Hiya BT. Yes, Coach 28 was a no show but Bongser & his Bro-in-Law were shoehorned onto a lower numbered (and therefore earlier departing) coach that was well ahead of the motorway problems by the time they occurred (though seated apart).

Plenty of time to be fleeced for keg poop and bottles of pe. Shepherd Neame 1698 is this punter's preferment. Couldn't you mob have flooded Wembley with stashes from Ebbsfleet?

Seriously, despite Sunday's reversal, you're (after Batley's loss tonight) all but home and hosed for the playoffs. All the best against Keighley. Hughes is a genius!

Bongser will get his coat.

Delighted you got to the game . Yep I think we’ll be in play offs with an away game against a team we could beat or lose to depending on how the fancy takes us. After that it gets tricky but you never know.

[quote="The Curtism"A relatively good crowd[/quote]
Can't be bothered screen grabbing it again off a youtube video, but it was 500 at a stretch....relatively that's again P155 POOR and 4,253 was the SL average for the Bulls up to 2014 so yet another example of Hughes and his idiots having not the foggiest of what to do to attract anything like interest in the club from anyone other than a die hard 300 and a fair few visiting/expat northerners down for the game.

I assumed so but it does show what is lacking at the Broncos (and perhaps RL in general). LW have a stong club membership with all levels of play from minis up fully integrated and a long standing community presence. That takes a lot of effort to achieve but is done strategically and by involving the membership and particularly volunteers in all aspects of the club.

It's a demographic issue as well. A lot of RU supporters turn their noses up at RL and vice versa. Also RU is played in the private schools in London, RL isn't. Therefore the money's more likely to stay with RU.

Hughes / Loubster went out of their way to actually undermine LB members, many of whom would have gladly volunteered at the club.
Would any other 'professional ' rugby club ( or any sports club for that matter) do anything like this?






Rise like Lions after slumber
In unvanquishable number--
Shake your chains to earth like dew
Which in sleep had fallen on you--
Ye are many -- they are few.'
