Second thoughts don't, as I can feel a repeat performance coming on.

Well....with the positively gushing level of "good news" flowing from the club at present, I would have thought 2015's pricing and venue for home games would have been confirmed.......maybe with the helpful RFL explanation of how everything works next year. A quick glance around the country shows that the majority of the 24 clubs who will contest the 888 have already started selling tickets and that only 1 has yet to confirm its home ground ground for the season......I suspect "negotiations are ongoing" which is strange really given we were told it was a 2 year deal.

3 for the Bradford game Michael, Icelandic volcanic activity permitting. Other than that, I will wait to see what wondrous offers are available in regards to membership of the Hive, the fiscal benefit to being a member in regards to the shop, what from the shop is available for on-line purchasing and how much AK wants to "clip the ticket" with regard to postage to the foot of the world. There is also the small thing of where my "investment" would go...to the club or to the landlord who cares little for us or the game we follow. (other than clipping the ticket on cup final day as an over-spill car park facility)

I was right, nothing new to see here.

You really don't get it do you. Clubs announce when they are moving, not when they are staying. Point me to a news story from another club that says 'We will not be moving next season'.

As for tickets? It's a membership so there is no need to advertise a season ticket. Join when you like, leave when you want. I guess you're looking for another news story saying 'We are not selling season tickets'.

Until I see a credible story saying Broncos are leaving (despite telling NYT that they are staying at the Hive ) or that direct debits are being cancelled because the Hive are no longer running ticket sales then this is just hot air.

The tennancy arrangement between the broncos and the hive that ran for 2014 will not be the same as the one in place for 2015. The club (and RFL) were informed of this in July. I would expect the 185 broncos members would be told this before Octobers cash is taken

Then I suggest you give it a rest until then and see if the membership scheme does come to an end. As members pay in advance then we will know in 3 weeks time.

Sorry, probably my fault because I opened a window by suggesting that our signings might be enough to persuade me to make a few trips to Harrow next year.

Incredible.......relegation from the Championship this year closes the door on access to the 'MILLION POUND GAME'........surely heads will roll for this blunder.
