No, that's not the way it works at Plymouth these days. The way it works is eg:
- Complain that you've got no centre halfs, then loan your best centre half to Blackpool, and watch him score againt you (Marcel Siep).
- Complain that you can't score goals, then loan out your Centre Forward to MK Dons, and watch his 10 goals already this season take them to the top of the league (Jermaine Easter).
- etc, etc, etc
When I say Sturrock is a sick man and making some strange decisions, maybe the above examples will help you to understand what I'm saying.
Even if he did sign the Beachball, I doubt whether he'd bother to play it
