To my mind though, Bailey was the best of the recent bunch we have had come through.

That would enable him to offer the key men Miller and Devitt improved contracts from the savings in wages of the released 9.
And mean that once the takeover is done he could then shop in a different place for decent defenders probably meaning Morrisons rather than Lidl !

I'd like Fortnum & Mason but the batch last season looked like they had come from B & M Bargains

Either that or it's fallen through and we are going to have a tiny budget

I can only imagine Fleming as taken a pay cut to save his job.

Dream on. No takeover is near and I'll be surprised if one happens before the end of summer. To sell the club it needs a realistic price for a business with no assets and losing a six figure sum every year.

On what basis? We've only seen him in reserve games and some outings in Conf North. Jim will have seen him every day in training for a year and will be able to have seen whether he had what it takes to make the cut at League 2 level.

He only played for 20 minutes!
