Theres nothing stupid about loyalty bri', but there is something unsavourey about those simply taking it as read and abusing it. It's not the fans anyone is railing against, it's Hughes, McKay, the RFL, SLE and Sky TV and the rest of the "build it and they'll come" Brigade.

| Quote nadera78="nadera78"I'm not a season ticket holder but get to as many games as I can. Before I make my mind up about the new season I want to see proof that they are taking this seriously. [uI have a terrible feeling that the 'plan' is to see out the season so that Hughes can say he fulfilled his commitment and the RFL can keep the 14 team SL[/u.
'"
Considering the money DH stands to lose by continuing on, the idea that he would do so just to put a smile on the face of the RFL is rather vaieve IMO. The poor guy is having to work on past his retirement age to keep this club afloat and despite what people think of his running of the club i doubt many on here would do so and derinately not for the RFL.
Whether we find out now what the long term plan is or not im convinced there has to be one and eventually e will see it. Hopefully it involves IL at Wigan.
Things are very trying for us all at the moment but at least we have a club now. As far as the admin goes didnt we work out that the Barnet FC would cover both clubs to save money?

I've never spoken to David Hughes but I know Vitol and I know several people working there. If he's working on past retirement age - which is something I'd question because I know he is a shareholder at Vitol so he's quids in even after retirement, he's still there because he wants to be - then it's not on behalf of London Broncos, the money he loses on this club is loose change out of his bonus.
The second point, isn't that part of the problem? None of us know what's happening at the club at all, we're simply guessing. Four days on from the announcement and we've not heard a thing.

| It's no big surprise there's been no news yet, considering there's no back room staff at all. Who's there that can update facebook, twitter, do media releases? Nobody.
I think the plan is year 1 DH/GM 'run' the club. AK is so impressed with us that year 2 he buys in and takes over long term.
I think we all know what will really happen.

Gus.
Although I can well believe he can't turn a computer on.
Or write.
Or tie his shoe laces etc.

| Yep, I'm going to buy a season ticket.
I'm absolutely sick of all the negative e we get from a significant proportion of supposed RL fans from the north who would love nothing more than to see the Broncos lay down and die. I don't want to see any club die, particularly the one I've been watching since 1980. So this is my small way of saying "stuff you, you myopic, flat-capped morons".
Come on London

We have a club run by buffoons in terminal decline. How is that serving the best long term interests of RL down south ?

missed this part of your post or I would have been all over it like a fat kid at the pic'n'mix.
BARNET FC average 1,800 fans.......is letting them look after our marketing the master plan to get people interested in Rugby League?

I don't imagine that this would annoy them.
I'm not sure why you would do this. If you enjoy watching rugby then buy a season ticket but do it for positive reasons not because you think it will annoy someone that you will probably never meet.
