Manager confirms 'homework being done'
Billy Whizz has today revealed that possible transfer targets for the Whizzers next season are already being examined, in a Team of the Season interview, due to be released tomorrow.
The Wonderboys sit 2nd in 5.10 after their 3-2 win over Skills City on Sunday night, and Whizz is eager that the right players are recruited, whatever division the Wonderboys are in next season.
"It certainly isn't easy [planning for Division 4 and Division 5] said Whizz, "but there are some areas that will need improvement regardless"
Midfielder Maurice Meredith has announced his intention to retire at the end of the season, and despite the development of academy product Matthew Hill, Whizz is likely to delve into the transfer market to find a replacement. If the Wonderboys are promoted, they will receive around 35m from their sponsors, and fringe players could be sold to help generate further funds.
"Maurice retiring will definitely leave a whole in our midfield, and there are one or two other positions we are looking at" said the Whizzers boss.
Whizz also hinted that the Wonderboys would look for younger signings if the team were to remain in Division 5, and confirmed he was in regular contact with various clubs to investigate possible acquisitions.
