New Gills faces must be for right reasons, says boss Martin Allen
by Graham Jones
The hunt for new faces at Gillingham is ongoing but boss
Martin Allen isn’t prepared to splash the cash recklessly.
He said: "I have chatted to a lot of agents and clubs and a lot
of potential signings but they have to be better than what we’ve
got.
"We are not just going to go out and get people for the sake of
it. It has to be done for the right reasons and not just chucking
money away.
"You have to remember, we have good players here anyway, so it
is a fine line."
During Saturday’s meeting of shareholders, club chairman Paul
Scally admitted there was interest in former Gills striker Cody
McDonald who is available for loan at current club Coventry.
Allen (pictured) was keeping his transfer targets to
himself.
He said: "I don’t ever want to speculate about potential
signings. If we sign someone, we sign them and then that’s the time
I will talk about them."
