The only thing Towel averaged in the 40 percentile range was points conceded per game.
Towel conceded 34.93 points per game over 47 SL matches.....we scored 19.19 per game during his tenure, with a W D L ratio of 19% - 2% - 79%.
This was David Hughes appointment and when combined with the matching book ends of Blanchard and Mackay, it has gone a great deal of the way to condemning London Broncos to the wilderness that will be the middle 8 at best, but in reality, the bottom 8 within 2 or 3 years.
Eloquent appeals by Mark Rammond for fans to return are all well and good, as is the confession in the Salford Programme and the self flagellation at the forum, but the REALITY is that it is too little too late. Tony Rea was hamstrung by someone else's squad in 2013 resulting in the highest ever losing margin average in SL for London at 17 points a game......now as a direct result of David Hughes "wobble" in October, we are currently running at a 30 point loss per game.
Tony Rea wanted to split the season into groups of 4 games.
Group 1 is done..... we are on 0 points.
Group 2 is Wakey at Home followed by Leeds Away, Castleford at home and Wigan away. Come out of that with anything less than 2 points and we're on the edge.
Group 3. Dragons (H), FC (A), Saints (A) and Huddersfield at Home.......then it's Magic weekend....less than 6 points at the end of round 14 and we're gone!
