Okay, let's try this another way. 'In your opinion' do you expect work to commence on the East stand before the summer, and do you anticipate anymore player movement during this window (either in or out)? Assuming the club is still up for sale, do you reckon we'll have new owners before the season ends?
This is a public message board, so feel free to give your opinion. Wink

So, has Bower decided to get the cheque book out again? If it’s true it makes you wonder why we held a trial game the other week.

I think of it this way. We have sold 2 of our highest earners in this transfer window, have released a player who was never playing but taking up a portion of the wage budget and allowed a loanee who would have also been paid by us (a % of his wages at least).

That free's up money to allow new players to come in. I wouldn't be surprised if the wages KvV was on could cover the cost of 2 players. It is a fact of football that when a club gets relegated, costs have to be brought down to fall in line with the loss of income that comes with playing in a division below.

Yes, the entirety of the wages free'd up by KvV and Crooks leaving may not be available to Curle for new players but a decent portion of it will be.

There is now way that players like Hoskins, Foley, Morias are earning anywhere near the amount that Crooks and KvV were. Rather than looking for star players who only perform in 1 game out of 5, Curle is probably looking for consistent players that do perform each week. They won't light up the world like Crooks did at Macclesfield or van Veen did ocassionaly but for the 4 games when those players didn't turn up, the new signings hopefully will.

People seem to think that Kasim no longer costs us anything. He was contracted to the end of the season so he either accepted a pay off(slightly less than he would have got had he seen out his contract), is still being paid by us or walked away thinking "NTFC need the money more than me". So it's unlikely we can bring in another player with what we have "saved" on Kasim

To try and see if there are any bargains available?

Signing Ibhere would bring back not too fond memories of when we signed Clive Platt.....he was mid-thirties and on the downhill slope of his career........

Ibhere is currently injured and missed CU's last game and the upcoming one too. Are you suggesting that KC signs an injured player? Hope not Roll Eyes

I think it likely that everyone would assume the same: No
                                                                         Yes
                                                                          No
