Deathly silence

Sounds like a pyramid scheme with all the right key flash words to make me feel worried if this deal does go ahead. No issues with DAV as they're the ones selling the dream but anyone buying in gives less of a toss about us and only really has pound signs in their eyes. Not awe-inspiring to me.

Ain't growing that catchment area either, the people of the peninsula generally don't care for anything not red or blue.

Not sure pyramid or Ponzi for that matter is accurate. But whatever jargon is used, organic growth seems apt, it is sobering to think we now need to double our gates to get the deficit back to where it was about five years ago.
This is a bubble of huge proportions.
Break even is about full house!

I fear, that, at this point, it's a sign that the take-over is no closer, I guess they had been waiting to announce a new sponsor in the hope that the deal would be completed, with new owners then able to bring in a new sponsor they might already have lined up, but need to put something in place now so the new shirts can go to manufacture, as such this is, as when it was announced back in March, an 'interim' measure

Given the mood music from the next labour govt all FDI maybe in jeopardy. Just mentioning new tax refunds will be enough to delay business
 
Not announced by us of course but on 24th July we play against the PFA starting at 11am it will be live on PFA X and you tube.
 
The club have issued a teaser of the new kit.

Along with a few new players wearing it I hope!

Considering the first friendly is tomorrow the lack of signings is very odd, must be going to be numerous trialists involved

I have been waiting for signings. Who is going to play in goal, playing the first pre season friendly and still no goalkeeper. You could not make it up.
 
Wonder what the situation is with Ryan Watson, has a new deal been agreed or moving on? Might have been something to announce if he had signed.

The lack of a goalkeeper signing is baffling, as already said, Rovers are not learning from previous mistakes

It's frankly ridiculous again our recruitment or lack of it.

We've not even had the managers weekly update, hes probably too embarrassed by the lack of signings.

This is perhaps wishful thinking, but there might be a reason why it's seemed quiet this week, in particular on signings, especially given the apparently very firm rumours on Ince. Given it is the Open Day tomorrow, the club might be keeping back this weeks announcements and any 'reveals' for then, and, just possibly, that will include introducing the new owners (I can't imagine the club would be able to sign someone like Ince without the agreement of any incoming owners but also without being sure that the money will be there to do so) - as I said, maybe wishful thinking, but we'll see tomorrow.

We have never announced a new signing at the open day and I don't think we will tomorrow, we are not really advertising the open day much either
 
The Open Day was decent last year but I suspect numbers will be less tomorrow.
