumours are always rife, I heard at the weekend we were getting an Aussie coach with SL experience for next season and RP is being moved to the academy - who knows - who cares anymore ..........

Despite it all, damn it, I do, after 32 years, I would miss this club like losing a family member.

I have only 1 question left for Gus and for David Hughes. What was the point of the re-birth of the London Broncos Brand?

I sincerely believe that between the 2 of them, David Hughes and Gus MacKay would have difficulty in organising a up in a brewery icon_biggrin.gifEPRESSED: .....I seriously don't know whether to laugh, cry or weep hysterically....... icon_rolleyes.gif

As RTS says, we won't hear 'til the end of the season (near as dammit anyway) but if DH says we are in the middle of the review, then I've no reason to think otherwise.

Rumours are just that and I have heard quite a few that have been total garbage over the years (Mac getting sacked was one!).

Re our re-branding, it may not have brought us thousands of extra fans but I can understand why it was done (maybe Quins didn't want to be associated with us anymore).
