gillyno9 Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Not seen anyone mention the salary cap! Is that still a thing in league 1? If so 2.5 million wage bill doesn’t allow us to keep many of the players even if we wanted to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We also had a massive clear out after being relegated from the Premier Division. That was down to 10 out of our first 11 being on contracts that allowed them to leave for free if we were relegated. 20 years later we’re still struggling to recover from those stupid contracts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we just buy run of the mill L1 players, we will have same result as this season. Good luck with that. Without any structure at the club the recruitment will be like it always has been, a mish mash of random players of varying non complimenting attributes being stockpiled for seemingly no reason other than to pi$$ more money away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep that’s it for me, the rest can do one Potentially would see this line up, maybe with Bannan sold but this is probably the best we’d have remaining.

frastheowl Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 I'd keep Hunt, Penney and Urhoghide. These are players we've invested a lot of time and money in. And next season, could be a good opportunity for them to prove themselves in a more settled squad. These players have been mismanaged so far. Playing well, then being benched, and struggling for form when in and out of the side. In League One, with Hunt, Penney and Urhoghide as valuable squad players with specific defined roles, there's nothing to suggest that at least one of those could thrive and end up making the club some money. The rest can go. All them of have proven to be either inept, lazy, cowardly or a catastrophic waste of money. Imagine the amount we could save getting rid of the charlatans. My only disappointment is seeing the personification of our demise, Liam Palmer not on the list.If we start another season with that waste of space at right back, I'm going to give up.
