A penalty off a play off final last year after best last third of a season most can remember, and sitting third currently. If only there were some hopes that things have changed
How big is the membership of clubs in league 2 that have been given a 15,000 seat stadium with a low annual rental?  There's not many in the league above or even Championship level,  mind you it was entertaining listening to how badly run a team currently 3 points off the play offs in the Championship are

The stadium wasn't 'given' to anyone, DRFC was offered a lease, the mangement and the benefactors worked on their business plan to bring the stadium into profitability with hard work over quite a few years.

Come on Gaz, it’s never a red card. It will probably be rescinded.

On another note. No idea what we’ve done with the PA system. No longer even audible in west stand. Whatever they have done has made it 100x worse

Absolutely zero chance it gets overturned.

Wonder where we'd be now without the council handing over the stadium with a low rent? The narrative of cut back to almost zero financial input from the owner (sustainablity) has led to a situation where there are now signs of Anorexia Nervosa with the patient.
T.Bramall said at the M.T.O "can we do it with less money,  we think we can" his actual words.
Not a great legacy so far, decline over the last few years and in the bottom division two successive seasons for the first time since Richarson.

Sorry to be pedantic, mate, but this is now our 3rd successive season in the bottom division.

We desperately need to get out this season.

Desperately bad decision.

Yeah I agree, should never have been a red card. Always knew it would be overturned

Agreed Scawsby, I honestly believe if we can get out of this league we will flourish in league 1, it's just getting there!
