Maybe...

The source seems to be the Australian Daily Telegraph. Not sure if this is a reliable paper though.

It is a rag that more often than not tells lies.
The “company" is essentially a travel agency that sells premium packages for events. No financials available and rhe other 2 named "directors" have limited background information. Unless I am missing something, owning the London Broncos would deliver these guys nothing other than debt.....

Less than 48 hours and we will know
The league fixtures and therefore if we make the starting line…

Let's hope for Toulouse away in the summer & we are still in business for the fixture.

That is exactly what I am hoping for.

It seems to have gone very quiet. I appreciate that there might be NDA's and things going on if there is any activity regarding the sale of the club (though you would expect some rumour or mention in the RL press) but even if there isn't, what update is there? I see the incredibly regular pushing of the 2025 membership, which was a cornerstone of the club's survival for 2025 but how is that going? Have the club reached the number required? If not, how far away are they? Also, what about the "longer" term and 2026? Is it just going to be a case of the same thing in October next year where the club begs for so many memberships?

All we really know is the team will start the season. Everything else is guess work. I assume if we had new recruits we’d have promoted the fact so it will be the ones we know about plus these trialists. Perhaps like me you’ve tried to watch the training posts and see if there are any familiar faces. I’ve not seen any. They look pretty young to me- which is a worry. My gut tells me this could be long old season or a very short one but what can we do except turn up and support the side. If it’s well below the standard then I don’t know about 2026 but that could well be a moot point. Hopefully some backers will turn up.

We can but hope Santa answers the call to arms & leaves us a dozen or so decent players & a new owner with more money than sense, all neatly gift wrapped.
