Whatever happens next season the team will be worse than this. FFP will be 60% rather than 65% and even if a billionaire took us over you cant work outside the wage bill dictated by our income. Someone would have to take over all the income streams to get a decent increase and I cant see that...

The rules don't start till 2016 in the Premier and they are so loose with so many get outs it's almost pointless. FFP just makes the gap between the haves and have nots wider than ever.

At the moment that part of CCFC isn't in admin so he can't sell anyone.

That will be none but they've all been practising Monopoly.

I have to sell myself on street corners to stump up for ST each season. My arse will be ripped to shreds if I've got to find an additional £1000.

I think the difference between Robins and our current manager, apart from the biggest being one had Goldie in the team and one doesn't, is that one spoke something close to the truth after the game and one talks total shit. Today was awful with only about 3 players turning up, our passing was...

I think he needs to get down Spec Savers

I think Linnell is only asking The Trust questions that most people who of sound mind are wondering. It's great in theory but this isn't playing at director of the board. I wouldn't trust the guy with £10 of mine let alone a £1000. This idea of basing us on Pompey who are about to drop into...

Hull for me. Shit, it's like finding out that there is reincarnation and then coming back as a fly.

I don't think you grasped my original point. I was saying that Doncaster or for that matter any of the top 6 in league 1 don't have a string of hotels funding the club. The reason is the Ricoh already have exhibition, concerts, casino etc etc and the profits wouldn't pay for a decent players...

The day we start bigging it up because we are ahead of clubs where you can lose the ball over the stadium on a throw in, is a bad day indeed.

So are you saying to have a successful league 1 club we must also have a string of hotels and leisure facilities? Well I'm looking to book myself into Doncasters luxury complex and I cant seem to find it. Any ideas?

Exactly, everyone wants financial stability and for us to live within our means but also an owner who splashes the cash and invests in the team and gets promoted. I think promotion will be a long, long process and possibly never, using the live within your means method, but will fans be happy...

Still the issue for me is that the Ricoh has made a £1m profit and not a £5m profit. What are CCFC current losses per season? Does this additional £1m profit bridge that gap? If it doesn't what is the answer? Its okay to have income and therefore be okay on FFP etc but some outside investor is...

But what revenue and profits? They only made £1m profit when the rent was being payed. I also don't understand the revenue aspect. If some level of turnover is allowed to be shown on CCFC books therefore in theory raising the amount allowed to be spent on wages in accordance with FFP. It is only...

I don't see how an £8 m loss is prudent, it sounds more like a gamble to me.

The easiest deal would be the club takes over he running of the stadium (I'm talking future owners rather than SISU ) it continues to pay the £14 m loan back to the council and an agreement is reach that the council/charity get a % of turnover. job done move on.

So how do you purpose we bridge that gap? Where does the problem lie? why would anyone invest? The Trust has mentioned Swansea as a great example of what can be achieved but I have mentioned a few times that Swansea made an £8m loss to gain promotion in to the Premier. They made a £14 m...

So are you suggesting that are mere £250k of extra revenue would make us financially stable?? The problem is there are so many fingers in the pie we are never going to get enough financially out of the stadium. To buy the stadium is never going to happen as pay back will be after we are all...

It was Councillor Kevin Maton not Councillor Mutton. I know it's a similar name and they both have a similar attitude and its not a good one as far as CCFC goes.
