well a lot of rumours at our end that we have a reduce budget, - not that it's necessarily true. But I personally doubt we have the money to offer 'significantly better terms' (as hurst put it), to a player in what could be considered an unglamourous position. It's probably just the case that we...

and, as I have mentioned before, do Bristol Rovers fans deep deep down, want to be promoted under him? The anniversary dinners with him as guest of honour? I wouldn't want it, but then I wouldn't be going to games if he was my...
