    19 in 27 at Grimsby in L2 but knack all higher suggests he might just be the right kind of striker for our league, but not one for when we go higher.

    Can't see us being able to compete with Salford. I still don't know how the salary cap works really. Does it mean everyone has to offer him a similar wage? If that's the case, then I'm guessing clubs are going heavy on the bonus system to attract players.

    Been a bit bored on my lunch break so did a bit of digging. I believe this is Mcaleny's brother on twitter who doesn't seem convinced he's going anywhere. I searched back on his profile and it looks like they've tagged each other in stuff etc. So I'm sure they are related. Worth sharing anyway.

    Hope everyone is having a good day anyway, fingers crossed for those points tonight.

    Can't help thinking of the Oli McBurnie sell on clause saga (close relation says no).

    Can’t help thinking that Simon Parker publishing one name we had considered has over hyped this rumour. Twice the two managers have said he isn’t the number one target. So we shall see

    But surely a bonus it part of a wage!

    Personally I don’t think he’ll come, we’ve already been told no by the sound of it when we enquired and in this climate probably aren’t going to be chucking silly money around on transfer fees. That said Parker has now run 2 articles on him which is unusual for both a rumour that doesn’t come off and one that does. Unless he is doing it on the club’s behalf as smoke and mirrors for our main target.

    Yeah bonuses are included within the salary cap, except if they're earned through cup wins I believe

    I personally think we have a striker lined up but waiting for the Novak out deal to be finalised.
    Im not convinced he's injured.

    Bonus payments fall within the cap.

    Im totally reading between the lines of not once has his so called injury been discussed with detail.
    Leg injury??
    back injury??
    Not a dickie bird.
    Truemans interview after the Cambridge game had a bit of imo rehearsed communication about Novak.
    We will see although Novaks contract is up in August and he will be nearly 33.
    Maybe another club can give him 2.5 years right now whereas we might have offered him 1??
    Who knows??

    Don't you just love it when these fake transfer accounts are shown up. Looks like the account has been deleted now. Very odd people out there to create those accounts, I don't get it.

    Wonder who is top of our list, Danny Johnson from Leyton Orient anyone?

    I'd take Grigg in a breath, when we beat Wigan the other year with that Robinson screamer he was warming up in front of us City fans and getting pelters and giving if back this went on for several minutes so if nothing else he has a sense of humour.

    T&S are keen and obviously are no pushovers.They have demonstrated intent to right wrongs and I am confident that whoever they bring in will add value to the team. If we miss out on McAleny I trust their judgement in getting the best for us.
