With the loss of financial support generously provided by Dick Watson, Andrew Watson and Terry Bramall are left as sole benefactors .
The Bramall Charity Foundation could perhaps justify supporting Club Doncaster ( and therefore indirectly DRFC) in the future thanks to Club Doncaster's Community work.! Nothing is a given and the strategy of developing support and finance from the community ,beyond the commitment of the current owners to the ongoing 5 year plan ,needs to enter our psyche!

Why be concerned, the club is well run and the player budget isn’t an issue as we are in the third tier of League football and it’s appropriate. Provisions are always in place when directors are indisposed or the shares come up . We have been very fortunate to have their caliber of business expertise. Tho we all want a higher grade of football to earn more money , the club has to build a self reliant pool of players first .five years plan is a guide not a end in its self. A foundation of sound finance are what builds a legacy not promises or wishful thinking and the club is still building after the wonderful JR years .

I am not concerned just making the point ( although the couple of million a year the Board has been putting in and the right off of debt is a consideration ).
