I've just had an email from Skolars plugging tickets for their game on Sunday.
Maybe we can get them to mount a reverse takeover of Broncos?

Same here and the tickets were advertised at half price! Last week we had the shambles at the hive of prices going up when they closed the terraces only to be told at the last minute they were open again.

Me too, although I'm guessing it's an RFL thing. I find it pretty difficult to get too excited about Championship 1 rugby ( no disrespect to Skolars) but at £6 a pop I might just go along if I'm free on Sunday.

| Just watched the highlights. TR needs to teach the team how to defend. Forget the attacking part, as they can do that bit. Cut out the champagne off loads and go back to basics. We were told it would be 5 drives and a kick, percentage RL but on Saturday they forgot that principle.

I had to chuckle at the headline on the Skolars e-mail:
[i WATCH PROFESSIONAL RUGBY LEAGUE IN NORTH LONDON[/i
I don't supposed they intended to suggest this was the only place in North London to do this but the thought crossed my mind

| Quote Colly2="Colly2"We had 800 season ticket holders last year but only 200 members this year. Never mind leaflet drops, the very first thing to do is contact the missing 600. After that, there'll be a set of fans from last year who attended the majority of games but didn't have a season ticket. There'll be a lot fewer of them this year - the club should be in contact to find out why. All very easy to do.'"
This move was never going to address the real problems at the club. However, the management compounded the error by proceeding with this at a time when they were in a very poor position to retain loyal fans. They then compounded it again through pricing. Season tickets were great value in the past, whereas membership only makes sense if you will attend the vast majority of games. To cap it all there was very little engagement with fans through this process to manage the change.
The club is now seeing the full effect of its own diabolical management.

| I too have had an email from Skolars and previously a glossy card fro Hemel. I have only been to Skolars once .
- years ago and have never paid to go to Hemel, although did go there years ago. Seems both clubs are more professional than the Broncos even though the Broncos must have a bigger budget.
I am trying to understand what this means. The obvious things I have thought of are:
1. The club want to fail and are just going through the motions; or
2. They are hoping fir an upturn in competitiveness on the pitch marketing; or
3. The staff are disinterested / incompetent or similar.
Any other ideas?

Claims like that should be enough to stir jaybs into action.

No apology for the data breach yet either.

Indeed the club's failure to respond to e-mails on this matter is, at least, disrespectful.

Working for the club? All those years of PR experience will soon have them packing both stands and the terraces will be rammed.....

Not only that but the membership nonsense is confusing. I couldn't be bothered working out what it all meant. If there'd have been a simple season ticket I may have got one or two this year. As it is I probably won't bother going to many if any more games this year. Doesn't seem the club want supporters so I'll probably oblige them.
