I'm certainly not as high on Browne as others. Would argue that 'club legend' and 'favourite ever PNE player' are wildly overrating him, but fact remains he's been a very decent player and very consistent for the last couple of seasons.
It's huge for our summer that we re-sign him. Otherwise a large chunk of our very limited budget will need to be spent replacing him.
With Millar going back, losing Browne on a free would mean spending significant money just to be at the level of squad we've had this year. Any notion of 'improving' the squad would be way off
