John Eustace - our head coach

[roversfan99]

Basically every Championship owner bar the parachute clubs has to put in money each year to offset the losses Championship club makes. For example Prestons owner does the same. They put the minimum in they have to to keep the club. 

Seems to be a mentality of that they are doing their bit by doing that, and the people below them are the ones to target.

Don't give up the day job.

What sort of investment in January WOULD you consider reasonable?

(Not that it will happen I don't suppose)

I think it would be reasonable for a club in our position and run of form, having taken in what we have in transfer fees in the last few seasons to spend 10m this window.

 

I have always felt that if you want to operate a trading model then 25-35% of what you take in must be reinvested to keep it going.

 

What I think will happen is less than a million spent on 2 loan fees and they will let dolan go cheap if they can find a buyer,. We are running by cunts

Preston spent a few million on players this summer and last, and that's without selling anyone to bring in finances. Its a sad day when clubs like Preston are investing more in their playing squad than Rovers (even more so after bringing in £40m+ in sales).

Hadn't we just beaten Watford away?

From memory, I think we had beaten them 5-0 at home with that wonderful Tony Field solo goal. I know the run of form contained a Bournemouth away win, followed by a 1-0 away win at Port Vale.

Following the Vale win, there was a piece in one of the national papers, where Gordon Lee (still Vale at the time) was lavish in his praise for Tony Field.

I was still at school for the 3-1 Watford away win, which you might be remembering...

Within a few short months Field had been sold and Gordon Lee was Rovers manager.
