Anyone got anything more solid than just a rumour about this? Seem to recall we had speculation about Leyton Orient recently that in the end amounted to nothing.

Bit different to what I heard, we are interested in Underhill!!!!

Apparently there is some stuff on Wikipedia (pinch of salt comes to mind) but have not read it personally.

One thing is certain, underhill is a poop hole!!!

Underhill!!

Jeez if some on here think the Hive will be a step down they'll be in for a hell of a shock at Underhill!

As a lifelong Arsenal fan, I have been to Underhill on numerous occasions and I can confirm the rumours that it is a complete sh*te hole!
Not seen the Hive but it has to be an improvement on Underhill

Re: The Hive next season? : Wed May 08, 2013 4:39 pm  

cant see how it could possibly be Underhill. If it isnt fit for a League 2 (now Conf) team with a similar fanbase as the Broncos then it isnt fit for SL. They're leaving because a)it's a dump and b)the council have blocked them doing anything with the place. Plus even in the unlikely event that the Broncos would want to move into an expensive dump that they cant modernise they'd also be moving slapbang into the middle of Saracens' new stomping ground. Hmmm, wonder who'd market themselves better in the area.
Underhill - no way, no how.
The Hive - a lot more likely. And with much more going for it short,medium and longterm. (plus it's nearer to my house etc etc)

I thought we were going to the Olympic Stadium.

Gus deserves a medal

The level of apathy and acceptance at the state the club are in and the selection of potential new rented homes on offer points to his job being almost complete.

If anyone had suggested back in 2009 that we would be either moving to Kent or a 3,500 seated capacity training ground and would be possibly dropping down a level in the comp they would have been burnt at the stake........4 and half seasons of Cricketing administration later and the sheep are happy with the travel arrangements to the abattoir

Cutting our cloth accordingly is one thing, but starving us for years before doing so to save even more money on material is criminal in my opinion.

Re: The Hive next season? : Wed May 08, 2013 9:56 pm  

Not necessarily apathy and acceptance. I'll admit to apathy but frankly unlikely to follow the club to most of the mooted grounds.

And there was me thinking we were going to have a ground share at Odsal. Just to keep it all neat and tidy in that M62 corridor

Excellent idea. That way, all those muppets who constantly moan about the Broncos having been given financial assistance by the RFL would actually be correct.
