“Copps stayed back and continued talking saying that SOD was about to move to Burnley and that it would be announced at 1-00pm. Thankfully SOD stayed loyal to our club but sadly the club and particularly Ryan didn’t”

I don’t believe this part. There is no way a player would openly discuss an official announcement on the day it’s being made beforehand with a man and his 7 year old at cantley park. You’ve made that bit up, haven’t you?

My thoughts exactly too, Colin and Sod himself said in an interview years after that the Burnley thing was just a media story.

As much as financial fair play allows, the board need to allow Grant a few signings that aren’t out of the Aldi bargain basket.

For League Two, financial fair play as a concept exists through the Salary Cost Management Protocol (SCMP). To simplify, this means that wages cannot exceed 50% of turnover.

I guess Club Doncaster maybe aids this

I don’t imagine they use any dodgy constructs to break protocols ..GB too wise and experienced for that .

I realise that I shouldn’t really reply to this post as I know what was said but just to enlighten you two further.
An hour later the young lad realised that he had lost his phone so we went back to Cantley Park to find a number of media vehicles with the satellite communications systems, who informed them ?. End of and a Happy New Year.

The media had been all over that story for a week and on this forum virtually the only thing being discussed during that time.  So by the time it was told to you every Rovers supporter in the country already knew about it.
