There is no way that everyone else in L2 pays so much more than we do that we simply cannot entice anyone down here.
doubt any players will negotiate seriously with us until we have a manager
Or, they've spent the last 3/4 weeks not receiving wages, have no guarantees that they will be getting a contract here and need to pay their bills.
I have picked these points from Matt.Shane and Cambgulls post,because i think they are valid and relevant here,as we all know the club is in a difficult position right now,however i do see all three sides in the above quote's
To me Matt is right our club compared to most league 2 clubs not all,are really not that bad in terms of wages they pay,if this was the case we would have no players,well certainly not any good enough for league 2 anyway.
To combine the second two quote's,shane makes a very good point ,and i agree i think it would be foolish for our club to tie any players to contracts with out the say so of the new manager ,who of course may not want them,but also as Cambgull points out ,league 2 players do not earn that much and as we all know its about security for players at this level.
It would appear that the club has not contacted any of these players,if that really is the case then i view that as shamefull,our club of course could not enter into contract talks with any of the players,but should have had the common deceny to have phoned them given them an update on what was happening and a time line for a new manager appointment,this in all honesty may not have stopped Stanley and Robinsn signing elsewhere,however would have atleast given the option of signing for Torquay to the players,which it looks like were not given to them.
