Is this the same Tony Clubb who's asked for a release from London a year early as he's "sick of losing".

Poor show when your captain states that publicly

Don't hide behind subjective nonsense and then don't even refer to it when SL that have flouted these criteria get given a licence. What is fair about that?

P&R seems pretty fair and cut and dried to me.

You show me financial robustness and I show you Halifax’s history over the past decade! Pot,Kettle,black

We have had our issues and are now solvent having played the last 10 (or so) years playing in the 2nd tier.

We got no help or handouts to stay in the top league. Why? because our face didn't fit - simple.

its about time they gave up on London, however I have a sneaky feeling they might end up at Wembley this year. The RFLs last chance gamble to persuade Londoners to go watch them.

Funny thing is, if this happens and they do get there. Any Londoners that might like to give the Broncos a try next season -

"where do the Broncos play their home games then?! I am quite enjoying this, sign me up for next year!"

the answer to that question is laughable.

Go on then.....................Unless I missed something in the last 10 years we havnt gone in to administration, recievership, or gone belly up. In that reguard it almost makes us one of the best run clubs in the sport.

Quote, Uncertainty also surrounds the club's future off the pitch, with their tenancy at the Twickenham Stoop ending this year amid speculation of a move to Barnet.

"It is frustrating because no one knows what is going on," Clubb added.

"The club's telling us nothing, Tony is telling us nothing.

"We haven't got a ground yet, we are losing 12 players and it's pretty daunting. We need it out in the open."

Come on man stick it out, Bronco's are my second favourite team.
They beat the seagulls.

John this is nowt to do with Rugby from what ive heard around 6 foolish people , just watch in the coming months .

WTF are you on about?How many times during the last 15 years have Fax been out cap in hand begging for money to save the club? Your new stand took forever to complete, you sold thrum hall and all that money got swallowed up, when you got relegated you nearly went bust and, then you nearly went into liquidation and got bailed out by one of your directors. Just saying it seems strange that you spit venom at these other clubs when you yourself seem to be in the mire quite often. All this “ our face doesn’t fit” stuff is drivel as well, if you had a good enough model last time you would have got in. Why would the RFL have some hidden agenda aginst you? A) its not legal and b) well there is no B) because a ) was so good.

Bradford
Wakefield
Crusaders
Salford

Is this the model of superiority? A level playing field is all we ask. Be judged evenly. Some clubs are Teflon coated and "iconic" - no matter how much they rake the game through the mud (Bradford last year were a complete and utter joke!!).

Re: London bricking it : Thu Jul 18, 2013 10:38 am  

Jesus wept - he's a Salford fan !!!!

Can you believe that???? You should be lecturing NO-ONE about a club's viability!

Get off our board you moronic troll.

Nearly this, nearly that......
