Myself, Bushy, Yeovil, there must be loads of us with dogs.

Bushey hasn't a dog, its a rat. |

Unlike most I don't see him going as inevitable. I am under the impression that he has ambition, but is also very happy with us. With us he is a bid fish in a small pond, & gets regular football. He no doubt remembers that he was warming the bench at a so called bigger club. I also think that if nothging happens he will sign a new extended contract (with a release clause in it)
So, IMHO the follwoing criteria will apply:
Any club interested will have to be able to stump up 2 - 2.5 million to get permission to speak with him.
AF has proved he is very good at selling Swindon & our ambition. He is no doubt saying to Cox, that he could move to the championship with us.
He will have to be moving up a league at least. to a club on the up. (ie top half of the Championship or lower premier)
He will have to be convinced that he will be getting regular football. (Rules some clubs out who could afford him.).

A quote from this months 442
"I'd love to play as high as i possibly can... blah de blah... but i'm also happy where i am....blah de blah.... if a team from the premier league comes in for me then i'd love to give it a go. We'll just have to wait and see"

I heard he lost his game of rock, scissors, paper with Fitton and has to stay.

It's a flawless method. |

All the new signings we make can only improve the chances of him staying, if he thinks we could challenge for promotion. Playing week in week out in a successful team, albeit at a lower level, must be enticing. Whether he rates Wilson as a manager will probably make a big difference as well.
I reckon he'll stay, sign a two year extension with a reasonable release clause and a nice pay rise - everyone's a winner. Though if we get Theo Robinson from Watford I won't be too bothered if Cox goes.

Where is all the money coming from for backroom staff, poaching youth players and potentially Theo Robinson?
Either Fitton has won the rock, scissor, paper world championship and is using his prize money wisely or a deal for Cox is already done.

....or maybe (unlikely) he's pulled some strings and got the boys to dig deeper and ensure a better season?

Fitton & co have always come up with the cash when they needed to. Maybe they are just putting some more money in and spending it wisely rather than pissing it away on expensive has beens.

What's it going to cost long term though? Fitton wants us to be self sustaining, Cox on bigger wages, buying players for six figure sums and extra money for youngsters doesn't really hold true.
I'd love it if the owners are digging deeper though, but I just can't see it.

I think he's trying to say they've already sold Cox and are spending the money.
Or that Fitton has won the world rock, paper, scissors tournament.

If thats the case then we are self sustaining. We paid for cox and any profit will go back into the club and hopefully get a few players who are hopefully going to improve us and in the long run make us some cash.
