Since Josh Stones has been a full time professional in men's football, he has scored precisely the same number of EFL goals as Joe Quigley has in the same period. Zero. And roughly half the number of goals that Quigley has, in the same period, in NL.

Last season they both ended up mainly co.ing off the bench for teams who failed to get promoted from the NL.

I'm not convinced that there's that much difference in their respective records over the last few years.

Sometimes a bird in the hand is better value than a reputed quarter of a million in the bush.
