Bill Leyland: "My decision to leave was an extremely difficult one. I love London Broncos."

 A message from Bill Leyland ahead of his move to Hull KR;

“My decision to leave was an extremely difficult one. I love London Broncos, it’s the club I have been at since I was 14 and it provided me the opportunity to develop and progress in the game playing at all levels of scholarship, academy, reserves and first team. 

Firstly I would just like to say a massive thank you to all involved at the club and especially Mike, who gave me my debut at the club at 19 years old and the following season he trusted me enough to put me in the 17. 

It was such a great season and the Broncos have provided me with my favourite rugby league memories that I’ll never forget. Secondly, I’d like to say a massive thank you to the fans that have always supported me throughout the highs and the lows, it’s been a pleasure to play in front of you and to always give my all for the shirt. 

It has been a true honour to be part of such a great club and I will miss everything about Broncos but the opportunity to sign for one of the most exciting teams in Super league and develop my skills further was too good of a chance to turn down and is a challenge I am eagerly awaiting.”
