Bailey Posted 7 September, 2009 Share Posted 7 September, 2009 Would that be a transfer record for a non-league player? I think you could be right. George Boyd cost Peterborough 250K when he signed from Stevenage, and that was a record at the time. Not sure if that's been broken since though.

krissyboy31 Posted 7 September, 2009 Share Posted 7 September, 2009 I'm sure I read a quote attributed to AP, who said we tried to sign of conference player but it fell through. I thought at the time it was possibly Craddock and therefore this is probably true. As said above, we may go back in January unless of course, there is some reason (possibly medical) that we pulled out of the deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont know why it failed .Could it be that the gregorz bid was held up and so thye pulled out of the deal as it did not give them a chance ot get a replacement in time???

A nice lump sum of say £200k followed by another £500k in January would be very appealing to any team in our league let alone the conference.

saint_ben Posted 7 September, 2009 Share Posted 7 September, 2009 mark paul was a striker that dave jones brought back in the 1998-99 summer from kings lynn!

They are not now in admin and we also do not know why the deal fell through. Luton are pushing for promotion back into the league and so may just think that keeping the forward may be the difference.As i said i dont know why it didnt come off.
