Historical blx eh?
How is anything I posted in this thread based on anything other than the NOW?
FACT: Landlord gets paid rent
FACT: Landlord gets paid by RFL to market us
FACT: Landlord gets cut of ticketing revenue
FACT: Landlord gets all bar and food revenue
FACT: Landlord admits he could so better.
Historically (just for you), we've all been here before and got various T-shirts.....I fail to see how some on here expect anything different this time around!'"
So what?

| Quote Paddock Punter="Paddock Punter"Are you pleased with the squad?'"
I don't think anyone is pleased as we sure are lacking good experienced players. I think if this deal had been sorted earlier before other matters at the RFL etc. sidetracked things we would have got better players who the club had lined up. However, s**t happens and we are where we are as a result. We are certainly not going to finish in the top eight this season so just avoiding relegation is the target. (Should please people who want to see something at stake) If we get a few more experienced players such as is being discussed we may pull it off. Next season we will really have to get better if we stay up as the worst 2 teams will have gone so lets just win this battle first. Of course under the new 8x8x8 format we'd be playing off against the best in the championship then so maybe it wouldn't be the end of the world even though a bit scary for those of a nervous disposition.

| What are these other matters at the RFL that sidetracked things. The club brought the whole mess on themselves!

| Paddock, I am really disappointed that we lost assets like Lee, Soward, Clubb, Melling, Kaufusi, Fisher, Bryant & Bailey from the squad and the Youth coaches plus Steve on the PR side.
There's also a lot of hardworking folk whose contribution would be hard to evaluate from outside the club who have also gone who it is a shame to see go.
But we have also shed staff and players from a regime that has seen us in the bottom three since 2007 so we have also got rid of liabilities and also the Stoop which I was fed up with, though I appreciate it was on your doorstep.
And in fairness many of these assets were predetermined to go with offers from the two trophy winning clubs and in some cases a mind already set on retirement.
So the losses in many cases were inevitable.
I'm not delighted with what has gone on but whatever your thoughts on Gus, David, Tony K and Tony Rea and the Hive and the players they are all we have and we have to move forward or be cancerous cells that attack the host to the detriment of it.
For man with no forgiveness in heart, life is worse punishment than death

| Quote markrammond="markrammond"Each club in Super League will get £1.85 million which is enough to pay the salary cap in full.
Sponsorship is on top plus David Hughes contribution and a new potential contributor waiting in the wings.
The ground is now nicely sorted out for two years with no £25k a match rent anymore
We also have a willing partner to work with.
I am really pleased.
'"
Selco is less than 30k a year.......that's the sponsorship cash dealt with, first team costs including travel and a com are well above 1.85
David Hughes is not dropping 2 mill a year any more
The stoop was 200k a year not 325k
The new contributor is currently RECEIVING cash an investing nothing.......he's even on the take from the RFL for marketing FFS!
Surprised at the amount on here prepared to swallow the spin being rolled out

| Stoop not on my doorstep. Don't know about your philosophy heroes but. Those who follow blindly will probably bump into something, or step in a pile of sh*t.

| Quote Paddock Punter="Paddock Punter"I don't mind being attacked for making comments that I believe in so here goes.
When someone suggested that London be dropped from the name The Warder said that "London is a massive market to tap into". What puzzles me is that
A/ the Broncos don't gain whether there are 10 people at the game or 10,000, TK does and he seemed only interested in local marketing
B/ has this massive market just occurred, I could have sworn it was there before and we did nothing about it.
Have to say all the new broom stuff and how it was going to be better this time etc was a bit like Groundhog Day from previous moves. The difference this time is the quality of team doesn't look adequate.'"
There is a tendency to look at the one year rather than the buy in to the future. The idea is an incentive for the following year. Personally I doubt it and quite frankly that it will probably be the full stop that is coming at the end of 2014.

Not really. It just means other senses are POSITIVELY hightened. With even positive guidance from a Guide Dog/Walking Stick to still live a happy and progressive life, no matter the obstacle. Just ask David Blunkett.
Stay Positive Broncos! Can't wait for a positive team and atmosphere at The Hive

| All depends on two big signings, if they are big enough we could stay up!

| There would have been more fans at the forum if it hadn't been on at the same time as the Hemel game.

| I thought it was good of them to just come clean and say yeah we messed up, we've learned the lesson the hard way and now we're actively going out to communicate with people.
2/3 more potential signings on the way and TK sounding genuinely enthusiastic, at least give them a year in the new surroundings with different people on board in an intimate stadium more suited to London current fan base.
I know London are not my team but I care a lot about the club, GF I know you're aware of everything that is wrong about the club and no one is asking you to stick your head in the sand but seriously just being negative all the time isn't doing anyone any favours. Everyone is aware the club is still in the crap, but they don't need it ramming down their throats.
London are starting again from scratch, they need all the positivity they can get.
