Yes there is WQ, the Gold Lounge is available other than the 2 Ebbsfleet games if you're keen!

I've not seen anything about assistant coaches which is concerning because although Cake got a few good games out of the players when Mustard was sacked he is unproven and the team fell off again at the end of the season.

So 3 months after this thread was opened, the answer to the question was 3 Australians and no announcements on players who have left. If we’re planning on getting anymore in I assume we will be applying the business model from last year and recruiting only when we are in the mire. No loanees either. Hmmm...not filling me with confidence.

Interesting tweet on LB feed signposting to RL site’s detailing of the confirmed ins and outs at Championship clubs. Unclear what’s behind it. Surely not “look at our signings - we’ve pulled up trees here” or “look at our signings compared to other clubs- not so bad is it” or “we’ve had so many incomings you may have lost track” (BTW very few of the outgoings have been captured and our incomings include Monk but none of the other academy step ups which I’m not sure count anyway as already at the club). On balance I think they may have lost the plot. Makes difficult reading.

Thought pretty much the same BT. Then they follow up with offering a replica shirt for pre-order, but based on the previously seen graphic not pictures of a genuine shirt. Can't believe at least 1 shirt hasn't been produced yet.

Yes that is exactly what I thought too DC. I fully endorse selling replica shirts but (a) putting up for ‘pre-sale one whole month before the season kicks off feels sub optimal to me. Did we really ‘plan’ it this way? I’d humbly suggest putting on the market for Christmas is probably the best way to go going forward (like pretty much every other team); and (b) they are asking quite a bit for people to buy a shirt based on a pretty early computer based draft. Did the club fall asleep during the closed season and dream that last season wasn’t a complete ba**s up and that we did in fact need to learn lessons and get our A game on for the start of the season. I fear for the proposed fan park but most of all if we don’t get some players in will we even be able to fulfill our fixture list?

Obviously you have not been following Broncos that long, I have followed Broncos for 25 years and I can count on one finger the number of times the new shirt has been available for Christmas.

Capital Challege is coming up but don't see Broncos pushing it. Would be a good opportunity to sell new kit.

What’s their strike rate been like on having kit ready before the season starts?
