Wow that is spectacularly incompetent. For those not in the know this on the front page of LB website but when you click on it to read the story the top of the guy’s head is chopped off. I assume no one is, the IT content equivalent, of proof reading what goes on public display. Boy the sooner they get someone in the better.

I've emailed the club at hello@londonbroncosrl.com. Not Al lot else you can do but try to point out the mistakes and hope someone is listening.......kind of like what I've been doing for 20 years now....I should know better

In the big scheme of things these errors are unimportant but they are so avoidable you do wonder. Mind I’m happy for them to happen if the club are focusing on recruitment and devising a strategy for improving the match day experience and increasing crowds. I think they are just spread too thin, I wonder how their back room numbers match up to other Championship teams.

The website is out sourced to Key & Eagle and should be set up to render images automatically. Another of Monkeys acquisitions!!!

The club has 3 and a bit weeks to figure out how to get this from a probable gate of 1,500, to an achievable 2,500. But How? Unblock all social media users immediately. These fans aren't just 'keyboard warriors' but long time Season Ticket Holders who deserved better. They have also dragged many friends and family to games and if it were me, they should each receive 10 free tickets to this game. Apple launched the first Ever I-pad on April 3rd 2010. Get on the phone and ask if they'd like to celebrate by giving us 5 I-pads in return for Match Day sponsorship.....we could push their Apple TV offer hard to our base and have the prizes drawn at half time. GET THIS LOT ENGAGED as well as revive Buck'n'Dusty Free Kids Entry for every adult ticket bought Push this to the Bulls NOW Figure out how to hold a post match interview with the coach in the Pub or at least show it on TV screens downstairs Book a Band for outside the Pub post game BUY A FULL PAGE IN THIS offering $10 tickets for locals and free kids for all three of these games in return for their contact details. More expensive than a door drop, but 80,000+ houses hit locally has to be good. Revisit the schools and amateur clubs we've touched through the community team and get them back. In short, put on a show......let's not just stick posts in the ground and plead with fans to come along on twitter.
Dewsbury & Newcastle. both these games need a repeat of the above with a May Day theme for the first with Morris Dancers an whatever and maybe something to do with the RAF as its the anniversary of the Royal Air Corp............
Point is, we've ALL seen the trajectory of the crowds. Our first 3 at Griffin park were all near enough the same (4,200), Our first 6 at Stoop II were all pretty alike (3,500) with the exception off a HUGE gate for the St Helens opener, the first 6 were all about 1k at the Hive, then they gave up counting at Trailfinders fo a while....but it's fair to say 1k or lower was the first couple of years before back in SL we averaged 2k over the first 6 games.....but our first 3 here have seen a drop of 40%
Odds are the club will do nothing, citing no money, no staff etc, but this is the reality. Dewsbury and Newcastle are bolted on sub 1k's with Bradford a comfortable 1,500 thanks to away fans. We then vanish for 7 weeks before returning to another sub 1k gate befor a hammering at the hands of Fev that nobody will want to pay to watch....by the time we return we may well already have one foot in League 1.......and that really will be a hard sell!
BUMP 18 Days since I posted this and the club have (AFAIK) done nothing to address the marketing of these 3 games. To be clear, other than the trip to Barrow, which we didn't bring anyone to, to update social media, what has the back office staff been doing? Monkey? During this period he has been employed, because he's self promoted himself and his replica tat on twitter, but nothing else. Lobster? If you're the CEO of Glaxo SK, then I am sure you have people in place, but this clown is CEO of a 2nd tier Semi-Pro RL side supposedly at the start of a 5 year campaign to achieve SL and self sufficiency, he needs to roll his sleeves up and get busy. 2 adverts for jobs that could and should be done by one person and a message back to me on twitter saying their pleas for volunteers had fallen on deaf ears is about all I can see that he has achieved this season. The club scored their first point of the season and it took 2 days for this to be mentioned on the club site....Twitter is tumbleweed.....but finally the banner on the club site takes you to buy tickets for the Bradford game after being broken for 17 days but there are still glitches on the ticketek site.....what important "CEOing" has kept Loubser from doing some of these tasks?
I can only imagine how both our new hosts and Mr Hughes are viewing this epic start to our "partnership" on a journey to self sufficiency, but I can categorically say that no matter their public musings, neither can be particularly happy.
So. Bradford, like ourselves have this weekend off this week and will fancy this match as a chance to get themselves into the play-off spots. Looking at their site and our ticketing, 6 (SIX) people have bought tickets in the south stand and there doesn't appear to be a supporters coach running from what I can gather on social media. We will have not been at home for close to a month and yet the club as done nowt to keep interest going. We only narrowly lost to York and the "vibe" was apparently better, but nothing has been done to tap into that.....emails, Twitter and the club site are all free avenues but nothing has been done to keep fans engaged.
Is the belief that the new social media person ad commercial person will suddenly pull 1,000 fans out of the hat when they start?
