Tatty , Terry and Dick sold Keepmoat for £783 million , so the 200 million figure is way off the mark.
Dick's wealth is about £150 million while Terry's is upwards of £500 million , he recently donated over £2million to his old university to build a music room and has placed over £100 million in a charitable trust.
You cant deny that the two guys who made their money in Doncaster invested in the place where they made their money.......... Doncaster.
These guys where very successful business men and look to run the Keepmoat like a business.
You don't get wealth like that by being foolish ,you work hard and know the value of money and how hard you had to work for it.
They didn't wake up one morning and have the money in the bank, these guys worked hard .
They make up the shortfall from the Rovers budget every year ,which I believe is around 3 to 5 million .
Just because someone is a multi millionaire doesn't mean they should throw money around ,they have backed CH every year and every year CH hasn't delivered.
Richardc i admire your loyalty to Carl but the truth is , he is out his depth and the sooner the Rovers realise that, the better for the club.
We need a real CEO with new ideas to move the club forward and make the 5 year plan a reality instead of pie in the sky.
No-one doubts the guys love for the club , it is simply a business matter and Carl fails on that point alone.
Where else in business would you talk the talk every year but then fail to deliver and still be in your roll.............................I will tell you ....know where.
If someone in your business performed like Carl I'm sure he would be given his cards and sent on his way.
I'm looking forward to the season , I hope RH can produce some exciting rugby and push for promotion but i feel we will be fighting to finish in the top four with the squad we have , and that is no disrespect to the players , i think Hulls injuries will have a big impact on the calibre of player we recieve on DR and with some quality signings at most of our rivals it will be a challange to compete with the likes of Bradford ,York and the Cumbrians.
