MallorcaOwl Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Ten players could leave Sheffield Wednesday at the end of their contracts – Cameron Dawson, Ash Baker, Morgan Fox, Kieran Lee, Joey Pelupessy, Sam Hutchinson, Sam Winnall, Atdhe Nuhiu, Fernando Forestieri, Steven Fletcher. Due to the uncertainty about when the season will re-start or not, there could be a legal minefield if the season re- started after the contracts expired.

Dawson signed a 4 year deal so he won't be going anywhere. I don't think an enforced clear out would do us any harm anyway after the shower we've witnessed this season.

Stoop Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Disappointed that Rhodes isn’t up either. Then we could have completely cleared out the expensive wasters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoop Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Hopefully only Fox and Fletcher will be offered new deals. Bad news for Adthe that he can’t put his usual post Easter shift in to get a new contract 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danish Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Hope we keep Fox and Fletcher. The rest can leave for me. Thank you Kieran Lee, true professional and at his best, a wonderful footballer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you Kieran Lee, true professional and at his best, a wonderful footballer. I really like Fletcher. Good player always puts in 100%. But he is injured a fair bit and is not getting any younger. If he's on 30k a week I wouldn't want to be offering him that. Plus he will want 2 years minimum. I just think we need to go younger and cheaper. Fox is ok and has been a solid player. As long as he wants sensible wages I'd offer him 2 years. But if he starts getting greedy let him go...hes not exactly irreplaceable.

Guest The Horse Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Please don't take my Fessi away!! Seriously though, I know we need a clear out and Monk wants to uproot the deep seated culture of failure but Wednesday have always had the flair players that the Blunts never really had. In my time: Dalian Atkinson Di Canio Waddle Carbone JJ Royston Drenthe Forestieri And Dave Bennett They've had Franz Carr. But I digress. I like how Monk's doing the weeding at the moment but I hope we get some excitement in the team or we get another purple patch of years out of FF. The kind of players that get you on the edge of the seat when they have the ball and do things / score the type of goals that get shown again decades later.

Not quite sure about the reference to a “ legal minefield “ - reading the article - see link below - it appears clear to me that, if out of contract players don’t want to play for SWFC after 30 June, there’s a lot that we can do about it. I’d be disappointed if we’ve seen the last of Fox and Fletcher, wouldn’t lose too much sleep about any of the others though. I do hope Kieran Lee gets a contract somewhere, possibly have to drop down a division though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0114 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 We would have 14 first team players registered if no contracts are renewed and loans end. Leaves us with this through July. Going to be a mess especially in the lower leagues.

MrEdwards Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Most of them clearly need to go. However it's pointless saying this one or that one can go - it's all about who we sign in there place. It's all well and good saying Lee or Fox can go - we do need improvement in their positions, but I don't think we'll get it. Hopefully we can do the kind of business we were doing under Bruce. Iorfa Börner and Harris I think were good additions for like 100,000 outlay. But having seen our January business I fear the worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westwood Dawson Wildsmith Palmer Odubajo Iorfa Lees Borner Van Aken Harris Luongo Bannan Reach Rhodes One of which is transfer listed,(Moses), one currently out in loan (where they have the same issues) so likely to stay there. Luongo often injured, so in all likelihood we won't be able to Field a team as of 1july.... must be the same for a lot of clubs Just void the season, transfer window 1 July to 30 September and look to start the new season on 1 October Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pazowl55 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 (edited) A couple of months ago I was desperate for us to retain Fletcher and Fox, and in a way I suppose I do still hope they sign. But with what is going on now there will be some very good players available that will probably accept alot less of a wage.
