Yep. All Harry’s fault. Bloody Leythers, always cocking it up for Rovers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know its a grant for ground and community use.If we had someone who could add up at the club and only paid 75% of total income on wages we would be fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would guess it depends on who you bring in as your next coach and his budget for the rest of the season. IF you are struggling with finances PERHAPS you might have to cut some players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fevrover Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 1 hour ago, LeytherRob said: I thought we'd reached peak silly season with Blake Austin going to Cas but I stand corrected. Very risky call with Fev 8 clear of 2nd place. I wouldn't be overly enthused with Ford if I was a Fev fan either. He did alright in 2018/2019, although 2019 was a very weak championship season with most of the other big teams waiting for TW to get out the way. Since then York have rarely lived up to expectations and the style of play has been very Conservative and ineffectual. Wakefield have come on leaps and bounds since he left and Fev have gone backwards. If he fails now then I'm not really sure where he goes from here as Campbell will have him straight out the door if they don't get promoted. Get it right - revolving door! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which players would want to sign for a championship club with 7 games to play and no confirmed SL place? And the clubs, who has that money as a bet?

They can only draw on those funds for specific infrastructure based projects. Wakey used theirs to part fund the Belle Vue redevelopment works. Cas have not yet used theirs but it is in the funding for the planned redevelopment of Wheldon Road. Fev I assume would be doing similar, though probably focused on their main stand/facilities and the floodlight infrastructure for example. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
