Scott Pollock is definitely on our radar


Maybe I'm being a bit too Machiavellian here, but if this is true, then I find it very interesting that pearson (on our coaching staff) has gone there on loan. Will be working and playing alongside Pollock almost every day; absolutely perfect for giving Hurst N Doig the complete lowdown on him

If Hopper is right, wonder if he was a suggestion from the new scout?

Be a good connection if there is one.

Hopper really is a League 1 player and he'd be a proper decent signing. Exactly the sort of player we are missing without Taylor. A real focal point.

The only reason I could see this as a possibility is, he knows he will play and he's fairly local.

A bit like what Trent and Hendo are doing with Bellingham?

Like someone said earlier though it will be down to money at the end of the day whether he is based in Lincoln or Exeter.  Nobody is going to forgo an extra £1000 a week if they can get it.

Enquiring is one thing  but whether we are prepared tp pay him what he is worth is open to debate.

Jase was very clear in his interview. Money is there, but we will not break the wage structure for one striker because it upsets the squad harmony and makes future negotiations an absolute nightmare.

Everyone knows a striker demands higher wages than a full back - it is what it is.

That's very clear to me too in that we won't be getting our first choice striker anytime soon!

Strikers cost money and if we don't pay it they won't be coming.

Are you thinking he's got a range of tactics - subliminal messaging maybe?  Pollock opens his locker and there's a town shirt in there, Pearson comes over and says 'sorry mate, no idea how that got in there!'.  Hops in his car to go home and the sat nav is set to DN35....that sort of thing?
