Typical McManus with his "begging bowl".

I think that Redhall should work more closely with the grass roots clubs rather then try and promote the game in places where it will never take off.

All 3 times? Is there any official statement confirming this?

Surely hudge has already started to cut his cloth in line with income at rovers? Last year you lost a highly paid coach and replaced him with an unheard of assistant, you also lost newton and vella (and maybe more but can't remember who left), both of whom will have been on a stack, and replaced them with reserve grade overseas players. Plus you lose the international wages of briscoe and fox and replace them with hodgson. I wouldn't be surprised if rovers overall spend on coaches and palying staff is down £250k+ this year. It's no great surprise you are performing as you are

Cheers for that! ...are you the old bid that types the payslips?
