Having played a key role in our improvement I thought that Stobbs and Collins were bound to have attracted the attention of other NL clubs, but more than happy that
they have signed.
So presumably you were confident that they would sign then - yeah right.
thought we had a chance with Stobbs since he was deemed surplus to requirements at a middling NL side. Collins is a surprise though, given he was at a League 2 side, and had done really well for us - felt he'd get at least a decent National League offer, maybe even League 2.
both of these do make me wonder what sort of contracts we've been able to put together, though. It doesn't seem indicative of a club trying to pinch every penny - although we'll be saving the money that Olaf, Moyse etc were on.
By my count we're up to 15 contracted players now, plus whatever happens with Martin and Lovett.
