I've seen it too many times with us now

The whole Ian Moore thing, the lua lua thing went on forever, until Newcastle came in and offered ?2m. But we weren't offering the ?1m they wanted, we were teetering about on 800k as usual

We've made a point of doing this over and over and over again, even before Delia with Windass

Yet, we're sat here today in 2009, staring at relegation, and you know next season they'll be a player up for ?400k (like Holt), and we'll let it go on and on and on until someone else signs him

Or, with the one player in 5/6 that it works with, we'll brag about how we got them to lower it from 400k to 100k like holt

It's a total false economy, because the ones we miss out on, we bemoan in future of them becoming good for their own respective teams that they do sign for full time
