Yes those buckets of VB went down well at Brentford.

This is what the article says. Because that link seems to be messing up. Still won't believe it until I see it... London Broncos near Aussie takeover An Australian consortium is close to completing a takeover of London Broncos as they plot a return to Super League.  A group of businesses is understood to have agreed terms with David Hughes, who has owned the Broncos for 28 years, and an announcement could come as soon as next month. The sale has been brokered by Leeds Rhinos’ long-serving chief executive Gary Hetherington, who will join the Broncos at the end of the season, and former Leeds and New South Wales forward Matt Adamson, who has relocated from Australia to help run the club.  In addition, the club’s new leadership group has agreed affiliate deals with several NRL clubs, including Penrith Panthers and the new Brisbane-based Dolphins franchise, that will allow them to take their top youngsters on loan.   The Broncos’ new owners are determined to return the club to Super League, which could expand to 14 clubs next season, and have already held talks with IMG about how to improve the grading score that determines membership of the top division.  The Championship club will continue to play at AFC Wimbledon’s Cherry Red Records this season, but a future ground move for the nomadic club has not been ruled out.

Hughes gave up ownership in December and has no controlling interest in the club. If there are negotiations with him it would seem to me that they could only be about the extensive loans he gave to the club which I assumed he would have written off. It would be a shame if Hughes, having stopped wanting to play with his train set, is putting any deal at risk. Regardless, with new ownership I think we may see the extent to which he has held the club back over the years.
