Wycombe Royal DOYLERSAROYALER Sign of the times when we cant even compete with Div 1 teams in transfer market
On what basis are we competing for the signature of Stock? Rodgers was obviously interested but he has gone and we have plenty of midfielders.
Also Stock is a Southampton fan and comes from there, so the move for him wouldn't be about money.
Stock has been mentioned a number of times as a possible target, both under Coppell as well as Rodgers ...the fact that he has been linked during both managers reigns, would suggest that McDermott may have identified him in his role of chief scout, as a player Reading would be interested in.....and Rodgers interview when asked about Stock, made it pretty evident that this wasnt just paper talk.
However getting back to point, we cannot compete in the transfer market as we do not have funds to - the point Im raising is about our ability to buy a player, and not what a players personal terms would be
