    Was Radlinger not a free agent last season when we signed him?

    Get Shotton signed up too, now we're short of a right back!

    Irvine, Gestede, Shotton. Whiteman from Donny. Bosh.

    ...will never happen.

    Quality player though, and without a club it might be an opportunity! No fee. Offer him 6k

    I think there's a reason all these players have been released, and it's the wages they're on. Post covid cutbacks so it just depends how much these players want to play for as to whether they play for a while.

    Does ring a bell actually, which is why he only had a one year deal.

    That's the thing for me - if we are able to get a few lads in who are hungry to start again in their career then it's worth pursuing. But if they're just waiting for a pay day then it won't happen.

    Andy King: source Wikipedia:

    He won the League One, Championship and Premier League titles in 2009, 2014 and 2016 respectively, making him the first and only player to win the top three divisions with the same team in the Premier League era.

    Some stat is that

    Should be phone call as follows to his agent:
    DM "yes I know we are offering £3k a week and he was on 10x that but he's on nothing at the moment. Besides with win, assist and goal bonuses that goes up to £6k. Season long contract and he's in shop window with a £500k buyout clause rather than sat at home doing DIY. "

    Agent: "We'll think about it".

    DM: "deal on table for 8 hours then off as we are looking at someone and have to give an answer"

    Even if he leaves in January he might have put us on course to staying up, we'll have recouped his wages and he'll have developed some of our strikers. 4-4-2 with Woodrow playing off him.

    King is a Midfielder but your comments are still valid. Styles, Palmer, Wolfe and even Mowatt could learn a lot from him. Add Rudi Gestede and we’ve a spine of a team.
