Hopefully Pilks can put in a good work and win him over, I'd love it if that's how we convince him to sign. On another note, how about Matt Ritchie from Swindon. Supposed to be one of the best crossers of the ball below the championship, and 10 goals in 41 appearances is pretty handy too. Only 22, and his wikipedia page has got a quote from the Dagenham manager saying he hasn't got an ego and enjoys training,etc, so he would seem to be a Lambert type of player.
Or the £1m will be put towards Jimmy Bullard's salary. I didn't look at the lower league teams results in the cup today - how did 1p5wich do today?
It should make a dent in the compensation you will have to pay Jewell when his contract is terminated tomorrow
