But the players identified didn't want to join

OK

example the defender we wanted costs 80/90k a week to join... and McNally was only offering 30/40. If we signed this Italian defender/defenders on a 2/3 year deal... And we then get relagated? It's a massive gamble a gamble he didn't want to risk, a risk no club the size of our club and income should Make
