Of course it's an easy move for Danny Rowe, and one that suits him.
He doesn't strike me as a natural high-pressing player either, but if in a few weeks we are in eleventh place in the league are we going to stick by the same failing tactics. That's one of the reasons Wrexham missed the play-offs last season.
Now lets say tomorrow we beat Barnet but Quigley gets crocked and is out for a few weeks, Asante and Kabby looks the natural pairing, but you need a forward on the bench. If we were struggling wouldn't you like to see us adding in Danny just behind them using that space to fire in the odd howitzer and available to take you a dead ball? I know I would.
If we don't want to pay Danny his wage we shouldn't have done the deal. If we let every player go where he wants, rather than his contract dictates, Danny will be at Fylde for sure, Loz Maguire will get a new three-year deal with us, Kabby will be off to further his career in the EFL and Dobra will be making eyes at a Championship club. How many of our players do you think would be at Chesterfield as their very top choice if they had their druthers?
We won't ever see Danny Rowe playing for Chesterfield again, even though we spent many, many thousands getting him back to fitness. Morally it is wrong move, in football terms it is short-term thinking and financially it throws the thousands we've spent down the drain, to accommodate a wage bill we seem to be able to afford anyway.
