This is what the article says. Because that link seems to be messing up. Still won't believe it until I see it...
London Broncos near Aussie takeoverAn Australian consortium is close to completing a takeover of London Broncos as they plot a return to Super League. A group of businesses is understood to have agreed terms with David Hughes, who has owned the Broncos for 28 years, and an announcement could come as soon as next month.The sale has been brokered by Leeds Rhinos’ long-serving chief executive Gary Hetherington, who will join the Broncos at the end of the season, and former Leeds and New South Wales forward Matt Adamson, who has relocated from Australia to help run the club. In addition, the club’s new leadership group has agreed affiliate deals with several NRL clubs, including Penrith Panthers and the new Brisbane-based Dolphins franchise, that will allow them to take their top youngsters on loan. The Broncos’ new owners are determined to return the club to Super League, which could expand to 14 clubs next season, and have already held talks with IMG about how to improve the grading score that determines membership of the top division. The Championship club will continue to play at AFC Wimbledon’s Cherry Red Records this season, but a future ground move for the nomadic club has not been ruled out.

| Victor:
April 15th at the Australian High Commission, that is when and where the big announcement is to happen.
Shame it won't be Sir Les Patterson making the announcement.

Who knows Benny, but to be fair, no official announcement was made about an announcement being made! . From what I can see it was somebody saying someone said it was happening. Nothing is ever straightforward in Bronco land.

Deadcowboys1:Who knows Benny, but to be fair, no official announcement was made about an announcement being made! . From what I can see it was somebody saying someone said it was happening. Nothing is ever straightforward in Bronco land. How very true.Bit of a worry though I was wondering before reading Steve Mascord if the ‘big announcement’ and Tony Rea’s presence in the legends lounge were more than a coincidence……..

You may be right. I have to say I always enjoyed talking to Tony back in the day & given our lack of real rugby league expertise currently at the club, would be more than happy for him to be involved in some way (assuming he isn't). Player, Coach & CEO, he must have something to offer.
