Doncaster need new financial backing

Doncaster Rovers need new financial backing after two mult-millionaire directors stepped down from the board for unrelated reasons.   Dick Watson and Terry Bramall had matched the financial input of chairman John Ryan pound for pound in recent years and the onus is now on him.

He has already pumped millions of pounds into the club for more than a decade and whether he can continue to do so remains to be seen.  The budget has soared to £8m which far exceeds the income received from television and gate receipts and commercial activity.
