Is supporting the club your definition only?

Where does it say you must support a club to comment on a forum?

I welcome both your responses.

Well to me it seems natural members of a forum, for that club, support it! yes we can all be disappointed with things about a gane or the club, but constant whining, it's not what I would do, lots of better things to do.

Most forums for a club, do support it, yes we get visitors, supporters from chubs we are playing, I've never visited any other forum.

Monday morning here. Wake up, boil kettle, check BBC for London Broncos result. (No.match thread here yet?)
Have a wardrobe with about 20 Broncos shirts coats hats etc....not sure how much more of a "fan" I can be from the other side of the planet.

The doom and gloom surrounding the club is 100% self inflicted and therefore worthy of investigation and discussion. The game on Sunday v Swinton will hopefully get a thread soon, but don't be surprised when the attendance creeps into it. $15 for a child has (according to people I know) turned quite a few families away. It was a mistake to raise prices before the club knew where they were playing. It was a mistake to try and shoehorn us into a new venue too early and Wimbledon should have been for the 2022 season.
On the field, we are bang average. Level with cellar dwellers at half time then behind to them.....Fev are going to eat us next week.

That sums it up!! The lack of (edit: NOT) knowing the home ground did it for me. I'm saving £100 a weekend by not attending in the meantime.

I was planning to put a review of the game in the Swinton thread when I got home from the game today but basically the words awful, shocking, useless, absymal sums it up. Worse than last week vs Haven (if that was even possible).

I know we got the 4 games for £60 offer, but I am really not sure I can endure another 2 games of the dying embers of the club which was once London Broncos, and which only 2 years ago beat teams like Saints and Wigan at Trailfinders.

Interesting how quiet NB has gone whilst the rest of the apologists have disappeared completely. Even they can’t defend the club anymore

Re: Whithaven Home : Mon Jun 28, 2021 8:38 am  

How many were at the game ?

It felt that we had at least the same as Haven,maybe a few more, but still in the 300-350 range max

Will probably be more for the York game, but that will be York fans not London ones

WQ not quiet at all. Was not at the swinton game so cant comment. This thread is no longer about the haven game its turned into a rant about how the club is run. As you say i am an apologist, and as such not intetested really in continued commenting on how the xlub should be run or who should be doing what! I cant change any of that, all i can do is turn up watch the rugby support my team.
No longer defending the club is an intetesting comment though, i have only evr said i have no say in the way the club is run! Therfore its pointless me saying how i think it should be run, DH pays the wages, without him no wages paid simple fact. I cant change that, if thats being an apologist fine am an apologist
