Hythe Town boss Clive Cook gives transfer targets until Friday to accept or reject his offers for next season
00:00, 22 June 2016
Players only have two more days to accept Clive Cook’s offer of a deal at Hythe Town.
The manager has set a Friday deadline for transfer talks which have rumbled on for most of the summer.
Cook signed five players back in May and is happy with his squad but remains hopeful of making further quality additions.
He said: "I’ve got until Friday and if nothing is achieved in that time, I would say pre-season has been pretty good.
"Other clubs will bring players in and then let them go. One or two of them might tick my boxes.
"But if I don’t get across the line who I want by Friday, if it doesn’t happen, I’ll go with exactly what I’ve got. I’m not messing around next week.
"Some of the players have been given another offer, are playing at a higher level or potentially will be in the mix for the Ryman South promotion. It’s about seeing whether it fits for them.
"The money is ridiculous, what’s going on out there. If I told you the truth, you’d laugh."
