I think having nine inverted wingers on the books would really have been taking the p155.

This is just a massive well done all round to the club for attracting an exciting player and then when he made unreasonable demands telling him to do one and going elsewhere.

I believe Noel told a number of people, including some nobbers, at the Bearwood open day that a player we were very close to signing had asked for more money and was waiting to see if he could get better elsewhere rather than signing.

I don't think it takes too much to put 2 and 2 together to get Bowler

Yes- and my guess is that they pivoted to Lane at that moment, as that one seemed to come rather out of the blue and not long after

And for my money, Lane is the better option. Already looks bright, played a key role in promotion just 2 seasons ago, young enough to improve and be sold for a profit. Bowler's career has stagnated since leaving Blackpool 3 years ago, and sometimes players don't rediscover their best form.

And if he saw the facilities and demanded more money, I suspect his stagnation may relate to attitude.
