The difference between us and them is that if their owner throws in the towel some other local business man will take over and try to make it work. We dont have that situation in London. When DH walks away its the end game and we all know it so we are reluctant to treat hi the same way.

Anthony Kleanthous?

Is he a lifetime supporter who wants to help his local club out?

No, but Barnét won't make much money, having another revenue stream would be ideal for Kleanthous, he's already looked to investing in RU.

Broncos 'potentially' could bring in more money than Barnét so would be a sound investment with a Chairman prepared to solve problems rather than let them fester.

Remember the 'towel' protest, in the end only a couple of us did it! So this time it has to be good and well supported! This is not just about the Broncos, it could be the death of 30 odd years of RL in London. It should not go out with a whimper!

Exactly.This is a bit trickier than just a "coach out" protest though, any ideas? I haven't got anything more original than a sign or banner with an "R.I.P. Broncos/London Rugby League" slogan attached, or how about "Bring back Ian Lenagan"?

Or maybe just encourage everyone to bring their own banners expressing their personal dissatisfactions, as I'm sure there are lots of different angles from which people are unhappy about things.

From one of the most famous protests of all time - against the screening of 'The Passion of St. Tibulus' on Craggy Island


'Down with this sort of thing!' (Careful now)

Any chance they could play Roy Orbison singing 'It's Over' on the PA on Thursday night? Or better still Michael Caine's version from the film 'Little Voice'?

They play 'It's Over' occasionally at the Skolars when a try is converted. The Hawaii 5-0 theme flummoxed some when the Skolars hit 50 recently!

They could play 'End of the World' by Skeeter Davis!


A new banner ' Those about to die - salute you' . Would be great on TV.
