All we’ve been told pretty much is they are football fans . We need a bit more than that , what their vision for the club ,what’s goals are they setting ? It’s water poor isn’t it ? When we had big press releases with Wael, fans moaned that he just wanted the limelight. Can't win either way, as some fans will always think the opposite. I agree I would have liked a bit of an update though. Hopefully they are awaiting to announce stadium news😂. Would they have completed it, if the stadium project talks were not going okay? |

I want names, location, wealth, and answers to all of them otherwise I'll just have to carry on supporting the Rovers without knowing any of that, like I have done for years.

We had better have some money for more players as the injury list is mounting after one league game!!

So a week later and we still know little more about our new owners 🤔 When the Al-qadis took over we never received much extra information. A lot of people thought, that because their bank was worth £1.5 billion, they were going to sell up and blow the money on Rovers. |

Can’t remember the timeline but wasn’t Wael on having a gas within a week or so of taking over ? Regardless, this just proves that straight talking is better than supposition surely? |

It didn't stop the speculation though, even the Points West clip when they went to Jordan didn't prevent it. But I agree, something about their intentions would be interesting. |

I get we won't get the answer we ultimately all want (if we're being honest) but the complete lack of any info whatsoever is shocking really. Can't for the life of me understand why we haven't had a "meet your new owners" article on the official site - a bit about them, their previous achievements / career path to date etc. If they were minority investors (5% say) I could understand it but they now own 55% of the club! |

Not yet at least. 🤞 As much as many of us would love to spend big on signings and of course confirmation of the FM, I'm just as interested in Phase 2 of The Quarters and plans for any U23s. |

It is telling that Weal has invested so much and yet is willing to allow someone else to purchase a majority share rather than for Wael to sell his own shares.

Somebody asked Dan Hargraves (new Rovers post reporter) this morning on twitter if he can ask the new investors all the searching questions we want to know. It'll be on his twitter feed . Not sure how to post it in here.

Not sure how to post it in here. He wants sacking if he didn't think you ask those questions😂. He's probably already been told what he can say though and if he wants information in the future, I doubt he's going to push it. |

Everything the club does or plans seems to be shrouded in secrecy nowadays. Obviously we have no inherent right to know these things, but it's frustrating at times.
Maybe I'm imagining it and it's always been this way.
We definitely hear a lot less from Wael in the past couple of years though.

I don’t so much care about what they do for a living, their background, how much money they have etc. We as fans have no right to know that sort of thing if it’s not in the public domain.
What I do care about knowing is their intentions for the football club, how they first heard of us, why they decided to buy. A little bit about them as people.
Hopefully we get an interview soon which answers these questions.

The new owner has already said he will meet us on Saturday, I expect him to be paraded on the pitch and asked some questions by our own man on the mic.
