Sadly you can't sack the owner & he has too much invested to walk away. He will never get those millions back but he can only salvage something if he sells the club as a going concern.

Mind you who would want to deal with a lunatic like Hughes?

For the sake of RL in London, Hughes top priority should be to find a suitable backer who he can give the club away to. Some have thought of him as the saviour of the Broncos but he is now the saboteur.






Gus Mackay we salute you!!

He has killed the club.....nobody will ever deal with him.

He is also the saboteur of Skolars.

If we lose at the next game at York surely Hughes has to go as owner - if he's able to dump us debt-free. What's the (eldest?) son doing to take the club forward in the meantime? I can't stand what has happened to the 'mighty London Broncos' or even LondonRL clubs as a collective.

T if you look at the squad it’s not whether we lose but by how much. I’d like to think we’re resting a few for the important Dewsbury game ....but we aren’t.

If we lose to York AND Dewsbury were stuffed. I havn't seen any input from the Hughes (eldest?) son so far. We may still beat York given a miracle given that only Alex, Lewis & Dean have high-level experience. Don't know if newbie Brock will be our saviour without seeing him play.

A few weeks back I suggested that about now would be a reasonable time for decision makers to let us know how they thought it was going and what next steps were.I suppose it’s a moot point now with the departure of coach and assistant and comfortable loss to bottom of the league side. Difficult to know what they would say. Maybe we’ll hear from them by the end of the season. If I was marking their performance I’m pretty sure I know what I’d give it.
