    If he’s wanting out how does building a new hotel at side of the ground stack up
    You may find common sense prevails on that one and the idea is quashed. You have to remember they would build it, but not run it, the intention is a ready made venue business… no different to building a house then selling. Personally I think it is a crazy idea. The cheap travel lodge, How many rooms does that get full?
    The empty space unsold over there and the empty units around NYS tell anyone, avoid. And a dying town centre. Not attractive is it.

    The demographic of Rotherham and the diverse things there is to spend money on, plus the cost of living for a large section of this town, means too many who could be extra fans see the std of football which is now stereotyped and stale, with little creativity like watching a battle of attrition in midfield. It simply isn’t attractive enough, except to the diehards, and that will deplete.

    You cannot get blood out of a stone.

    Fans ambition may not be matched by the club, because it is not at all cost. One post said we are not building something sustainable, of course we have. Financial.
    Climbing football status is another thing.


    Football it's lost it too me. Look at the wide players we had Lyons Towner on the right. Crawford Mcbride left. No cutting inside. Getting players like Jonny Quinn Watson those days are long gone getting quality such as that.

    Didn?t Docherty get us relegated from the second division to the third in his only year here nearly 60 years ago?

    He said he was going to get us out of was it division 2 then, he did. But he got Millmoor almost full to start with think last we got to the 5th round of the FA cup as well. Signed Watson Storrie was exciting times. Got us on the newspaper back pages featured on BBC sport.
