Peterborough appear to have a good scouting and recruitment network that is able to consistently find gems from the lower leagues. We, on the other hand haven’t had decent recruitment since the days of BSA (bar a few decent signings by Megson)

It’s something that I hope new owners put in place, don’t think I can stand many more signings of washed-up journeymen. 

Have to say our recruiting has been poor other than the U16s in recent years and only a few of them will make it as professionals. Peterborough have also just signed a cracking young wing back from King's Lynn - only seen him once but he was the best player on the park by a country mile. Bench warmer at best for now, but next year...

There are some great young players about like that lad Hickey who played in the Scottish cup final last week at the age of 16 and totally looked the part. New owners need to sort the scouting out.

How will R Madrid afford Hazard?

He's in the last year of his contract so if they don't sell him now, they risk losing him for nothing in 12 months time.

Madrid know this, so they'll try to bargain it down.

I know what you're saying though - on his day he's in the very top 3-4 players in the world.

We have 6 players under contract. Until the new owners are in place that is all we will have - and any of those can technically walk away for free if they choose. Lads out of contract will take offers elsewhere because well, they can't hang around and hope.

Been told Vela is supposed to be signing for Salford City too, don't shoot the messenger!

It seemed a natural fit. They can also pay him more than he was on at wanderers for the last 3 months
