It will be harder for P Cox to attract the caliber of players he recruited at Mansfield, that's a given, But in saying that it's not the polar opposite that some usually suggest, Most players are mercenary by nature but not all.
Yes our location is a big hurdle to overcome but its not impossible, Yes we will most probably have to pay over the odds to entice the standard of players to take us to the next level, that being a top 8 CP side.
Our stock as a club is rising steadily & hopefully will continue to rise & as it keeps rising it makes P Cox's job of bringing in the players he wants easier.
P Casson taking over raised our stock, Then Edmo winning us the title/promotion raised it further & Now P Cox is taking us further by getting us to the highest league placing we have enjoyed for many a year, Players look where you finished in the league not where you were in Sept or Jan, Throw into the mix everything else going on like our plans for the stadium redevelopment & the backroom staff slowly becoming more professional..........yes we all know we have had problems answering email.calls.the club shop etc etc but we are addressing these issues & getting better.
Hopefully a top 12 placing & everything else stated above & PC's wallet & Cox's pedigree will get enough of the targeted players to sign on the dotted.
Then everything gets repeated the following year & fingers crossed we turn into a top 6 club.
