| Other clubs have crashed and come back. The only issue I have is that we actually had been on the way back, yes very slowly but season on season we was growing at Ealing, each season brought a few more fans, and the squad improved until we finally made it back to SL, and then almost survived and scared the pants off everybody. Look at Leigh right now, and if Fev go up this year, they also won't win a game next year either.
My issue is that I actially saw a future for the club again with how we progressed at Ealing, yes we needed to move from Ealing at some point, but now was not the time. Like it or not it was cheap, it was perfect for Championship RL, and rebuilding after covid and relegation would have taken the squad at least 2 seasons to get back into SL. Then you move at that point, you increase ST prices once we get promoted, but you keep them as is right now.
Increasing Ticket prices like they have done, while no money at all spend on Squad, is what has killed this for most people. I cannot believe we are paying less at PL then we are paying at Ealing, so to move to a stadium where the rent is higher when income is going to be less just makes no sense. Also you can't go part time paying the sort of rent we have to pay at PL

Family tickets? Hmm...I recall 2 adults and 2 kids for a SL game was an option for £40 at most Quins RL games.....now it's £60 .'"
Nope it's £70. £20 for mum and dad each and £15 each for my 6 and 9 year old
I know because that's where we were all going last Sunday until I tried to buy the tickets. Saw the price rise and went myself only. Seems everyone did as there virtually no children at all unlike before
Final straw - I'm done and not going again unless there are serious changes to everything
Might even change my forum name!

Pay attention Northernbloke......apparently, I was wrong and as usual, your apologetic version was right?.......

The problem with Forum admins is they're damned if they do and damned if they don't. Because the repetitive message upset people and they collectively whined, the Mods shoot the messenger......by the time they realise the Message was on point, they'll never admit they made a mistake.
This Forum, like Total RL, was born from fanzines. As a fan of the London Broncos I was alarmed at how badly the game was run when I became a fan. On viewing forums like this, I noticed that there was a weird need to slag of union? As a fan of both sports and not a factory/pitworker in 1890, I found this bizare...so started to compare the games fortune, the marketing, the growth decline and forecasted the eventual outcome....and guess what? The Superleague is now on special offer with SKY and the Broncos are about to vanish up their own 'arris.....
...so don't change your name. Be proud to be a Bedfordshire Bronco fan and remember the good times, but never EVER let the establishment (that's the RFL fanzine guys from 25 years ago who defended the minority and the ones who now ban people for realists and anti THEIR ESTABLISHMENT)....they know where they can stick the red flag now theyve got the foreman job at last

Other people want to talk about other things. It's not all about you. Get over it.

They “plural” (not Al) are behind the scenes influencing issues, playing Monkey, managing social media, banning people, running the SC (monkeys bunch of bananas)………. Back slapping each other, slating the deserters without thinking has this crowd dwindled, is the club going backwards, is this a poor team… they don’t get it.
They like the short term adulation they are getting.

| *playing Monkey,*
WQ this is the only thing I would disagree with you about. It is the other way round those supporters are Monkeys yes men (and woman), he plays them like a fiddle and they agree because they think he is the second coming of Christ. They really do not realise he pulls their strings.

You have been on this forum long enough to know that, whether you like it or not, thread titles won't constrain what people want to talk about.

| Given that many of the posters on this thread have ceased watching the club, whether temporarily or permanently, and are busy happily doing other things, I'd suggest London Broncos is far from the only important thing in their lives.
The challenge is for Broncos to either win them back or to generate a new support after the move. It would be interesting to hear from the club what their fan attraction and retention policies will be once the move is done.
That should move the debate along if nothing else.
