Histon chairman Gareth Baldwin has said he is keen to make extra transfer resources available for next season.

With the current campaign drawing to a close, the club are already planning their summer recruitment.

"We're obviously looking to try and get more money to spend on our playing budgets," Baldwin said.

"This year we have tripled our turnover, being in the Blue Square Premier has meant that we've three times the level of income."

However, Baldwin added that securing extra cash would be far from a formality and that he would be unwilling to gamble with the future of the club.

He told BBC Radio Cambridgeshire: "We are totally dependant on the Football Conference and how they set our annual playing budget.

"We are quite frugal. I don't want to attract players because we are paying the most money and that may sound absolutely naive, but at the end of the day the whole package has to be right."

People can see the facilities improving, they can see the crowds aren't awful, we might be a little bit more attractive to them. Histon chairman Gareth Baldwin

As in previous seasons assistant manager John Beck has already been assessing potential targets with the club keen to get new players in place well before the start of the new campaign.

Baldwin said: "It's our intention that by the second week of May we have spoken to all of our targets."

Histon plan to remain part-time for the foreseeable future, limiting their scope in terms of recruiting new talent, and Baldwin has admitted he doesn't know exactly how things will pan out.

"We've been given permission by two clubs already to talk to players, some of those are at League clubs and they're out on loan at non-League clubs," he added.

"What we've got this year is a track record. People can see the facilities improving, they can see the crowds aren't awful, we might be a little bit more attractive to them."
