I remember getting some emails at the start of the year, that's been about it.

This time 14 years ago I was still glowing from the spanking on Wire at home and we were 3 fron 5 with a narrow loss to Wigan, heading for mid table obscurity with 3,400 fans
Now we're debating whether we'll beat Swinton and wondering what imaginary crowd number they'll pull out......
Thanks again Dave! You've really done a great job

Ramon Silva named in the machday squad, good to see. Plays with real energy and intent and offers us a bit of a point of difference in the forwards. Has caught the eye in the games he has played for us.

Their’s or ours? Wouldn’t suprise me if Wigan had a DR with Swinton as well?
As an aside what’s this with Champ sides loaning to other Championship sides? It’s getting the Scilly Isles where there are only 2 football teams and they swap players around at half time. @tinpot.

The game has been tinpot for years BT as well you know. The more the RFL promote from within, the more tinpot they become. Onwards & backwards should be the motto of both the RFL & Broncos perhaps?

Sadly very accurate. Every time I go on the BBC website and see it pushing Women’s football, I think how sad it is that RL haven’t managed to get any real exposure. Not the only decent sport either being rapidly crowded out.

Apologies, ours thankfully!

You're not wrong BT, Cricket has reinvented itself with T20 franchise comps & now the hundred to bring in sponsors, tv coverage & crowds although you could argue the shorter version of the game has been over 50 years in the coming having watched 40ov games on BBC2 Cavaliers v County teams in the mid 60s.

RL needs to reinvent itself too but I'm not holding my breath as too many owners just live & breath self interest.

It's The Nomads Derby - may the best nomads win!

In seriousness, a win today could really see your season take off. Merde (as we say in theatre).

I’m assuming the club’s on restricted SM again. Hope that gets itself sorted soon. Hoping for a good on field performance today. Off field? Hope springs eternal.
