For people not to back the club now they should be ashamed. AP has put the money in and saved us from those idiots who owned the club, and has spoken more passionately about the club in his short time, than they did in 12 years

Did you miss the interview on radio Humberside when he said it was a "Soft Loan". That does not equate to a gift it equates to loan with a below market interest level.

Why should people be ashamed, it's their money, will AP be handing back the cash he makes when (if) we go into profit?

To be fair if I was a Rovers fan I would be hoping it was a Soft Loan and not a Gift, we all know what Mr Allams definition of a Gift is!!!!!!!!!!!!!

| Quote: FC Wembley 08 "Not to mention the new SMC user agreement which will be more cost effective and will bring that required average down!!'" That is under the ideal situation that Allam will roll over and play dead.
Good luck with that BTW.

As Allam isn't the landlord, it wont be his decision, it will be the City Council who negotiate their position, the SMC is just a management agency.

Nail on the head.
I got another season pass for this season as I'd said if Agar went & we got a new coach I would renew, the fact we have AP as our owner is even better.
However I do understand that there are still many who want to see the proof of the pudding so to speak before handing over hard earned cash again rather than just hearing how good the recipe is again. Unfortunately for AP there is nothing more he can do as its a scar left by the years of shafting the fans by the previous regime that has made many sceptical and quite rightly.
If the team start well and look strong, competitive and play an exciting & entertaining brand of rugby then I am pretty sure most will come back at some point during the season, so would think the walk up figure would increase by a good margin. Maybe a half season ticket would be a good option for AP to look at if Gentle and the players are doing well.

| Quote: Mrs Barista "Cooke is an interesting figure, arguably the most important player in the city over the last decade; a pivotal player in winning the cup and ensuring Rovers survival, then add in the hugely controversial transfer, criminal conviction, being effectively sacked by Rovers. He's full of himself, still. We've never really got to the bottom of the transfer. I'm interested to hear his side, particularly now Rule and Kath are so discredited. Doesn't mean I like him or believe him, but I do find him interesting.'"
Ditto....I am with you on this one.

Because what more do people want. If people can't afford it then fair enough. But so called fans saying I'll wait and see what happens is a joke. If we all took that attitude there would be no club. Thank god for real fans

the people I am talking about have been going for over 40 years in some cases, they have just had enough and want to see some evidence of change before shelling out.

I thought you were above that.

That's why our club won't compete with the Wigans and Warringtons of this world. Because we won't be challenging for the title this year. So if these people are waiting for us to be winning every game, they could be waiting a while. AP is speculating, so the fans should be as well. You follow a club through thick and thin. I'm amazed at the response of people like you

and I am amazed by responses by people "like you", the kind of people that say people aren't "true fans" unless they go to every game, home and away, buy loads from the shop, believe everything they are told by players (current and former) and generally walk through life with tinted spectacles on.
