I reckon we could be losing more money this year than last (£2m+), especially if another 3 home games are effectively lost to lockdown.

Money will be very tight, and contracts difficult to finalise, but, tbf, (nearly) all clubs are in the same boat.

I'll take that the sooner he re signs the better

I had heard from a reliable source that he'd re-signed a while ago.
Didn't post anything for fear of looking foolish at the time but that tweet gives some credence to my information.

Really hope you're right. Just that in the past we've always got business done early and made announcements.

Apparently just sitting on the news, so hope my source is correct too.

Just read that, hopefully they have signed with us, think they will have or we would have heard a rumour about them signing for another club.

I'd also keep Wynne, Fash and McNamara.

Interesting as I thought Johnstone and Shaul were OOC, maybe they have signed with us or another club.

Are you sure you would keep Fash? Every time I see him play I think he is below SL par. At least Matongo makes a few yards, I don't think I've seen Fash bust a tackle. I'm not being funny but the FC fans I know agree with me

I'm with Dave on Fash. He makes decent yards, never shirks a tackle and I'd be hard pushed to remember when he last dropped the ball. Much as I want Matongo to shine, for a big lad he really doesn't seem to punch his weight. Hopefully when he's fully fit and BH has had time to work with him we may see a different player.

matongo making yards ? on a bike maybe lol he`s not fit to lace brad fash`s boots, a total waste of cap space plays very few games makes very few meters off very few carries when he is fit and available . what % of games has he played in and made a positive impact on since last signing a contract ?

Brilliant hahaha got to love Rovers fans, yes Matongo would be a great signing for Rovers, but Radford wants him at Cas
