what would it cost us to sign him up for a season £30k

Probably not even that. I think an offer around the 20 mark would be considered as a starting point.

so is there a businessman on here that is willing to keep this player for a season

Without wishing to go OTT, and only having seen the highlights of the game, he does look like he's got a bit about him.

With a concerted effort, this is the sort of money the fans could raise.

Don't know what Liam is on now but to top up his contract to 20k would make sense. With a possible upgrade at the end of next year.

Anything in the SB fund?

I thought that but from what I can remember we only managed 2K when we sponsored the 3 players a few yrs ago

would be a massive ask

Fair enough, mate. Maybe contributions to the ST may help then, if they're allowed to buy in. Just seems to me on the very limited amount of evidence I have that Liam may be one of the players we need in our reduced budget spend. And you never know - pick a few good young'uns with some experienced guys to lead them round the park, and you may get a lot more than you bargained for.

we offered less than donny and they also have him a job! pretty pathetic really !

If this is true, it will seriously dent my optimism in the new regime; Liam Kay is a potential mainstay of our squad for the future - we must retain players like this!

If he plays a season at Donny, he'll get picked up by a SL club for the following year and we'll have lost another.

He's more likely to make a name for himself at Wakey than Donny

But if the money's already spent, then it's already spent. It doesn't have anything to do with the new regime, more the old one.
