    To be honest, i think they'll attract a lot of interest in our league

    and we'll get priced out, think our biggest need is a left footed, left sided full back.

    As I am now accepted as Prime Minister I shall instruct Mr Cryne to buy the aforementioned players..

    ... and put them on my expenses.</p>

    Should be able to get away with that ?</p>

    Don't forget he's after Andy Gray

    And tried to sign Phillips last year.

    Point is we can't afford many proven Championship players.

    They Want 500,000 Pound For McSheffrey.....

    according to Daily Star. That's a bargain for someone who cost 4 million not long since.

    I'd rather have McShefferey for 500K than Andy Gray for 600K.

    I's nap their hands off at that price. Don't know what the wages would be like but he was prepared to offer Phillips more money than Birmingham, so you never know.

    Would love to have Marcus Bent though - if only for Gemma Atkinson to visit the 'well sometime :) (if they're still together).

    To be fair, I would too. Younger aint he? Always rated both but Gray does seem to be on the slide now. This Gray deal is taking too long - we need someone now.

    agree, 500k is good, but i doubt that he would allow breaking whatever structure or cap is there with wages. So although cheap to buy, i don't think this will even be up for discussion

    McSheffery plays as a left winger more than an out and out striker....
