Salopian 1 Posted June 5, 2009 I think that we may be surprised:There will be some transfer proceeds to reinvest - Clingan, MarshallFoulger may persuade some to leave their rebates in the pot, which he will double. It won''t raise too much, I think, but may finance the odd "signing-on fee"I am cynic enough to believe that some of the transfer proceeds will be used to reduce debt, but some, I believe, will be used to enlarge the squad. The apparent interest in Grant Holt of Shrewsbury, if genuine, suggests some money will be spent. Having got most of the high wage earners off the books, we may be able to offer higher wage inducements to potential players.Nelson, given another week by his club, may still be a Bosman option, so the absence of news may indicate that things take time to work out.Given the size of the squad, and the stated intention of not using (as many) loanees, sheer desperation will lead to some signings.

Delia et al will put some cash in if only to hold off the baying wolves. BG will have had promises made and I think he will have money plus the wages to get some players in, but they will be league 1 players - freebies and outcasts all, no doubt.It is incredibly frustrating for us interested bystanders, but I do also recognise that with the minimal cash we will have, the search is going to take some time. Otherwise we would have already been making noises about Gow I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
