lets be honest, if was to release all 20 average players, then you would still try and sign them..

This is one of the main reasons weve been poor the past couple of years. We were told by our inept board that utility value was the future for SL. One or two maybe utility players fair enough but not a squad full.

Peter Sharp apeared to be a great fan of the utility player and Agar has tended to follow the same methods and ideals.

So Crocker, Long, Fitzgibbon & O'Meely, Luaki and (possibly) Moa are utility?

| Lets face it Richard Horne in his prime enabled him to get his brother a contract, he's now well past that and knows he is lucky to be there himself, so without any barganing power Hull have got rid of Grahame without a whimper.
King, was undoubtedly one of those players your ex coach labelled " a cancer within the club" and despite numerous trangressions was rewarded with another contract (s) so has been very lucky to last as long as he has.
Both these players may find a S.L. club at a lower level although to be fair it will hard to find one below their ex employer but its more likely one or both will probably end up in NL1.

Technically not correct though there has been dialogue between the 2 parties.
Wouldn't count on the 20/25 rule so would be a good signing in the context that he be an "extra" player in the squad.

[i"Clubs will also be allowed to spend a maximum of £50,000 on players outside the Top 25 earners who have made at least one first grade appearance for the club during the year".[/i

The 20/25 was the old name for it.
Anyway, at 17/18k his experience would represent decent value for money IMO.

| The 20/25 does not exist
So you are spending 2/5ths of your 50k on 1 player who will hardly feature
excellent value

When all's said and done, Justin Morgan's credentials in terms of squad construction have been verified by his success in terms of progressing the club.
It's all about choices and some might say that the money would be better spent elsewhere but I doubt you'll find another player with his SL experience for such a small salary.
For example; Greame Horne would command less than a 10th of Sean Berrigan's salary next year yet I'd be fairly confident Greame Horne would be fit and available for selection for more games next year.

True, but there's always an element of player responsibility in terms of their own development/progress at whatever stage of their career.
We'll see what happens to Mills anyway...

Thought the "mistake" had already been "rectified" according to a certain mod.
