    davenportram got a reaction from TigerTedd in The great Tommy Sleep out   
    Hi
    On Easter Saturday I will be swapping the luxury of my own bed for a night under canvas to raise awareness and funds for the British legions work with homeless veterans. At a time where we reflect on sacrifice I will be remembering the sacrifices of the few for the many, one of the few being my father who spent his retired life working with veterans and family. If you are able and want to help please donate via the fundraiser below

    In this house, we call that a holiday!  🤣
     
    As a father of a past-troubled veteran (hopefully ALL in the past now!), albeit never homeless, any help for our vets is a bit of a soft spot for me.
    I'm no Facebook stalwart, so it was a bit of a faff to donate (for me!)... but I got there. 
    Hope all goes well, and sincere thanks for your thoughts and generous actions.  Sterling work, sir.  💪👍

    Go back and read around the conditions for leaving administration. We are operating under an agreed EFL business plan for two years. Every transaction has to be within this business plan.

    Not seen the quotes about two pots for transfers? The business plan was part of the process of coming out of administration. It has agreed spending limits in. Do keep up

    davenportram got a reaction from Jackal in Has DC lost faith in the recruitment process?   
    The EFL business plan is complex
    A loan pot of money, a permanent transfer pot of money. that cannot be cross subsidise each other
    Maybe just maybe other clubs know this and the structuring of deals to make them work is too much for most, plus EFL approval makes the negotiations less straight forward.
     
    I agree that buying for buying sake is stupid, we need better than we have on permanents as we are going to go up a division.
    i reckon most of our loan pot when the Blackett -Taylor (loan to permanent) so the ability to loan players reduced.
    Now we get into free agents and  loans - can be as good as we’ve got, no need to be better, as good as we’ve got will cover for injuries and still get us promoted without having players not good enough for the championship on long contracts.
     
    anyway the EFL business plan ends this season so the next window is the real test of Warne and Clowrs in an unrestricted window

    The same could be said for the Rams other than Stafford.
    Duck the 9ers though, I've always thought of them like I do Leeds, and the fact that they part own Leeds only cements that.
    Go Chiefs!

    That Packets team is scary good for their age/experience. Experience would have got them over the line against the 49ers.

    davenportram got a reaction from taffyram in Has Warbeball really changed (not negative just a question)   
    Has Warneball changed? Or are we just able to do it better and for longer now the players fitness has improved (as Rotherham fans told me it would under Warne)
     
    At times early season we pressed, we passed quickly and players attacked at pace, but it wasn’t maintainable for 90 minutes. This in my opinion lead to us sitting deep defending and appearing to not have a plan B or just hoof it
     
    Now we are fitter, can pressure and press for prolonged periods and attack at pace for the full 90 (generally) meaning Warnes desired style is what we are seeing.
