Quote: sogspurs "Does the contract have to be a season long one? I doubt we would be able to sign this calibre of player but as we must have room for more players to fill in lovegroves cap space plus any other cap space we had left, spending that on only the second half of the season could effectively double the players monthly wage, or have I completely missed the point of the salary cap with that?
Fag packet maths says that a £39k player not signed in January could leave us being able to sign a £78k player in July - December with release clauses if we don't get promoted?'"
That is exactly the kind of approach I was thinking of.
