He hasn't though has he. If that money was there he would be through the door. Gestede has said that any sales don't add to the initial budget, so where is that money for a marquee coming from? From previous sales over the past 2 seasons the expenditure is pitiful. It is not sustainable to sell your best players constantly and not reinvest in similar.

Apart from the happy clappers on LET i think pretty much every other fan would absolutely detest the way our club is run.

At the kit launch yesterday Ismael spoke a lot about Montgomery. Heaped praise on him for his on and off the pitch attitude. Can see him being used a lot this season. Said Scott Wharton is unfit and needs to improve on this to play the way Ismael wants to play. So can see us really pushing for CB, ala Mcloughlin, as he clearly doesnt see Wharton as the answer to replace Batth. Said he has no interest in loan players when asked about using our relationships with Liverpool and Brighton. So can see the academy getting a lot of minutes this season. Also fits with Gestedes words. Think thats a mistake personally. Logic would dictate that lads at Liverpool academy are better than ours. I know most of this is common knowledge but interesting to hear direct from the horses mouth.

Not wanting to be one of those who knows a mate of a mate etc, but i will be Dolan is currently on £2k a week. His agent let's say isnt exactly quiet on the issue in private groups Got to remember he signed a new deal only 6 or so months after joining for 300 a week. He hasn't signed anything since. Personally would be offering 10/12k a week. His performances towards end of the season, whether putting himself out there for a move or not, he showed he can reach very good championship standards. You also know you are going to get 100% pretty much every single game.

Very rarely post on this forum. But thought I would share this from someone I know who has club connections. "There’s a woman I deal with down there and she was saying that he wasn’t first or second choice… and it’s got all the players backs up that they are 5th in the league and yet no one is prepared to come to a club that’s pushing for the play offs. What does it say about the club!!" Whether it's true or not I don't know. But if it is, to me it says the players coming out of contract in summer or next season have zero intention of staying on at Rovers.
