I think, like virtually every other team from the premiership down, if another club comes in with an offer which meets the valuation of any player's club and said player is more than interested in the proposed move then that club will normally have no option than to sell. CFC is no different in this respect.
I, personally, like the idea of town producing a conveyor belt system of young players to first team level and then selling them on for good money. I think this could provide a way forward for a lower league club like ours.
There is obviously a price at which we cannot say "no" and we would not want an unhappy player, no matter how good he is, in our changing room. Neither would we want this unhappy player walking away in twelve months time with the fee to be set at a tribunal.
If the money is right and the player wants to go then we will have achieved the best possible result for the club in respect of that particular player.
As far as CB is concerned, whilst I think we will need more cover during the season, I personally would be looking to sign a tall pacy RB first so that Tendayi can move further forward and give us more midfield options. This would give us more height in defence and retain pace as cover along the ground for what could amount to a very slow CB pairing of Evatt & Hird.
If this could be achieved I'd forget Boco and Featherstone as Tendayi could play in any of the five midfield positions but I would like to sign another striker but not on the wages being touted around as what Higdon wants.
Good post.
With regards to Boco & Featherstone..are they better than what we have now??? I don't think so. Boco made a wrong decision not choosing us last season...Cook would have brought him on leaps & bounds.....from what I've seen, he doesn't look any better than Randall (Oooops)

A million for a defender from a recently promoted l2 team..!
If he does go...can we insert a sell on clause as the selling club?
