    Time to test the skill of our recruitment director.

    How serious the "bids" for KM were,nobody will ever find out.I suspect we had no intention of putting in a serious offer.We've been down this road before with the likes of May,Dikho,Gregory ,etc.The board seem incapable of adopting a sensible plan to take this club forward.Moore can now be added to this list of "nearly" targeted players.The board brought in a recruitment director,he has had plenty of time to assess the situation,when are we likely to see the fruition of this appointment?Could it be yet another smokescreen?Now is the time Mr.Chairman to show us you what mean about a top 5 budget.With the addition of two or possibly three signings, we are more than capable of reaching the playoffs.This season the division is very poor whereas next season could be more difficult.It's never been a better time to invest in the team.

    So are you saying we should pay whatever Moore wants in salary?
    Can you explain why this is good business sense ?
    Can you explain how this could effect the moral of the team ?
    If we blow all our budget on one player and he gets injured how would that make sense ?

    Do you know what we offered ?
    Do you know what the going rate is ?

    Your trying to recruit players beyond the club's financial capability .

    The knack is to discover the talent when it's relatively unknown and off the radar .

    Marc Roberts Halifax 25k

    Alfie Mawson Brentford minimal

    Brought in £9m those two alone .


    Then your in the market to buy Kieffer Moore or even better , buy him from Yeovil for £10k .

    That's how it is mate , your shopping in the wrong market .

    Our chairman says we shop at Harrods. We know we can't really afford to shop at Lidl 😕
