  1. 15m excluding add ons. He’s gone.
  2. Rovers will be streaming the game themselves. Don’t buy it from Leeds, Rovers don’t get any money if you do that.
  3. For all my sins. Hate it. Can’t stop playing it.
  4. You’ll be able to guess from Wednesdays team
  5. They’re the best kits we’ve had in ages. I don’t like the rose detail, looks a little forced, but I shouldn’t complain.
  6. Add ons to the value of 5m, which you’d assume now they’re promoted are paid up. Doing it the add ones excluded way still works though… They paid 5m We paid 1.75m.
  7. No, but Brentford paid 10m quid for Toney and we paid 3m quid for Arma.
  8. You’d rather he left for nothing in 12 months than for 15m now? Teams know that we need to sell him, you don’t get top whack when everyone knows you’re in financial difficulty and your player has 12 months left on his deal.
  9. In FFP year 3 we are yes. Next set of accounts will be much lower.
  10. We had one of the biggest squads in the league last season, our wages where 180% of revenue.
  11. Because Rovers’ income is so low, our approach is to have a minimum spend for 2 years then a bigger spend in year 3, which means across the 3 years we pass FFP. There’s plenty of different approaches all over the league, PNE for example keep their costs level(ish) across all 3 years. Clubs with a higher income can afford to do 2 years big spending with 1 year lower - eg Derby. The ideal way around it is the Brentford model - where you have high value assets to sell every year and you replace them with well scouted, cheaper replacements. We can’t do that because we haven’t sold anyone. The plan was always to sell Dack, but he did his ACL. We now need to sell Arma and quite frankly we’ve struck lucky that he broke through whilst Dack was injured, otherwise we would have no significant assets. To be absolutely clear, last year was our chance - which is why many of us where pushing for Mowbray to be sacked. We now may as well keep him for 18 months.
  12. I’m glad someone else understands the mess that is the FFP cycle. Nothing to see here for the next 2 years, folks.
  13. At this point I reckon if I worked at Tony’s local greasy spoon I could get a job at Rovers.

    Ignore

    There’s no way you can find out.
  15. I don’t get it at this point. Macron have released kits all around the world, ours isn’t out. Umbro did the same. What is it about Rovers that means that no matter the provider, we don’t have a kit to unveil until weeks after every else? Ultimately, I’m not too fussed. But it’s so intriguing.
  16. Because Ben’s been told so. I can’t see it coming to anything myself.
  17. It’s not lazy journalism - Bielsa wants him.
  18. That confirms it - I’m signing up to the golf club, I can’t put up with another year of negativity.
  19. This whole Mols / Buckley / Sign Sparks Kids thing is fast becoming tedious and boring.
  20. It doesn’t effect us, but it’s good comparison that Blackpool have sold 7,000 in the time we’ve sold about 250.
