Mets sat down with Tom and Martyn to chat all things Gas. Both Martyn and Tom have been brought to the club by Wael and its fair to say they have both made a huge impact. Tom talks about how he has increased revenue coming into the club with the retro inspired kits the last two seasons along with revamping the bar areas to get Gasheads spending their money with the club. Martyn talks about how coronavirus has affected the clubs financial position and what the impact of Wael capitalising debt means to the club. He also talks strategy with a focus on developing younger players as assets and gives an update on the plans for the training ground. Tom also talks about his Martyn Starnes branded socks, which are for sale in the club shop and the pairs very cordial working relationship. listen.gascastpodcast.co.uk/276671/4752980-a-chat-with-tom-gorringe-and-martyn-starnes

Starnes opens by mentioning that he has 10 direct reports. That's a schoolboy error

Interesting that Tom Gorringe-rhymes-with-orange says we have partnerships 'incoming over the next few' weeks and months which should elevate the club in terms of the brands with which we associate. Sounds very good
Also good to hear that they seem a very coherent team

socks, which are for sale in the club shop and the pairs very cordial working relationship so the right foot does know what the left foot is doing

nice tone to the interview - Mets asking the tricky questions (like the Ken Masters one), even when he knows that they can't answer. They know he knows, and say so, and no egoes or feathers are ruffled either way

Mets trying to get a hustings going for Fans Director candidates. Seems an excellent idea to me

'Rovers fans have had a pretty rough ride over the course of history' regarding infrastructure. That's top-notch diplomacy from TG

c. 45 mins - Fruity things are under NDA, which at least confirms that something is going on, as Frosty has been saying for yonks

Mets trying to get a hustings going for Fans Director candidates. Seems an excellent idea to me hoping to listen to this this afternoon. great work from the GasCast boys. I know we talk a lot about the SC on here and what they are/need to evolve into, but these guys are showing the way and it's right in front of them. The SC should be reaching out to these people and not hoping they come knocking on their door

there's a lot of small stuff got right here I think - not just what they are saying, but the way that they are saying things and what is being done to back it up. Really all very positive IMO

Really all very positive IMO well worth a listen. Interesting to note MS comments about Trust beeing an important factor in anyone who joins the board. was very telling I though given Martyn was reluctant to talk about the Ken situation

I actually have confidence in a Rovers Board.
I'll just faint and be back shortly....

What's the point of signing an NDA regarding the Fruit Market, Sam Frost in the Post updates everyone what's happening in his Q and A every week and seems to be on the button with what he writes.
