We don't just lose out on players because of money. We lose out on players because they don't want to come down to Plymouth and be away from football hotbeds.
Is it any wonder that our best players of years past have been from abroad whereby the geography is not quite so telling on a map. Friio, Larrieu, Buzaky, Halmosi, Carey... after which we have the journeymen players that are better than their history proclaims but soon move on when others come calling BWP, Ebanks-Blake etc.
That's one of the reasons that DAs time should have been better soent chasing likely transfers instead of the waste of time tour of Holland.
