Grays manager Mark Stimson has said that hopes of strengthening the squad may be dashed due to the budget restraints at the club.
Grays, once thought to be big spenders, are operating on a £8,000 weekly budget according to their Chairman, and manager Stimson isn't going to break that: "I would love to get two or three in but we know the financial structure of the club, and we are not going to put the club in any silly position."
