Let's put these better players cure all to bed. Wroe admittedly has been a surprise (be honest) but stated he would have left whatever was offered and the same goes for SCS. We could never have matched Collins salary at Swindon (£4.5k a week) and Neale was no great loss. Which leaves Sharps but only as a leader and, surprisingly, he has been criticised for this on Rotherham forums. The one player with the true class to move up a level was Ainsworth and it is to be regretted that he has a self-destruct wish wherever he goes.
Good post - agree with this completely. I'm beyond tired of people prattling on about how we should have kept this player or that player, without giving a thought to whether the player wanted to stay or whether we could have afforded to beat their other offers. It's an utterly pointless argument, with little or no basis in fact.
