What are your questions for Doncaster

Where is all of the proposed extra revenue coming from, The Government? Considering cuts in defense, education, hospitals, council staff etc. Where is this magic pot of money coming from.

TV revenue?, In these difficult times who is going to have money to spend on sport on TV, let alone the extra number of viewers required to make things pay their way, even advertising is getting tight across the board. one word could sum up these elusive promises and that is Setanta.

I would assume with in 2 years of a 10 & 12 team league, the TV broadcasters will turn around and say that this is no longer financially viable.

The SPL will then realize that its the fans that support their club through thick and thin and not Television.

Explain how this will improve the chances of our youth becoming great players for Scotland How can our youth be involved when the league is tighter and there is supposedly more money to spend on foreign players, I hope colt teams isn't your answer, as the question wasnt how are you going to help the old firm create great players ? Small clubs dont want colt teams.

Whats in it for you Neil Will you earn more money or less money if this goes ahead.

  • I would start with asking him to produce the facts and figures to back his financial claims because from what I can gather nothing adds up........ TV Money Claims clubs would lose £1 Mill

  • I have no questions for him as I believe he has neither the integrity or intelligence to answer them honestly or with any degree of capability.

  • What evidence can you provide to disprove this statement by Ayr United chairman Lachlan Cameron: ?In the grand scheme of things, the money doesn?t flow down properly. There are two teams who run

It could also equate to money-spinning matches which are scheduled for a Saturday being rearranged for a midweek in the depths of winter so probably not good for ICT in that regard.

I've come to the conclusion that Doncaster either can't answer all the questions that are being asked, or he's scared that the plans would be made to look ridiculous if he were to submit himself to any kind of open discussion/debate with fans on the matter.

Every time "Fan Concerns" are brought up the only point he ever talks about is "We can't have a 16 or 18 team league" he doesn't seem willing to acknowledge that fans are more intelligent than that and that our concerns/desires for the game go beyond the debate on just the league size.

A Question Time style debate where every club (across all leagues) gets to nominate one fan to make up the audience numbers and Doncaster can put together his own panel would make for very interesting Radio/TV and might actually force them in to listening, addressing and answering the many questions that are going around.

I particularly like the last line of the last paragraph,

"And it's what fans tell us they want."

Whats the chance that he will sort out the league structure the way majority of fans have been telling him?
