Why the interest? It's probably the most obvious metric as to whether we are continuing to decline, or starting to grow again. No we may never have enough fans to break even, but more would help to reduce the shortfall!

Spot on!!!!

By the shortfall, do you mean the shortfall in revenue? I was under the impression that London Broncos gain no direct financial benefit from attending fans, be that ticket revenue or bar/shop takings. Am I mistaken?

LOL Gutterfax must be tearing his hair out reading this thread and not being able to join in

You are pretty much correct although I hear that hospitality revenue goes into Broncos accounts and not directly to the Hive..

That makes perfect sense. I would imagine that the cost of entry is the Hive's but the profit on CorpHos would go to the club. Given the number of sponsors the Broncos have attracted this year, I suspect this will be a considerable amount and is a massive improvement on previous years. IIRC, 1 box was sold in 2008 at the Stoop.

Well I had use of a box in the stoop in 2008 for a game and I know of one other back that was booked for the whole season, so that's at least 2 in that season.

But, good to see club are trying to build on the sponsorship issue

You are correct, but the tone of my post was in the hope that this won't be the case forever.

going back to original subject!

i went on sunday with brother in law who had never been before and he enjoyed it and wants to go again.

Good atmosphere, i had forgotten what winning was like even though it looked like we might lose.

Give Doncaster Credit they finished 4th last season and were the only team to beat Leigh, apart from Rhinos challenge cup, last season.

On this forum? That's a novelty.

It'll never catch on!

Good news about the in-laws BroncoBond. Hopefully getting newbies and mates/relations to games that we win will encourage repeat attendance.

Exactly, a lot easier to get people to watch a contest, rather than one way traffic.
