I dont think they will lure in supporters. We are not in SL this season. After this pandemic where finances are tight we should have stayed at Trailfinders with the same pricing for one more season and built for a SL place. Bookies have us at anywhere from 4th to 6th place so are not supporting us in SL next season. No friendlies so far announced this season so why move and why price hike. Its sad but whoever had the final say on this is blinkered and could cost the club a lot of their long term fans especially if this page is anything to go by.

Northernbloke. Do you not think that Broncos SL attendance figures are not affected by the number of away fans attending our games.
I will accept our home fanbase has never been massive, but our away fan numbers have I believed declined for may reasons.
The close proximity of the Super League teams in the North makes away fans attendance to games easy within the Yorkshire or Lancashire groupings.
Inflating crowd numbers, these insular fans can watch an away game and be home in time to take the whippet out for a walk.
Sure St Helens to Hull KR is a bit of a stretch, but it is all Motorway between the two. An easyish day out.
Fans used to come away to London games and make a weekend of it. Now Catalan is seen as a better option which is quite understandable.
Catalan is possibly a cheaper weekend than a London weekend in truth.
Home fans is London Broncos problem for sure. Not enough of them and the club also does its very best at times, to pee off some of those that they still have.

We will attend some games but not all. We are going to hold off on membership at least until Bradford game and make a decision then on what we do this year, We will probably attend bradford game (if allowed), but not with my dad as want to take a view of the public transport trip as can't park there.

I think tbh we won't bother with membership and pick games we attend (25 for ticket + 20 for train / bus dad would be 18 ticket). I can see us going to bradford, halifax, tolouse,york,widnes games at max (not going to fev game if on public transport, they have a lot of great fans, but they also have an undercurrent of supporters which I would not like to be stuck on a bus with).

Now if it was 15 or 20 a ticket, I might have been persuaded to go to games like Oldham, Worky, Batly etc but not for 25GBP + travel costs....

Will know better after Bradford game

One thing that might have made a season ticket attractive this year was retaining your current seat(s).

I'm hopeful to catch a couple of home games this season and maybe squeeze in an away trip. there again if the streaming takes off and isn't excessively crap I may just sit on my fat round butt and enjoy more beer at home, lol. Bookies have us 4th to 6th they say, but quite frankly I'm looking at the Championship and can see almost anyone winning it and almost anyone going to League 1, lmao!






Long live the Fulham-London Crusaders-Broncos Harley-Quids Broncos (again) RLFC!

Bosty not sure what the point is. Sorry i got the numbers wrong its actually 3400 and a bit. Catalans are about 8300. Crusaders al be it only over 3 seasons sit at about 3900.
All i was doing was highlighting the figures

The point being made (quite rightly) is that our SL attendances are more influenced by away fans than other clubs. We used to be seen as a good away trip (perhaps when the club made more of an effort to have a matchday experience). So not only has the home fan base steadily dwindled but the travelling fan is now showing up in fewer numbers.
