    It's Tony Stewart not Warne.

    You think now knowing ladepo doesn't wanna be here Warne doesn't want to go out and get another striker ??

    Only thing stopping him is Tony Stewart and his wallet

    I agree on face value we should.

    But balancing the books comes into it as we won't be paying all his wages.

    You don't know what attitude he has or influence in the changing room

    Our season doesn't come down to tilt on loam to Wigan it comes down to the 40 plus games we have played.

    Tony Stewart has made it clear that money is available this window, it is not warnes job to balance the books or worry about such matters, the board will allocate the money for transfers and wages, if they tell him he can strengthen his squad and he chooses not to then that is foolish as all teams around us will and you should always strengthen when in a good place. The loss of Grigg, potentially Sadlier and freddie unhappy is very likely to damage our chances of a top two position, what a missed opportunity that would be.
    If Grigg goes back we should recall Tilt even if we have no intention to play him this is not the time to be nice.
    We are doing so well we look solid and the players we have are giving everything, lets add to that group and complete the season in the top two, Warne and team deserve a lot of credit for what we have achieved lets build on it

    I agree with all off that.

    Surely any deal with ladepo to sunderland would include grigg staying at rufc to end off the season. (,makes sense),

    Hard part will be trying to get players who can improve us.

    Surely got to be looking at championship players or the stars off league 1 or 2 (which would be very difficult to get )

    Unless scotty and the team unearth even more hidden gems

    Just because there is money to spend it does not mean there is value for money available in the market.

    It's not fees It's wages to balance books. Hope it's a quick exit for Ladapo then will have to look at a forward on the way up in our budget re. wages.

    If Grigg is the bait to get Freddie then i hope we don't take it. There's no sell-on with Grigg, plus maybe bigger wages than Freddie. We need a younger version of Grigg. I know every team are looking for the same.
    Freddie is mobile when he wants to be, Grigg isnt, full stop. JJ can blind them both for movement.
    If FL goes then i hope we a take good young un from the Prem and a bit of a gamble from Non league/lower league................UTM

    What we should be saying to Wigan is, make us a realistic offer this window otherwise we will recall him. I believe that's what we are saying too.
