Question I'd ask is who signed a deal for the training ground than ran a year longer than our deal to play at the stoop
Given Gillingham was on someone's wish list, I find it incredible anyone would be stupid enough to sign up for extra years.....

Probably the same person who in the end decided to ignore what was on offer at Gillingham. SL suicide and I assume he is still CEO.

Wrong!
Message received from London:
Training ground was on a rolling lease with a termination clause that has been exercised and the club no longer operates from there...so is not an issue.
Things are looking more positive (than last Wednesday Evening) with 2 options on the table.
Personal attacks are not appreciated, especially when the attackers aren't in possession of all the facts and both Gus and TR are working 24/7 to sort this out because they care.

I am all for backing off, but the fact that I had to post a snide comment about the training ground lease (which I now accept was incorrect) to illicit a response from the club speaks volumes as to the frustration that must be being felt by you guys in London.

Still.....I suppose any news is welcome

A couple of Ian Ramsdale tweets today:

My understanding is that it's vital to the club's future that London Broncos avoid going into administration

and

I've head a few stories of things being done in attempts to prevent it. Deadline for a solution/administration Dec 4th

I still fail to understand why they don't see the importance of communication with "the outside world". Accepted that many matters must remain confidential, but that surely doesn't mean that they can say absolutely nothing. And, if there is a valid reason that they can't talk, why don't they at least say that?

So basically, you were being a snide, got it wrong, again, and have been the most vicious and vociferous in your personal attacks.

Nope.
I responded to a poster who said one of the stumbling blocks to salvation was the training ground, by asking who the love would have signed a longer lease on the training ground than stoop when they knew we were leaving........I didn't say that the lease was longer, just asked who would be responsible if it was.

As for personal attacks.......get a loving grip. You have a bee in your bonnet regarding my stance on the failings and errors of the CEO, yet Gus and I still communicate directly in a civil manner.....why is it you are so upset? I blame Gus for the non-required name change and I blame Gus for the drop in fans by 34% on his watch. I also blame him for the move away from a perfectly good rugby stadium, I blame him for our homelessness, the "home" games played away from home last year at the request of the landlords, have I mentioned the reduction in Season Ticket sales?, the farcical situation with a cricket manufacturer supplying our kit and very very limited club shop stock.....I don't blame him for Shooting Kennedy, but I believe he may have been in Dallas that weekend......GUS Knows what I blame him for, yet he still communicates with me....while you get pissy? Why is that?

Pretty simple.

You're a snide because "the fact that I had to post a snide comment"

You got it wrong because "which I now accept was incorrect"

And you have been the most vicious and vociferous in your personal attacks because "you made several vile and deliberate personal comments about him in the past, copping one up the gary etc etc."


Thanks for letting us know "Gus and I still communicate directly in a civil manner"

Look at me everyone, look at me!!!

If they don't want us to make assumptions, then they should try talking to us once in a while instead of treating us like a bunch of idiots.
