Re: The Released Players Thread

He's incredibly lucky they've offered him a new deal even at that level.

Re: The Released Players Thread

Thanks for collating these.

Nobody there I'd want us to go for really.

I think we might do things a bit earlier with Strevs. The fact he directly addressed Robinson leaving, rather than pretend it isn't happening until June 30th, gives me hope that he wants to be more transparent.

Re: Contracted players

If Balanta last year is an option in our favour that's a real touch. He has to be shown the door unfortunately. His body is finished.

Re: Sarfend away

I suppose like a lot of these things there's a balance here. Firstly I don't think screaming at players how shit they are is really on. Booing when we're bad is fair enough and the inconsistency of our season does point to a lack of application which people are right to be angry about. But there's w...

Re: Contracted players

That is a very fair point. But note how we originally announced Rance had left the club by mutual consent and he signed for Scunthorpe the next day. Wouldn't be surprised if we were daft enough to pay him off first.

Re: Contracted players

The new contract injury clauses will only apply to new contracts signed after this season (from 1 July onwards I think?). Many other clubs have stated they will not be making use of it too, which may see us lose out on signings if we don't follow suit. Personally I think Ling and Manny are both good...

Re: Contracted players

Players under contract until 2024 I believe as follows: Balanta Johnson Effiong Onariase Phipps Justham Mussa Longe King Tavares We also have a 1 year option on Ibie. I am almost certain we'll look to find new homes for Balanta and Mussa. I think he'll definitely look to keep Hare and Ling, and poss...

Re: Sarfend away

Balanta can't get above a walk for fear of his hamstrings going. I can't see him being a conference player next season. His body just can't do it.

Be surprised if Strevs keeps more than about 8 of the entire squad.

Re: Chesterfield

Quite flat from us but very difficult to disrupt their possession with Balanta, Weston, and a seemingly half fit Ibie in the side. Saunders was no improvement when he came on either. Chesterfield didn't do a lot with the ball and I felt were fortunate to go ahead. We then lost our way a bit and coug...

Re: That's More Like It

The only player we've sold who might be in the team is Walker and he went up two divisions. Effiong is better than McCallum and Morias is injured as mentioned. Rance, well, when a half fit centre back can do the defensive midfield job twice as well then it tells you everything about how good he was....

Re: Season over then

It is so galling how we've yet again collapsed with a sniff of the top 7. You won't hope for 2 easier games on paper, 6 points takes you within 2 of the playoffs, instead we're now looking at a bottom half finish. I am not surprised as I really don't think we're a good side and it wouldn't matter an...

Re: Torquay Away

Torquay are absolutely doomed if they're losing that game. Won't have a better chance to win all season. Very poor performance from us but I suppose you have to admire the ability to stay alive in the game and then take the chances that fell our way. We do look a bit lost with 2 in the midfield agai...

Re: Wrexham (H) Thread

Not really having how superb they were. Loads of teams have made it awkward for them this season, we just roll over. They are sharp and fit and relentless, but that should be the bare minimum regardless of footballing ability. The goals they scored were routine stuff. We just didn't compete with the...
