But would have to pay a transfer fee...

And a signing on fee.

He doesn't have the rapore with the fans that Sutton does. And Sutton is a proven goal scorer at a much higher level than Howard, and has played at a much higher level.

If we are serious about promotion, I really think we've got to be looking at better players than Howard.

Horsefield would be a better signing
