Probably and the RFL have only temselves to blame.
The RFL have no interest in clubs outside the M62 corridor
every club within and outside the m62 region has exactly the same opportunity of being in SL. Some have grasped that chance and others havent. Thats not the RFL's fault or problem.

Maybe someone needs to ask Hughes why after all the money he has spent were the club still ranked 24th and no where near being a SL club?

Hughes when he thought they had no chance of promotion: 'Yes we need a grading system'
Hughes now his team has fluked a spot in SL: 'We should be exempt from everything and allowed to stay'

The Broncos are in Super League on merit this season after the beat Toulouse in the Championship Grand final last season.

yes because that was the agreed P&R system in place last year. But it isnt this year, they voted yes for the grading system to come in this year. Bit late in the day to now say they should be entitled to not be part of the system. Especially given how badly the club has rated.

and the pack of cards tumbles. Hopefully someone who knows what they are doing takes over and elevates them to a genuine sustainable SL club.

Depends who the new owner is

If it’s Ian leneghan (used to part own the Broncos and then owned Wigan before selling it)

Hughes invested around 30 million pounds into London over his tenure
Some fans are hoping that the NRL takes them over.
I'm not sure if the NRL would be interested, but with a population of over 9 million there would be a large untapped source of young athletes who would be capable of playing Rugby League to a decent standard or above WHO COULD BE assets to NRL clubs

Not just a huge untapped market of young athletes but thanks to today’s social media a bigger presence and opportunity for the NRL to gain more fans as well.
