£5 entry deal this weekend! And I'm still not bothering!!

I would have, for probably the one and only time this year if it hadnt been for the train strikes.

I am keen to see if the experience is as bad as I imagine it would be !!!

If you went last year you’ll be moderately but pleasantly surprised by the upturn, especially if you went in the first half of the season. If you went any other year- maybe not so much. Let’s hope for a win. This year we have beaten teams below us. Let’s see if we still can.

I went to the Widnes game and that left me scarred. I recovered sufficiently 23 rounds later to go to the Batley game. The dross on the pitch combined with ineptitude off it, the Plough Lane shambles and the complete lack of club direction, directed me to other pastimes after 20 odd years of week in week out support.

No question it’s all very poor from Broncos.
I’m mean that team and that ‘match day experience’ early doors last season was a spectacular failure of judgement. My gut feeling is our ‘efforts’ to get in new fans early last season despite the challenges and our incompetence weren’t wholly unsuccessful. The problem is what people saw they didn’t like. And frankly, quite right too. As an aside my son refuses to come to matches now as 2 seasons of nonsense has put him off. That sadly is the direct and I suspect common consequence of bad planning.
