I forgot about harte the lad has not really been given an opportunity without actually doing anything wrong for the 2nds.
It would appear to me that even with the salary restrictions imposed on Durham they must have a fair bit of scope to sign and still be comfortable inside the budget.
I think so, they must be well under the cap. Trouble might be in finding players who are both good enough and willing to sign - the best ones who might be on the move are likely to have better options. It's why I'm still in two minds over Onions - can they be confident of using the money to bring in the right replacement?
Wood might be the next one to give the club a tricky choice to make - he'll be very lucky if his central contract is renewed.
