I'd say we're the winners because we've got Gaffney, Gillingham are runners up because they've off-loaded Williamson, and Cambridge are a basket case.

Interesting that now cambridge have got their target. williamson from gills for undisclosed. i guess out of all this gillingham might be seen as the financial winners and us the financial losers while cambridge sit on evens in the middle. a short while ago I guess cambridge were to get Williamson on a free while we get Gaffney on similar deal. rory messes up by scoring a hatful, cambridge squeeze us for cash and down the line gillingham take said cash from cambridge for Williamson. final upshot is both league 2 teams get their man. Gillingham get unexpected windfall, cambridge break even and we are left, relatively, out of pocket. such is life now lets see, over the remains of the season, who are the main beneficiaries regarding the 2 strikers... We've had two home attendances in excess of 9,000 since he arrived, we might not have had if not for the goals he scored that improved our position in the league and made us more attractive to watch. Those two excess attendances have probably paid for most of what we paid for him and if we maintain our position in the league or further improve it who knows how much more income we might benefit from as a result of his arrival.

Hmmm, Cambridge signed a player without disclosing the fee paid to Gillingham did they. Cue outraged indignation.
