Hume 1 Posted May 30 Author Share Posted May 30 That may be the case, Rab, but we have lost Cordoba to Norwich City. That is due to salary and nothing else I don't it's because Norwich will be in Europe next year. They have no chance so effectively we don't have enough to offer Cordoba enough of a salary. Lets see what the Argentinian brings, he looks next on the list we may get lucky. WATP 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like predictions of administration are too optimistic. If we can't afford Cordoba then we are heading for another liquidation.

Players go to such English clubs as Norwich as it offers them a faster route to a Premiership contract, and that's about the height of many players ambitions.

CammyF 8,080 Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 Given our top priority is to reduce the wage bill, I don't see how we can get upset losing a player to Norwich who'll pay more and give a better opportunity to get into EPL. If you look at Clement's recruitment in Belgium, he signed players from South America, Africa and surrounded them with players from Belgium / Europe. Looks like he'll be doing the same here - bringing in players on circa £7K instead of £30-£40K. Then sell them on at a profit Worked for him previously and its the model we'll need to succeed here. If it does, we've won a watch 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
