Bristol Rob Posted April 15, 2020 Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 9 minutes ago, bert tann said: No, I think it must be the people who will build the new ground and it values Rovers at £ 7.6 million which might be what they think the Mem is worth for development now. Hopefully nothing will go wrong in the meantime and their money won't disappear down the drain. Course, it could be the shares the club should have released that their share scheme paid for and have never received. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The link is above and it includes this:- Bristol Rovers posted a debt of £24m, two-thirds of which is owed to president Wael Al-Qadi and the club's parent company, Dwane Sports. Rovers' average attendance in League One is 7,520 but they announced losses of £3.4m for last year. One chairman asked: 'How do you get into that much debt in that division?' 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, we all remember when the Pikeys were trying to flog the Mem off they were insistent that it's only the gates that are a memorial to the fallen. Couldn't have picked a better photo to slot into a national paper myself 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
