When your house is close to being repossessed, do you sell the Rolls Royce and buy a Mini?

Why the doom and gloom regarding our finances? What evidence do you have as your basis?
If Rovers can survive off pass sales, still recruit for next year and possibly have a more expensive coaching set up in Smith and Maguire then I'm sure we're okay, things might be tight as with all clubs but okay.
Otherwise how do you explain us still actively recruiting for a coach and even possibly pay compensation for the coach we wanted.
I just find talk like that unnecessary, unsettling and with no grounding.

No doom and gloom, I'm merely speculating. I'm sure finances will be very tight. Can you say for certain how many passes we'll sell this time? Can you say whether or not we'll be allowed back to watch games?
Many, many bridges to cross before normality returns, or what will pass for normality. As I stated, I believe the possibility of him being lured away is higher than the chance that finances will dictate his sale/departure.
Should we manage to win the grand final then I'm sure both of my scenarios become less likely.

You've still not enlightened as to why and where he'll be lured too. I believe in the possibility I'm going to win the lottery, doesn't mean it's going to happen.

Let me make this simple. All my previous posts were OPINIONS. I believe this forum is here for us to voice them. Why are you always looking for an argument instead of a discussion? At least, that's the way your posts come across.
I base my opinion on the recent upturn in his, and our form, which has thrust him in to the spotlight. Again.
He is undoubtedly a talented individual and there has been much speculation on his best position. More importantly where he believes his best position to be. I believe if his form continues in the next (hopefully 2) games, the sharks will begin to circle. Whether we have enough ammo to fight them off remains to be seen. I sincerely hope we can, and I hope we can make him see that, in my opinion, he is best suited at full back.

Definatley wouldn't be sold to Leeds
Sorry not happening , he l thrive at fullback in a performing team and stay.
Its funny that many on here saw Connor as a full back but the coaches kept trying him as a six yet it was quite evident he was never a six. Still like him as a right centre but now Ratu is leaving i would leave him at full back. If he had pace he would be a world class full back
