...but you're scenario was unrealistic

because we would have invested in a quality player if Holt was sold when he had real value. We wouldn't have been looking at Becchio in that kind of scenario.

To answer your question though, Hughton would have been an utter moron to replace a proven prem goalscorer with a champs striker who had never played in the prem, I would have said that even without the benefit of hindsite.

Ah well, lucky point but we'll take it. Holt has to go at the end of the season, remember (NCFC) - DrDublin, Apr 6, 17:36:17
- That I can agree with. (n/m) (NCFC) - Steve in Holland, Apr 6, 17:47:06
- I can kind of understand Holt's frustrations because he has been misused like many others (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 6, 17:39:30
  - Caused a big problem for Hughton really. (NCFC) - mr chimp, Apr 6, 17:44:27
    - Would we buy Becchio after selling Holt for ?4-5 million? I highly doubt it. (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 6, 17:50:34
      - Not quite the point I was trying to make, but fair enough. (NCFC) - mr chimp, Apr 6, 17:54:49

        *your scenario (fucking hell!) (n/m) (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 6, 18:01:54
  - I don't think he wants to be here and I think he sort of knows he won't be season end. (n/m) (NCFC) - DrDublin, Apr 6, 17:41:48
    - will he find another club to pay him more than us? (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Apr 6, 17:43:49
      - How much do you think he's worth now? Could have got ?4-5 million for him in the summer. (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 6, 17:46:22
        
        yep, maybe a desperate champs team or relegation struggler might want him (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Apr 6, 17:52:09
      - this is the problem (n/m) (NCFC) - Brandonio, Apr 6, 17:44:43
        
        in hindsight we perhaps should've let him go in the summer (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Apr 6, 17:49:06
    - I don't think that he really wanted to be here in the summer to be honest (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Apr 6, 17:43:19
      - Yeah which kind of makes sense. (n/m) (NCFC) - DrDublin, Apr 6, 17:44:02
