Is that down to talks with JDT about his future? He was backed last summer with signings and I would expect similar spend again Just dont rate him from what I have seen. Not good on the ball and very rash. Quote

I would right now say that Rovers are worth plenty of value with their performances. You could see the connect between the fans and players/JDT post match with they came and applaud the fans 1 Quote
roversfan99 Posted March 4, 2023 Posted March 4, 2023 They might be playing well, getting good results and creating a connection. But the value for price v the standard of football baring in mind the cost of living crisis is not there. Quote
simongarnerisgod Posted March 4, 2023 Posted March 4, 2023 desperately need a couple of centre forwards next season,i applaud gallagher for his work rate but he`s just not aware as a goalscorer or in the box,a prime danny graham would have bagged a brace today, 2 Quote

There is a real buzz around the fanbase and the ground. Its great to see this IMO 2 Quote
RoversClitheroe Posted March 6, 2023 Posted March 6, 2023 Looks like Gus Williams is leaving Rovers, had enough of the circus behind the scenes is my assumption. 1 Quote

Well he is Welsh and had spent a number of years with their football association so I don't see why it wouldn't be a pull for him having a bigger role in that organisation and presumably an improved wage. I very much doubt he has decided to move on due to someone not getting O'Brien's registration through. Quote

JHRover Posted March 6, 2023 Posted March 6, 2023 There are usually only 2 reasons why someone like Williams would voluntarily leave a club doing well after only 6 months of a 'project' having not even yet had a summer window to prepare for. Either a massive or irresistible offer from elsewhere, or inherent problems/issues in his current role that make it desirable to leave. Given this development comes a matter of weeks after the biggest transfer window shambles in living memory I don't think it is negative to draw links and assumptions that all is not well. I hope it is me making 5 from 2 and 2 but my starting point where this club and these owners are concerned is to look at such developments with apprehension. It isn't normal to join a club under a new super structure in the summer and then by early March be off back to a previous organisation. 1 Quote

I may be mistaken. One of the higher prices in the division in one of the less affluent areas, leaving the stadium usually over half empty. Many clearly not seeing the value. 2 Quote

If you want to sell more season tickets then prices will have dropped to attract those fans who can't afford that price. Even tho ST revenue might not gone up much but you get extra 5k fans on. Quote

So if you was in charge, would you increase/maintain/decrease prices? Presumably maintain if you think they are value for money? Quote

Dropping the price would lead to more revenue as you will sell more. The price is too much. Fact. 2 Quote
Mattyblue Posted March 7, 2023 Posted March 7, 2023 ‘Value’ is obviously in the eye of the beholder. However, the fact we only have 9,000 ST holders, one of the lowest in the division says that the majority of the fanbase don’t see them as value. Quote
ben_the_beast Posted March 7, 2023 Posted March 7, 2023 If we're still in the championship then a couple of strikers are a must, Sorba Thomas has been a great addition, a centre mid and possibly a left back. Emphasis on quality over quantity. ------ If we got promoted I'd absolutely love us to make an attempt for Victor Gyokeres. Proving his value season after season for Coventry. I'd be quite open to a combination of top Championship level players (would O'brien still consider us) a couple of overseas recruits and any proven Premier league players who are out of favour. Be shrewd in our recruitment. It would be an almighty scrap to stay in the Prem and if we were relegated, we'd be well set to bounce back. Quote

Like another Danny Murphy and the list of expensive has beens we’ve had in the past. I’m not a lover of Brentford’s manager but they’ve done it without reverting to “out of favour Premier League players” who would bust our pay structure. Better to get the head of recruitment to identify players that can make the step up to the Premiership. 2 Quote

Presumably maintain if you think they are value for money? If you want more season ticket holders inside the stadium then prices need to drop to attract fans who can't afford 400 pounds but could afford 280 or 250 pounds. You might attract another 5k more season ticket holders with those prices. Revenue wouldn't necessarily increase depending on prices and who is season ticket holder Quote
