surely the club needs to make a statement on this matter but I was wondering if Watson/Bramall or both would use the takeover money to run the DONS themselves

Have either of them been to a Dons match since they took over?

The reason Bramall and Watson wanted to be involved with the Dons was because it made good business sense to create Club Doncaster - not because they had a love of rugby. I very much doubt they'd be interested in the Dons as a separate entity.

It would take a massive turn-around in opinion for John Ryan to embrace the Dons. He questioned the decision to form Club Doncaster very vociferously asking the question, "Who really wants to watch rugby in Doncaster?"

He obviously saw the Dons as a drain on the Rovers resources - not a way of increasing revenue to Club Doncaster.

The key is whether there are clauses in the buy out deal that require Mr Ryan to continue with Club Doncaster for X number of years, or whether he has the right to disband it immediately.

I hope the present owners have enough respect for the Dons and the supporters not to sell us down the river. I hope Mr Ryan is big enough to accept that Club Doncaster is the right way forward and for him to want to embrace it willingly - possibly accepting that his previous comments were made in haste on the back of his fall out with the other Rovers' shareholders.

Interesting and worrying times ahead ...

I'm not sure, but I believe Terry Brammalls had representation at a fair few games this season.

Its an absolute joke. If he loved the Rovers that much there would be no issue.

Also in my opinion the term "image rights" is used as just another tax fiddle.I wonder if it will state into which country (or channel island even) the bank account is where the image rights will be paid.

if thats the case he needs to get his packed now and leave

I get the impression it is Psyco digging their heels rather than him in particular. They own the image rights to One Direction and they want to squeeze every penny from it they can before one of them ends up face down a mound of coke

Syco ....Simon Cowell.

Psycho maybe, but not Psyco.

Ask him to buy 10% of the rugby club as a 'token' gesture. That way, we keep hold of Brammall, Watson and Baldwin
