Heard that and have to say I am worried now.
Was DC suggesting indirectly that his appetite to push on next season isn't shared by Wael and Hamer... is there no real challenging budget going to be available? Usually I'm really upbeat after listening to him but tonight I sensed he isn't feeling supported in pushing on next season.
I think he ended the interview when encouraged for a better end to next season with a flat " We shall see"
i will listen to it again but didnt sound great for next season .... damn I hope I'm wrong!

Yes, I think there was a message to the owners here about the need to plan for next year...Not panicking but I think he is saying he wants support in achieving his ambitions. He knows he needs to add 4 or 5 players to the squad, and I'm sure he would like to see work start on the training ground and like all of us the uncertainty over UWE must play on his mind. He needs Wael and the family to provide reassurance and probably two or three hundred thousand added to his playing budget.

It's a massively important summer now .... we need to possibly cut loose about eight and replace with at least six far better quality players all over the pitch if we are genuine about progress and the owners want genuinely to hang on to DC.

Big test for DC as well
Get it wrong with a enhanced budget and we are in a fight to stay in League 1.........

A very senslble assessment of the situation that faces our club.

The worry for me is that he said a while back that his job here wouldn't be finished until he got us back to our rightful place in the top 10 of league 1. He has done that. If he doesn't get the backing he wants I think he might see it as a good time to move on if a bigger club comes calling.

If he doesn't get the backing he wants I think he might see it as a good time to move on if a bigger club comes calling. He said that in non-league under Higgs. From more recent interviews it sounds as if he is here to stay. He said the other week that if he was in it for personal gain he would have gone to Leeds in the summer.

I'd get rid of: Harrison Harrison Harrison Harrison Harrison Harrison Harrison Moore Everyone else has a role to play.

If he leaves in the summer it will tell us all we need to know about our owners real ability or desire to take our club forward. Time for action Wael and Hamer time for action not hollow rhetoric !

the "singing off the same hymn sheet" comment was the bit that got be a bit worried, seemed to me that DCs ambitions are not shared in some way or that there is a divide in the plans moving forward

I thought the same
The club needs to show significant ambition
He alluded to the Trollop years....floating about in league one
He's not interested in that and nor are we
Good on him

We didn't get 3 promotions on the trot so everything's gone to sh**. We've been in with a shout all this season 'til today so all of a sudden it's all sh**. Everything is sh**. Love you Rovers, very proud of DC and the team. Onwards and upwards. UTG!

That's exactly the mistake Trollope made and look how that ended / what that began.

I'd get rid of: Harrison Harrison Harrison Harrison Harrison Harrison Harrison Moore You can add Harrison to that list and sign another Harrison, the one at Barrow

Well said DC, we are now going to find out what our new owners are made of.
