Firing Stanley into League One, he won't need much money he's just been in the Premier League!!
It depends what he wants to do after retiring - if we approach him with the few of becoming player-coach we can offer experience of working under the wing of a cracking football league manager, might make up for the lesser wages.
I would say Mark Roberts is quite good at his best but I genuinly wouldnt play him in front of edwards or hessey, or kevin long for that matter.. byrom wouldnt get in the team either. Hes barely played all season and he got lucky by playing in the first leg against us due to injuries, no chance of getting in our midfield this season
if u class mark roberts and joel byrom as flourished then i rest my case. imho they wud not get into our team above proctor/joyce or edwards /hessey
If you don't class winning the Conference and being in a Play-Off final as flourishing besides the fact they both built there careers back through non-league football after leaving Stanley then I don't know what is?
What a load of rubbish that is !!! We have one of the smallest squads in the league 2 and the lowest wage bill in the football league and probably the conference aswell included!!
A player like Chris Turner was a good player and a player like him was on peanuts! So getting rid of players like him is simply not about money!!
unfortunatly now we need our chairman to up the game with investers etc! We need to not get rid of players because we cant afford other players wages, we need to sort practical and good wages for players we need to keep etc! if we dont then were just going nowhere and it will be the on going cycle were all imune to now!
isnt this a good thing thought?at least it now seems the club are now spending within their means,yes we have IK to back the club but he should not be bank rolling the club,all businesses have to run to a buget and it seems for the 1st time the club is doing so
