So a few quid, or a lot? It all comes down to cost of rent/wages (of which I’d presume most being on a minimum to a living wage baring the manager) and the value of a city centre shop. I’m not privy to the figures but with season passes, shirt sales and merchandise sales, the club should be reaching well over a million pounds per annum gross. I’d love to know the net Profit on merchandise but non of us will ever know. So a few quid or a lot would depend on what you’d lose by not having a prime location. It would be interesting to know footfall figures our shop currently gets, something we all could caragorically say would never happen at a stadium shop.

You don’t know about rent/wages. I don’t know either. You could find out by looking at the clubs accounts on line. All organisations have to file their accounts. Not sure which will be the club’s last accounts available.

The only question for Rovers fans is " Who will we play in the million pound game ".

The club said 6weeks for a visa from when he signed.

We need him here sharpish to provide competition for places in the centres. Granted Heff has been dealing with injuries and not a great preseason but he just doesn't look the part so far in SL. I'm a huge fan of his and expected him take the league by surprise. Most surprising to me is he defence this year, I thought this was a real strength for him last year. Fingers crossed he gets some better service and gets back to top form.

Got to be honest.

Really don't like our magic/charity shirt this year.
Disappointing considering our previous good efforts in this regard.

Just seen it. Awful. Who thought it was a good idea to produce a shirt with lyrics from a rubbish 30 year old song all over it?
