You will when you see his replacement!

Contradict me if I'm wrong but is Dolan on the same money he was when Preston dumped him and we took him on? In other words having played 200 games for us he's still being paid the same as when he was a teenager we took a gamble on. In Jacks day contracts were routinely revised (upward!) to ensure loyalty, reward players doing well and to avoid them ever being out of contract. If Venkys had been in charge Shearer would have left for nothing! He started on £950,000 a year but finished on much more. We lost him but at least Newcastle had to pay a then record transfer fee for him. This lot have no idea how to run a football club.

Well its obviously in the Plan. Section A para 1) "ensure all good players are locked in contract talks for years while their contract winds down so they go somewhere else."

That's the truth that so many Rovers fans cannot see.

What Gestede says is not to be taken literally. His job is to defend the owners and the Admin ( of which he's a part). This is where critical faculties come in. You have to get behind the words for the true meaning.

I wouldn't go that far and I don't believe anyone will offer him that deal. But he's reputedly on £8000 a week and he's clearly going to get more than that somewhere else. We should at least match it.

No point distinguishing between them on talent. Venkys won't. We'll lose 4 of them, Baath might stay. He'd be the cheapest of those 5.

We're going to make a "final offer" to ensure we get as much compensation for him as possible. We know it will be rejected. Ismael has come as close as possible to confirm Dolan is leaving. Step forward Markanday! And the dumbing down accelerates.

No -Brainer then!!

Which we should do anyway with them all.

Forcing people to get the digital version thus preventing season ticket holders from passing on their ticket to a friend when they are not attending?

He wants them to replace seasoned professionals like Travis and Brittain because he's under orders to get the wage bill down because Venkys have cut funding. Can't you see the bleeding obvious? Nothing to do with football.

No criticism of the Club then? Its their decision not to pay him what he can earn elsewhere. Edit---you have criticised the Club in your post above but contradict yourself in this post. We have no idea whether Dolan "wants to test the market" but without a good offer from Rovers what choice does he have?

or anything like as good.

The Plan is that they leave and are replaced by frees and Academy players ( ready or not). All about reducing the wage bill. No ambition, nothing to look forward to, Wrexham will hammer us.

Then that's a cut in real terms! Remember that one Chaddy?!!

The criticism of Dolan has always been "there's no end product". Well that is no longer true, in assists and goals he's had a terrific season and we will not replace him like for like. Just another disrespected by Venkys.

We know how this is going to end," another what might have been." If we were to build on this relative success next season we might get somewhere but we never do. The ingredients just aren't there. Pretty certain that next season's side will be worse than this one. So buying a ST on the strength of this season has no logic at all. However, this late bloom has made the Coalition's job harder.

Made the first goal and would have made the second if the penalty hadn't been missed. What an exquisite pass that was.

I'm reading the same sort of shit all over the LT comments section, Dom. Contributors mocking any protests by poiting out what a successful season we're having. Absolutely clueless.

He's shining now?

Can't be bothered with that is my guess.

and will get his reward....

Presumably they twist your arm!

Worth his weight in gold to us. Wish he were CEO!
