Theres that many free agents out there and players looking for clubs we really shouldn't be paying a fee for anyone

Nuttall is nailed on, as is beggle, please excuse my spelling, but trust me there done deals, we'll be fine this coming season
Love many, trust afew, but always paddle your own canoe ! My spelling is gash

I hope you're right bud, do you think it would it be a transfer or a loan move? Could be the marquee signing I/we had been hoping for.
We will foller the soccer, over land and sea...

I bet there is better free agents with better records than nuttall so I can't see a fee being paid as they would want to recuperate alot of the transfer fee they paid for him so I can see a season long loan deal

There will be free agents with better records than Nutall - but there will be bigger clubs than Barrow looking to snap them up!

On paper, and based on how highly-rated he was 18 months ago, he'd be a very good signing for this level.

Exactly - that's why it would be a coup to sign him.

If and when they sign they will be Good Additions. Doesn't look like Crosdale is going to sign as apparently unsure weather he wants to leave Fylde.

We've bought 2 players so far - one was Platt. Sometimes you have to pay to get that bit of extra quality in.

The other was James Jones, who looks to be a very good signing

On the Joe Nuttall rumours,
From Blackpool's point of view it makes sense to sell the player with 2 years remaining on his contract and re-coup at least some of the likely £500,000 they have paid, and that would free space on their wage bill, alternatively they could hang on to him, pay him and likely get nothing back transfer-wise.
From JNs point of view he would link back up with DD - they seemingly have a close relationship and in all honestly not many clubs have the ability to pay a fee for a player except us.
Despite the COVID situation this club has more financial clout than its had at any time in the last 50 years, this doesn’t make us wealthy just in a better situation that many many other teams. We need to take advantage of that while we can. Joe Nuttall would be an excellent signing if it comes off.

We aren't suddenly going to be spending six figures on a player though. Can only really be a loan deal.

What a load of rubbish. We have had no income since March. Fanzone/HS end and endless other improvements. Cant agree sorry....
