Wanted AG but Peterborough want to much money.
He is happy with the midfield players he has.
Look at the money saved this summer on wages and tell me the budget has gone up how can it of gone up with what we’ve shipped out and brought in so far
GM is looking for a forward player.He is happy with the midfield players he has.Wanted AG but Peterborough want to much money.Resources are their if GM feels he needs to bring in player that are better than what he has.Both GM and GB believe they have the resources for atop six finish.GM believes he has the players for top six finish.Players committed to the way he wants to play.JM not for sale don’t need or want to sell him.ML kept because he will challenge NM.
What the hell does gavin Baldwin know about a budget for a top 6 finish im amazed at the garbage this man talks on a repeated basis
Capable of finishing in the top 6, really? Based on what exactly? Saying it enough times and believing it hard enough?The team struggled last season and finished 15th. In terms of what the club seem to think is possible this year, we were way off the pace in both depth and quality.Have we strengthened the team significantly since? No. Actually there's a fair case that we've not even replaced what we had.Does the manager's record suggest that he's any more capable than the last one? No, not yet anyway.These people must be on a different planet to everyone else if they think we have the tools to challenge for the top 6! It just doesn't add up at all.
Selby,I am pleased that the club will receive a payment if Mandy progresses on because I think he will with the right manager. I think these highlights of Morecambe v Bolton shows he has still got what it takes and will in the near future add money to our budget for players its a pity he still not here.https://www.morecambefc.com/news/2018/july/highlights-bolton-wanderers-0-0-morecambe/

What happened to the previous denials by the board that the Peterborough lot were making it up?This isn’t a dig at the board, by the way, it’s a genuine question as to why there was such a strong denial on here on behalf of the board when evidently we had been interested.

The club let Peterborough know that Marquis was not for sale. At no time did the club receive a bid for Marquis and we didn't enquire about Grant, officially.

You initially said we weren’t interested and they tried to force him on to us then declared their owner was making things up when he made a statement about the matter.

And that still remains the same. We never enquired about Grant. They wanted to include him in a deal for Marquis who isn't for sale. No official bids or enquiries were made. So, how can we have not been able to match their asking price, which was the original quote from Peterborough, if we didn't want him as part of a deal?
What was said?

Since 1969, have you considered that it was our manager that underperformed with the players at his disposal. I think he did in three consecutive seasons.

McCann said at last night's meeting that if Grant was available at the right price he would drive there to pick him up himself.He also said he had received two bids for Marquis and Baldwin also said he had received an offer from a Scottish club for him.As Filo said it was a public meeting so why shouldn't people know?
