If that is the case then its worrying in the extreme and may explain why we seem up to now to have been unable to even recruit any striker, not to mention one with a decent scoring record and reputation which is what we need..
As more than one poster has said: "What is going on, how come we can't seem to compete in the market"?
I would imagine Shrewsbury are paying wages for a starter and we are offering wages for a substitute which he was for the majority of the time with us.
I’m not sure what a players reputation has to do with it, ability is what’s required.
Rumour on FB is that Shrewsbury are giving him 7k a week. If they think he is worth that then good luck to them, but no way was he worth being our highest paid player. Very glad we did not give in to that sort of wages request, it shows we are bing run sensibly.
But we do have to replace him with quality, because he was quite good when he came on.
Lol I wouldn’t listen to rumours on FB ffs.
Anyway BlueArmy I’m sure will be able to tell us all the details.
