Cobblers bide time over transfers

However, because of the current economic climate affecting football, Gray is hopeful that players will be more open to a move to Sixfields as the summer progresses as he looks to bring in a centre-half and a striker.Although Northampton have signed forward Steve Guinan and defenders Craig Hinton and Dean Beckwith, the Cobblers boss would like to bolster the squad even further as he seeks instant promotion to League One after being relegated last season."I don't think we've got enough centre-halves yet. In an ideal scenario you'd have two players for every position but that definitely won't be the case this season," Gray told the Northampton Chronicle & Echo."We definitely need another striker and it's all down to what we can afford. I've spoken to two or three players and we can't match the terms they want to come and play here."That's true not just at this football club but at most of them, we might have to look at bringing people in slightly later in the season."
