Broncos need a Prince Charming to rescue them from the evils of IMG grading. 

They've had one for 25 years, unfortunately he's not stood and delivered any meaningful club infrastructure and just blown his wedge on first team players.

The Broncos deserve to be relegated solely on the basis of the god-awful logo they have.

If the IMG gradings don't encourage Mr Hughes to start doing this now I don't know what will

Was The Hive ever any good for London? I note Barnet FC are planning on returning to Underhill and i imagine the stadium will be lookin for a new tenant. Perhaps its somewhere they can start to put down roots. I read they're paying a fair whack to be at Wimbledon.

Always got the vibe it was a bit soulless, AJ Bell style. A record crowd of just over 2000 and it coinciding with the worst London Broncos side probably didn't help though.

On the plus side it's a short walk from a tube station and 5 minutes from the M1, so quite accessible for both London and Northern fans. The area itself isn't prime audience building territory, but staying anywhere for more than a couple of years and not putting out an awful team probably matters more.

It wouldn't be the worst option if Hughes/anyone else wanted to put together a proper multi-year plan.

It’s as good a ground as any London RL club aspiring a settled life in the SL could want for the next 30 years.

It’s almost equidistant from the M25 as it is from the North Circular for drivers with a pretty close tube station. It’s not the farthest place in the world to be fair and with a tube stop on the Jubilee only 12 stops (22-25mins) from Baker St. 

Modern facilities with training pitches surrounding and a good distance from League football clubs to build their own local profile over time.

Saw this video earlier - Thought it was good to see. I understand that the Broncos have been out and about in lots of local schools so hopefully it makes some impact.
