That will be the real problem..... Its the Moneyball effect

You either go crazy and spend silly money trying to compete or you stick to your budget by being willing to let players go when their heads are tuned.

You then have to reload from the lower divsions.

While not popular I hope the board sticks to the plan of not over extending.

If someone wants to offer us 8 Million for Pilkington then we should take it.

Hopefully the financial fair play stuff will help the smaller clubs compete somewhat.

I think we could actually start to see problems develop in the JAN transfer window.

It would not surprise me to see heads turned by offers from bigger clubs.
