Couple of days late, but this is pretty extreme. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/18024194 That surely signals that Westley's position is safe next season come hell or high water. It would be footballing suicide to allow a manager to do that and not let him finish moulding the squad.
Deals agreed with Shrewsbury for Nicky Wroe and Shane Cadsell-Sherriff possibly interested in Mansfield's Matt Green?
Linked with Joel Byrom from Stevenage, he's also wanted by Fleetwood and Morecambe also been offered more money by Fleetwood however looks like we will get him
Any idea were you heard that we was one of the clubs chasing Byrom? If we are I would have thought we would be bottom of the queue as I would have thought he would go to Preston with Westley in charge. Also Preston & Fleetwood would be able to offer him more than us.
If it was the football rumours website take it with a pinch of salt if I was you. They have all our players going onto scottish premier & championship clubs. One stated that Will Haining will go to Bury for £150k, I wish as he was one of our worst players last season. Also had Barry Roche signing for PNE as cover for Stuckmann. After the Vardy sale they have money to splash but their crowds are as not as good as yours which will be the main reason as well as league one football that will make him join PNE. Westley has also worked with him which should point in your direction fully.
Rumours have have it that the Cod are heavily in debt and I have a feeling that when it goes pop they will hurtle backwards through the leagues
It's definitely an interesting time to be a Preston fan. On paper I have to say it looks like you're building a good squad.
