But whose saying we are gonna have the 3rd lowest budget this season? We have in recent seasons. King has said judge him on this window. And that's what I'll do... in its entirety and not on rumours. Selling Vik and even Hamer could then allow us to sustainably increase our budget.

Yeah exactly. I will be renewing mine at the end of the month before my seat reservation ends. Think we are oncourse to hit 15k which is remarkable.

But it is about being sensible isn't it? That doesn't mean not spending. But spending it wisely. Otherwise we end up back at square 1 and like Derby and other clubs who recklessly spent unsustainably and have felt the consequences. I like that the ambition is to be in the playoffs 3/5 years as...

Relax. I'm sure Doug isn't just sat on his hands deliberately not putting them on sale. I want to buy mine and the moment they go on sale I will. So I'm not pissed off at all. There's no reason to be. We all know they are going to go on sale. Because they have to. I don't know why they aren't...

Very happy with this. Ever since the rumours of us after him in Jan I took an interest in him for Bristol and he played a lot in the 2nd half of the campaign. And has a brilliant delivery. He was also offered a contract at Bristol (Pearson confirmed this) but clearly when he turned them down...

Spot on. Constantly overlooked and underestimated. Just the way I like it. Robins can get to work build a stronger bigger squad and we will be back stronger. Bring it on.

Gutted. So so raw. But when the dust settles what we have achieved this season with injuries and all the well documented nonsense off the pitch, has been nothing short of miraculous. We have known for months as a club that Vik would be going and that was when we looked like we wouldn't make...

It is still very raw. It hurts and am absolutely gutted it didn't go our way. And while right now it is hard to see, there are so many positives to take from this season. A new owner, Robins & Vivieash signing new 4yr deals, no wasps, a new stadium deal as well as a summer to build a better...

So proud of this team, Robins, the players, everyone. After what was an immeasurably deflating start with all the off the field shenanigans added to what was perceived as a dissapointing window with just 1 perm signing, the turnaround has been truly magical. And hopefully we can do it. But...

After the circus of the pitch last summer/start of this season this is wonderful news. And having that consistency from CBS to Ryton just seems like a level of professionalism we have just lacked in recent times. Good stuff.

Yes I'd imagine we will. And we all know under SISU crumbs of that would be reinvested. If Vik goes and we use those funds to keep the rest of our players increase our strength in depth to really push on and cement a top 6 place then we would all be happy. For me seeing the stuff at Ryton is...

We will, but in the meantime we can either choose to be optimistic and hopeful that King is going to invest his money seeing as he wants we the fans to also. The proof will ultimately be in the pudding. But I think Robins has not sounded happier since King came in tbh. He seems positive about...

But Robins always underplayed things though, he is hardly going to say we have tens of millions to spend. Robins always tempers expectations. I'm encouraged reading those quotes as I am from what King said about this summer window to come. I'll judge him on that and not assume the same as what...

I'm tempted. Issue I've got is I'm in Block 28 which I can't buy in. And some friends sat in Block A which also now doesn't exist as that's been turned into corporate so we are without our seats but the availability so is sparse because every other ST holder had their seat held meanwhile ours...

And that price frozen for 5 seasons for all zones including premium zones I get.

This is true but that was the same owners who persisted in telling us we were building a new stadium. Just utter fabrication. I'm prepared to pay more for my ST because it's a new era, and we are already seeing proper extensive work going on at Ryton and players signing new deals. A lot of...

All in all a very good January, can't grumble at that. Best players still here. SISU & Wasps gone, extra depth I the squad. 4 points off the playoffs. Would have took that In a heartbeat back in August.

Bidwell despite him naturally not seeming as confident going forward, still finds himself into good positions several times in every game. His delivery then absolutely let's him down almost every time.

I think we will get 1 more in. And all in all. Not losing anyone of note and adding depth at wing back and another CB and forward will have been a good bit of business to see us through until the summer where the overhaul will take place.

I think it is very harsh to say he does 'ok'. I think he has shown a lot class on the ball and clearly has great technical ability, and off the ball his work rate and energy has also been impressive. We can all look at his stats, and yes he could and perhaps should have more goals than he has...
