'If It's Football, It's Vital'
Good news is players want in!
As said previously its too soon to cast judgement on CSI, in general and what their transfer plans will be, but it makes a real change to have 'links' to players and feel more of a genuine optimism that we may well pull off the signings.
Not having a constant 'never gonna happen' thought with each link we read, of course some will not come off for whatever reason, makes a refreshing change and its nice not feeling totally pessimistic about the chances of landing a player(s).
The best thing of all is that 'rumoured targets' are starting to talk up their willingness to sign for us!
This means 'part of the battle' is won.
Agreeing a realistic and sustainable deal, that is mutually beneficial - and not just a 'one way street', as used to be the case - is what we then need.
Brian Howard has spelt out, with his comments in The News this weekend, that he wants in and that is a positive thing, right?
Hungry, eager and talented players are what we need, and what I want to see at PFC.
These players wanting to play for us - as he says he does (of course we cannot be too naïve in our belief of what players say) - is exactly what we need and want...
PLAY UP POMPEY!

that said i would like to think, infact hope, that we DO still have a decent business plan in mind and we stick to our guns with a sensible wage cap in place. £10,000 p/w, absolute tops, is still more than enough and is the maximum we should be paying for the 'better' players.
lampitt needs to stick strong on this and we have to hope that CSI are also looking to be strong on this front and continue to tell cotts 'no' if he looks to break this. if he does not like hearing no then we bring in someone that will be more realistic.
