for me, the hurry is that (weirdly) the season ended on a bit of a high with the team scoring a few goals in front of a decent crowd. We should have been capitalising on any positive impact that result may have had.
It also gives the club a bit of a feel for what numbers will be like, which, in turn, gives an idea of what the summer budget might be like. An extra 500 (say) could go quite a way to bringing in another player (or keeping one we want to stay with us).
I also think the beginning of the month is when folk have a pound in their pocket and might be tempted to buy one.
You're ok with the way we dither with these things?
