And yup agree we go over things again and again, like having a go at the bloke who keeps london broncos going!

Yeah, he keeps Broncos going and yet is also the man who keeps holding us back - funny that isn't it?

And until he manages to keep us going AND actually move us in a forward direction there will be posts from the likes of me having a go won't there? If he were to mange to get us moving forwards there wouldn't be any need would there?

Maybe looking at moving to a stadium that is more suitable for a potential SL team is doing exactly that. Again repeating the obvious, without him there is no club thats already been shown a few years back.

It takes some commitment from anyone!! to back a club for so long! with his own money, and I, for one, say Thanks!

Re: Plough Lane Stadium - Wimbledon : Tue Dec 22, 2020 12:02 pm  

Yes he keeps us going, fair play for that but.... at the same time under his command we have lurched from one disaster to another, shelled fans quicker than anyone can count and ended up playing in a pimped up park!! Yes the club may owe him its survival but you also have to question that if he had made a better fist of it, the club would not need to rely on him.

Can't disagree, but how much is down also to those who have run The Club? At least there was a Tweet today asking are you ready to hear th3 name of some new signings?

True, but they are employed by DH!!

Playing in a pimped up park! But the hint of a move to a more suitable stadium ends up with negativity, bloke cant win

I say it how I see it. Im not going to heap loads of pointless praise on the club, and Im not going to needlessly knock it for no reason. Ive got no agenda against anyone and want desperately for the club to do well. This move to PL, has great potential if it comes off, it could kick start the club, but at the same time it does not make up for what you could call the "wasted" years when bad decision after bad decision has seen the club lose fans hand over fist and end up playing in a ground not fit for purpose (unless the aim is to become a mid table Champ club). My hope with this move is that the club has finally got its act together and has a real plan, rather than just saying "we are moving" one week and then expecting 3.5k to rock up the next week. As much potential as this move could have, it could also finish the club off it they get it wrong.

Put it this way, if DH were to walk away tomorrow, would his time at the Broncos be considered a success, considering where we have ended up?? Ill back the club all I can, that does not mean I will just sit back like a nodding dog when they are cocking things up.

For me this is a chance for onwards and upwards. We could be moving to a new/better facility, we have been linked to some decent players (and rumour that one may be coming back for next year) so I am trying to look at this positive. Dont let me down Broncos!!!

Moving ground is not, in itself, a solution. DH should know this from previous experience. If part of a broader plan to grow the appeal and viability of the club then fair enough. However, so far it seems Wimbledon fans have heard more about this potential move than Broncos fans.

Re: Plough Lane Stadium - Wimbledon : Thu Dec 24, 2020 3:23 pm  

Dont think anyone, including me has claimed ots a solution, but without changes nothing happens.
London has always been the same, in regards releasing news, and quite rightly on this one, no deal has been done, you cant and shouldnt trumpet news that is not fact.
The fact is the club are or have been in discussions, why do wimbledon fans know about it, well its a fan owned club so they have a vote in the decision
