They won’t give a shit about playing for the shirt or our supporters as they will be going back to their parent clubs at the end of the season.As for players of the quality that we need, we won’t be prepared to pay the wages they will be asking for.People I know in the game have repeatedly told me that Rovers are known for not paying particularly high wages.Compared to who though hound. Sheff Wed, Sunderland, Ipswich, Portsmouth or Accrington, Crewe, Cheltenham, Burton. Our wages are competitive for League 1. Now neither you or I know whether that is factual mate, do we.Well unless GB is lying then we do. Our budget is 14th highest in League 1. So 13 higher and 10 lower. So competitive. 1st/10th/14th/24th...it doesn't matter what it's seen to be, the club has been signing poor players recently and that shows on the pitch....You don't win nothing in the boardroom...Football matches are won on the pitch....If a club signs poor players that club will achieve nothing....

No we’ve signed decent quality players who are underperforming for whatever reason
Quote from: roversdude on January 05, 2022, 07:01:17 amNo we’ve signed decent quality players who are underperforming for whatever reason Quality players cost good money...Tommy Rowe and Galbraith are in my opinion the only two quality players in the squad....Tommy Row admitted to taking a pay cut when he signed for the rovers and Galbraith is on loan....

Of course Rowe took a paycut.

Of course Rowe took a paycut.Yes we know Tommy Rowe took a payout, I did say that in my previous post.....My point was, the rovers managed to sign Rowe because he was prepared to take a pay cut in which to sign for the rovers.....Given Rowe was willing to take that pay cut, we wouldn't had signed him otherwise....That's my point regarding signing players....are we scrapping the bottom of the barrel when it comes to paying wages ?...
From what i remember RW said Louis Reed was not a player he was looking to sign after he played in those friendlies.

I didn't say "we have the 24th highest budget in League One ", you did......Just look at the calibre of player Doncaster Rovers Football Club have brought in.....No manager wants to sign players who don't have a club, if they don't need to.....If any football clubat a professional level should not have to sign players without a club...If these players are without a club then they aren't of a good standard are they?.....No other club wanted these players, but the rovers signed them , maybe a desperate measure...I believe Louis Reed was without a club when he was with us pre-season aswell, sure Wellens wanted him but something happened & he ended up at Swindon, knew then we were bargain basement shopping.
