palmy_cammy Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 (edited) I can see why latest wages before a move come into play, but the "status of the two clubs" sounds to me like something unfairly designed to ensure that the redistribution of the game's wealth is restricted further. Absolutely. It's a very big leap to suggest that because, for example, The Rangers are historically a bigger club with a shinier more expensive training complex than us that a player brought up through the ranks there and coached by such luminaries as Ian Durrant and Kenny McDowell has had a better education than one trained at Broadwood by James Fowler and Jim McIntyre. Should it be a factor they consider? Probably yes. Should it be the first factor considered? A resounding no.

Also I'm sure the newly offered contract has to be better than the last one the player was on, even if it was just £1.Anyway we all know everything is weighed towards the so called big clubs. Doncaster wouldn't want it any other way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sloop John B Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 It's probably not that bad seeing as it would be a good test against a somewhat similar level opposition rather than playing some dross or getting outclassed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you lot that go to the games week in and week out wonder why the crowds keep going down. Yaaaaawn! How many would have been there if we did play in la manga? I'm sure hundreds were there and were put off going to other games against hibs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottishyeltz Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 It's too frequent too, once per season and maybe a cup game would be nice 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottishyeltz Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Could you imagine being a Carlisle fan and having games against the likes of Hull and Luton four times per season? I'd rather be in the pub 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skyline Drifter Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Did we have a friendly with hibs in la manga? No, just Wigan. Hibs were there at the same time but we didn't play against them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
