    To all the people who say evans waste money on transfers

    I have read a lot on here about evans wasting money on free transfers paying players contracts out etc etc.

    Can I ask 1 question.

    How much has evans made the club with 2 promotions in 2 years???

    If we was still in the basement league would we be selling new york out??

    Would we have got 400k for revell if we was in the divisions below us??

    All the extra merchandise.

    Great post, WLB. But it'll go straight over the heads of the spoilt brats on here who'll blame anyone and everyone because we lost.

    How much did TS have to subsidise the club when we were in League 2?

    How much did he have to subsidise the club when we were in League 1?

    Both these figures are available in the clubs accounts. The latter was, without checking, 2 to 3 times more than the former. So it certainly isn't following that we are "making money" through promotions.

    Ok colin we look at it as a business like ts does.

    These are fictional figures but used just as a example.

    Is Rotherham worth more in the secound division with gates off 4k losing 50k a year.

    Or is Rotherham worth more in the championship losing 200k aa year with gates off 9k.

    There's a greater possibility of a televised game in the Championship so more revenue.

    SE gets hired or fired on his decisions and so far he's got enough right to win 2 promotions which is a fantastic achievement. The game has moved on and only changing one or two players from a mid table squad each season is a recipe for relegation. In my opinion he's just taken it one or two players too far and you can't see some of his journey men signings ever making the 1st team. Brandy who's just been released for example, could his wages have been used to keep Agard? Just a question we'll never know and have Agard's goals dried up for a Lge 1 Bristol City side creating lots of chances so was selling him a brilliant decision by SE. It's fine margins.

    UTM!
