London Broncos made rugby league history when they played first ever Super League game at their SW17 home in February 2024 against the 2023 Grand Final runners-up Catalans Dragons. The Broncos then upped the ante taking on 2023 Grand Final winners and 2024 World Club Challenge champions Wigan Warriors; holding them to a six-point deficit at half-time before losing 22-60. Gallant as they were the Broncos were ultimately outgunned by the top tier of English rugby league and relegated. It was the first time they’d played in the Super League since their rollercoaster 2019 season.
LIFE AT CHERRY RED RECORDS STADIUM
London’s sole representatives in the top two tiers of English rugby league have played their home matches at AFC Wimbledon’s Cherry Red Records Stadium since the start of 2022.
Now back in the Championship the Broncos are looking to rekindle the spirit that saw them reach giddy heights in 2023. On that occasion the Londoners stunned favourites Toulouse Olympique in the Championship Grand Final by 18-14 (see picture below). It capped off a remarkable season for the Broncos. They lost four of their opening five matches, only to battle back and make it to the play-offs. Famously they then defeated league leaders Featherstone in the semi-final ahead of their triumphant display against Toulouse.
2025 CHAMPIONSHIP SO FAR
The 2025 Championship season runs from February to September. Broncos got underway away at Bradford Bulls on Sunday 16 February. The Bulls registered a 20-6 win. But Broncos bounced back in Round 2 at Cherry Red Records Stadium with a 14-12 win over Featherstone Rovers. Liam Tindall scored two tries on his Broncos debut as was named ‘Player of the Match’. More success on home soil followed in Round 5 when Broncos handed Hunslet RLFC a 26-6 defeat.
Since then Broncos have endured a rollercoaster season and some agonising defeats. Including last time out against Oldham RLFC. The Londoners were leading their Greater Manchester opponents in the second-half only to be overhauled. Final score: London Broncos 18-20 Oldham.
After twenty two rounds of Championship action the Londoners are tenth in the table, on 12 points. Next up, Bradford Bulls come calling on Saturday 6 September. Can Broncos see off their West Yorkshire opponents at Cherry Red Records Stadium? Or will the visitors take the points back north with them? All rugby league roads lead to Plough Lane to find out!
