With (at present) a superiority in points difference of 233, London are effectively four and a half points ahead of Dewsbury. The latter team has 7 games (2 at home) to play and those are:

Batley (Bash)
York (Home)
Fev (Away)
Workington (Away)
Batley (Home)
Barrow (Away)
Sheffield (Away)

If anyone here can spot 5+ points there for Dewsbury, they should carry on sweating.

Toughie tomorrow but good luck.

Is this definitely being played at Plough Lane?

Yup we’re staying up. Question is whether we’ve learned anything this season and are taking a different approach next or whether we fancy being bottom feeders again next season. Not a good look if we want to grow attendance down Sarf.

My first year as a broncos fan wasn't about "winning"....it was about a new club playing a new (to me) sport in my neighbourhood. Yes, we need a better squad, but we need far more than that.......

2,182 for the season opener v fax......if they announce a gate for this next game, will it be 50% of that?

Apples and Orangemen. The game you allude to was at 'Fax. They always have a decent home crowd. Bongser was one of 2,022 at The Shay in March 2022 (see what he did there?) attending a match that was being streamed on a cold Monday night. Mind you, admission had been dropped to a tenner a pop.

FYI: Your season opener was at home to Widnes. What was the attendance then?

All the dross I’ve been served up with at Plough Lane and what happens when I can’t make it.... what a life. We appear to have turned a corner. No idea where it leads to mind but things look less dire.

Bong set I think he means our first home game this season which was against Widnes and had a 2k+ crowd why we even opened up 2 whole sides of our super modern ground. Not sure how many times it’s happened since as we were absolutely diabolical @ shambolic squad retention and recruitment.
