I’ve just checked my on line bank statement and I paid Doncaster Rovers a three figure sum of money on the 22nd of February 2022, not exactly June

With respect, after only being on forum a fortnight maybe you aren't the club expert just yetMaybe I'm just wary of someone who just joined and questioned why SM would know about investment but then know enough to refer to Martin by name a touch further down the thread

Eco power group has had 2 bids rejected to join the board and invest but not to fully buy the club
Eco-Power do not have the money that can transform us. You only have to look at their accounts to see that. Wealthy, but probably much less than Terry alone. Given the club is sustainable to a large extent, them as new owners might bring in new energy or new ideas, but the only way they would bring in significant new funds to transform our situation is going to be through debt, which would I suspect be secured against the club, not them. Good that local businesspeople want to come on board but people need to think through the implications of arguably enthusiastic and well-meaning but thinly resourced new owners, might do to a club that is sustainable if boring.

A club that is sustainable and boring will not stay sustainable for long though.

Go on then EfD what is your proposal please. Serious question what would you like to happen with the club realistically
Quote from: roversdude on March 04, 2023, 09:50:59 amGo on then EfD what is your proposal please. Serious question what would you like to happen with the club realisticallyOne of two options. TB to throw in £2m to sign some decent players or sell to someone who wants to take the club forward and not stand still and stagnate.

You suggest the OR is an alternative. Sorry but there is no or.And please don't give us the "Well if they don't put it up for sale how will we know?"In all the time since TB, and Dick, have said, if someone came along to take the club forward, they would sell, nobody has other than JRs two failed attempts. They've said it numerous times at open events where press were present and reported it, so it's information that's in the public domain. JRs attempts courted plenty of attention in the press. Did anyone try to compete with JRs bids??I'm sorry if that's a grim reality for you. The alternative is patience, trust and our own investment in Copps, DS, GB and Co to turn things around. Yes, we all have a choice so it's up to you.

No investment=no decent signings=more boring football= attendances will drop, season ticket sales will drop = no longer sustainable.But hey if your happy with that bully for you.

If Club Doncaster carries on being the success it is - and I'm sure they're not intending to rest on their laurels, it could very well cover the slack of lower gates.
