We would never be in this mess if we concentrated more on understanding core problems that face the club, things like, how many people visit each pasty hut and what is the yield per visit? Dat would be an ecumenucalculating matter You nicking my lines???

If there is such a thing as car crash radio this was it.
I'm more worried than ever about Rovers' long term future. The entire strategy consists of 'Build a ground & they will come'.

Very true. Especially remember GD telling those presenting a petition about the way in which Dennis Rofe was treated that if they didn't like it they could bugger off. I can remember meeting at the back of the Grandstand after the match to protest and hand in the petition. It was pouring with rain, and only about half a dozen people showed up (sounds familiar). The petition was handed in at the door, but it wasn't GD who took it. I had already written a personal letter to GD, making my feelings very clear re. the treatment Rofe received. The letter was sent via one of the empties which Dunford's milkman collected the following day. I did receive a very polite response from GD, via Royal Mail. Just registered, though long time browser of this forum, to say I was the person who handed it in. We had collected over 3,500 names on the day, more than half the crowd. Originally Bob Twyford was sent down to collect the petition, to which we refused. Eventually I alone was allowed to hand it in to GD, on the stairway to the directors lounge. His exact words to this fairly naive (at the time) 22 year old was, 'If you don't like it you know what you can do'. It's fair to say that was the moment I took a dislike to him. As Chewbacca rightly says, this is not the time to go popping champagne corks. I'll save that moment for when, and if, the shares are sold.
