Hucks was luck - a good bit of buisiness followed by challenging for promotion

Ashton came to the prem, only us and palace were interested.

Erny was out of favour in the prem, our stock was still high and we were the only team willing to offer the asking price. I get the impression he wanted out desperatly.

But our stock was far higher than now for these two.
