Are the electronic turnstilles to be fitted,and if so how is the club going to stop it being abused ie adults using kids passes.

Yes - all on order and some equipment arriving and we hope to have most eventualities covered.

Is Stanley Gene going to have a roll (behind the scenes) at rovers next season

Stan was offered a role but wanted to continue playing and hence went to Halifax

Will we have to ask Sky for an advance like we did last year ?

Do you expect the RFL to offer SL money early again this season , as they did last year?

We did NOT ask for and advance last year it was offered to all clubs.

The story on Look North has caused concern amongst fans, how has it affected Rovers attempts to get people on board to help finance the ground developments which we need.

I think in the main part, the story has just tried to re-hash what happened last year. I am not quite sure why us not filing the accounts on time this year has been any different from the last 2 years. I generally think that our support whilst concerned, to understand the facts and back ground as to what the situation is with finance in the club, don’t necessary appreciate the way that the local media go at it. What I don’t like is how unfounded rumours and speculation can influence, for example, potential sponsors and in the way it can de-stabilise the day to day trading position of the club.

Will Chris Chester and Bonesy still be at Rovers next year?


Bonsey left the club two years ago and Chris is a very important part of JM's backroom staff.

I know its a hated question.....but if no stadium developments just yet, is there any chance of sorting out the "ladies" ? i would be very grateful

We will do what we can

When are we going to get our season passes
Are the eletronic turnstiles going to be in place for 2010 Monday

Next couple of weeks, all the data has gone to Teamcard and the new turnstile readrers are arrving. All that has to be intergrated and linked up - all on schedule.

Neil you say that we need gates of 10,000 plus how come teams like Wakefield,Harlequins,Castleford,Celtic,Salford,Warrington,Bradford,Huddersfield survive.

They are all in a very similar position as ourselves

As a short-term measure could the club charge a say £5 for entry into the south stand (except for FC) - any money is better than none surely

Those incentives are in place from time to time and remains under review

Are we getting a new scoreboard?

Possibly - if it is self financing it will be there
