I have concerns too Filo. And my first reaction this morning was that I was never going to support them again.Then I thought about what would happen if it worked. I have concerns, but it's one of those plans that's either a train wreck or genius.Rovers have always done things differently so I'm hoping Ryan knows what he's doing.But he's right about one thing - did any single one of us think 10 years ago, five years ago or even five months ago we'd see players like Diarra playing for us?By the way, Ryan calls Diara 'Marmaduke'.
If it works, it`s a master stroke, a £100 per week gamble that pays the jackpot of the premier league millions if it comes off

I thought ryan said IF diarra comes in next week , maybe not a defo ????
Would clubs \"show-case\" their players if we dropped into League One? I'm not sure they would, so I'd be interested to see how this idea worked if we were to go down this year.But, going back to my original query - let's use Tommy Spurr as an example. Assuming when he's fit again he'd like to play, Illunga would be keeping him out of the team. So he'd eventually want to leave. Then assume Illunga gets his big move at some point. Who's left? Another McKay fella to come straight in? Does he have a constant stream of decent left-backs? Apply the same logic to every position taken by a McKay player and I begin to question the sustainability of the club.With regards to the Sharp point, no we cannot afford another. But neither could Scunny when they sold him. So they bought Martin Paterson. And then they bought Gary Hooper. And they kept turning a profit on these players. For a club with 5k crowds to have had two stints in the Championship and now comfortably sustain a League One club shows to me that [/i]the model works.rtid88 - this is in no way, shape or form a Sean related argument. I'm not sure why you would seek to make it one.
