How much of a wage drop do you realistically think he took to come here? There are links on this forum to the 26k figure, if I wasn't on my mobile I would find them for you.

rovers11 Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Temporary setback Nothing in there about being sorry. Interestingly, nothing in their about remaining fully committed either - that's usually their stock response. I doubt the owners have even read that statement, it was probably one of their advisors who approved it. I got the impression whoever wrote it was sending out a clear message to Venkys - "You must keep TM". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baz Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 The owners statement is shameful 'The Owners and everyone at the club recognise and appreciate the solid backing of the supporters and thank them for this.' That can be read as the supporters are backing the owners, and the team. As for the temporary set-back, they really think the fans are thick.

So you refuse to believe Graham is on £26k a week in the Championship but you're happy to believe a League 1 player is on £20k a week? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are links on this forum to the 26k figure, if I wasn't on my mobile I would find them for you. He'd still refuse to believe it. Like when a forum full of people are calling for Coyles head and he's arguing with them, then we get relegated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irishrover213 Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 On reflection the statement is issued because they know Mowbray is having doubts they think by issuing this statement and give Mowbray "assurances" similar to what lambert got in November that he will hang around. Once the transfer window starts none of raos will be contactable. Same crap different season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the media have been reporting Sharp been on 20k since he joined them. Just now, booth said: He'd still refuse to believe it. Like when a forum full of people are calling for Coyles head and he's arguing with them, then we get relegated. I said Coyle shouldnt have been appointed but he was. He should be sacked after Birmingham home draw if not before. But I said we need a proper plan who to appoint. Not spend weeks with a caretaker in charge. If Mowbray was appointed 5 games before we are safe and we would have been playing Championship football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After Birmingham but if before ???? Explain. You defended Coyle for most of the season. The odd win was more than enough for you to continue to be hopeful.
