Money may be your god pal but a lot of players and staff at clubs dont have the same values as you. Yes it is good when you can make a large amount of money for playing a game you love,but pride and passion for a team go a long way as well ,if players were purely money motivated they would not be at Donny i can assure you of that.

Quote: sanjunien "congratulations
Why do you have to insult people by saying that their post is idiotic. You asked a question regarding the Keepmoat Stadium and the guy (who is a very important part of the club) took his time to try and explain, so why the insulting response?

On the matter of the staying at the Keepmoat, IMO The Dons should remain at the Keepmoat and I'm pretty confident that the blokes who run the Dons would want that as well. It's looking more and more likely that there will be new owners of the Stadium and of course things may change for the Dons Management as to the rental agreement etc, but I really hope we have a future there.

Chunkster was offering an informed insight into the club and we should respect his view.

Insulting him is out of order. Thanks again Chunkster for sharing the info with us.

Thanks for the support guys, i have large shoulders and can take the flack from the odd know all , i refuse to lower the tone by engaging in a slanging match, if any one wants to discuss my posts i will be more than happy to speak to them in person , especially you Sanjunien. People come on here saying they dont get any information from the club,all i try to do is give a fair and honest opinion on what is happening regarding the lads. It is not my intention to rattle anyones cage ,but obviously on this occation i have upset a former rugby league god who has taken exception to my views which is fine ,and i dont have a problem with that. Ask any of the players here why they signed for the club and i bet not one of them will say they signed for the money. icon_kiss.gif icon_kiss.gif ps The rent at the Keepmoat is very reasonable as we have a deal with the council

I can't see what the fuss is.
Chunkster and sanjujien are both right in their own way.
sanjunien is right that in most cases players will just go to where the better deal is.
But Chunkster is also right, that if a player is faced with two very similar deals, he will be swayed by the facilities and the set-up.
Right that's that sorted!
Next?

Peter, by all means make your point but perhaps that bit went a little too far don't you think?

Neil, I think it's fair to say, as you will see from the various responses on this an other threads, that your input is valued. Please do continue with any pertinent updates. Cheers.

that's quite simple mate - I have no idea who chunkster actually is in real life - it could be Carl for all I know ? the fact is I found his/her posts idiotic that's why I used the word 'idiot' - it's not a difficult concept to comprehend.
I have absolutely no idea about the KM stadium agreement with the council though certain posters have previously inferred it's been a bit of a millstone for the club.So what's the craic with the stadium ?
I still belive it's ridiculous to state that a player will chose a nice new stadium with big toilets and luxurious changing rooms in a lower league instead of a higher standard of competition unless,as I said there are other circumstances involved ie travel,work or family commitments or that player cannot be guaranteed regular first team appearances (would he have been a automatic choice for Fev ?) or indeed that the player concerned maybe lacks ambition and is quite happy to chug along at a lower level...

no insult intended and apologies for any offence taken - I just found the comments quite ridiculous,end of.

by the way - if anyone is interested I have already asked to sponsor two Donny players next year as well as continuing the lottery etc etc I know it's not much but there's no way can I get to the games.

Ofcourse i will Gaz ,im not one for throwing the teddy out because someone doesnt agree with me, everybody is entitled to their opinion. I dont agree with a lot of things posted by people on here slagging the club, we are all on the forums because we love the game, i along with most of the coaching and backroom staff work for nothing ,our reward is being involved with a club we all love and want to see succeed. Carl is doing his job very well and keeping us out of debt which is a lot more than can be said for other clubs. So for someone to say that everyone in the game is in it for the money p#sses me off. Give me 13 lads who want to play for the club or 13 that want to play for the money and i would take the former every time .COYD icon_thumb.gif

Any-old-how..........
The Dons should be focusing on ways to sell season tickets.
Some blurb about signing an EXCITING replacement for Spav (true or false ) would help!
Keep the pot boiling please.... use the press ... etc
