75k doesn't make one bit of difference. Our entire playing structure is founded with Mullin at the cornerstone. Where would we get a replacement for that amount, that would realistically join us? Especially seeing as we can only sign players within a 50 mile radius or southern players from several leagues below. Oh and on top of that we pay peanuts in wages, have crap facilities and a battle against the manager's favourites to get in the side - regardless of ability.
Yeh - sure we can get a quality replacement with 75k.

The only stumbling point is a 2 year contract - f$(%*@$ give it him! We'll get much more than 75k out of him if he plays out his days here through staying in the league. On FACE VALUE - 75k is a good offer, ie for a 33yr old League 2 striker. But he's not just a 33yr old League 2 striker is he? He's a striker, a midfielder, a defender, a model professional, and a beacon for all things good about football still left in the game. He is the perfect player. 75k would be daylight robbery.
