Which of our players would you keep? For me from the first team squad it's pinnock, Jackson, lindsay, hammill, isgrove, potts, hedges, moore, thiam. The rest I don't think are capable of making the grade for a league 1 promotion push and even some of those I listed I'm not so sure about
Davies- Keep, good goalkeeper on form. Good L1 keeper Townsend- Rid, need to bring one GK at least this summer McCarthy- Keep, especially as I think Yiadom will go Mills- Probably get rid, just no need Lindsay- Keep Jackson- Keep Pinnock- Keep Pearson- Keep Cavare- Tough call, I like him but does he have the desire to play L1? Pinillos- Not sure yet, probably keep Fryers- Not sure yet, probably keep Yiadom- Would keep but he will go for sure Williams- He won't be here next season Hammill- I would keep but we will see what the manager thinks Moncur- Tough call, I would say keep but it hasn't been a great season for him Potts- Keep Mahoney- He won't be here next season Mallan- Keep Knasmullner- Keep Isgrove- Keep Gardner- He won't be here next season Hedges- Another tough call, very hit and miss. Undecided McBurnie- I wish Bradshaw- Good L1 player but do we want to keep? I'm not sure. Depends if we can bring another striker in Thiam- Keep Moore- Keep On Loan: Mowatt- Rid McGeehan- Keep, not sure why he was loaned out even Mottley-Henry- Keep for future Brown- Keep for future Bird- Keep for future Walton- Keep for future Tuton- Rid On the whole- I put keeping most. We have a very good L1 squad at present time so don't think I major over-haul would be needed
Depends entirely on what level are shopping at, if we are not bringing anyone better in I'd keep them all.
If we went down, I'd be building a side around having Moore and Bradshaw up front with Isgrove and Hammill (plus Hedges) on the wing. All have what it takes to score and create in League 1. The defence would be sound with the choice of centre backs. Centre midfield would need a tough tackling player, which is what we've lacked all season, plus one other. Choose from the multitude. It wouldn't take alot to have a decent side. Sadly Jose seems to think that good wingers and 2 up front is not an option.
I am setting my expectations that way, yeah... As much as I do want to stay up. Will be a dogfight between us and Birmingham at this point. 50/50 chance
Davies- Keep, back-up only Townsend- Rid, need to bring one GK at least this summer McCarthy- Keep, especially as I think Yiadom will go Mills- Keep, bit of experience Lindsay- Open to offers, not physical enough Jackson- Open to offers, not physical enough Pinnock- Keep Pearson- Keep Cavare- Keep Pinillos- Get rid Fryers- Not sure yet, probably keep Yiadom- Would love to keep Williams- Not ours, no chnace of signing in L1 Hammill- I would keep Moncur- Free transfer Potts- Keep Mahoney- not seen owt from him, not ours anyways Mallan- Keep Knasmullner- Keep Isgrove- Keep Gardner- Good riddance Hedges- Unibond Premier? McBurnie- Norfolk N Chance Bradshaw- Should do well in L1, but last year of contract so maybe cash in if any one wants him Thiam- I don't comment on Mamdou Thiam Moore- Keep On Loan: Mowatt- See Moncur McGeehan- a pre-season may see him being a good player. Mottley-Henry- Keep for future Brown- Keep for future Bird- Release Walton- Keep for future Tuton- Rid Glaringly obvious we will need a new keeper and a a Scowen/Morsy type midfielder...
I have a feeling it might be a three way fight between us, Brum and Reading for the third relegation spot. It's just a case of who wants it the most
Just watching Donny v Bradford , little quality , little crowd . Hope we can get enough points to stay up

I wouldn’t be surprised to learn that the likes of Knasmüllner, Pinillos and Cavaré have a release clause written into their respective contracts. I can’t see any of them playing in League 1 whether we’d like them to or not.
Keep:- Davies Yiadom (no chance) Jackson Lindsay Pinnock Hammill Knasmuellner Moore McBurnie (no chance) Maybe:- McGeehan The rest can all gladly do one for mine and I'll personally drive Moncur to which ever Conference South side wants him.
Impossible to make a call because I would keep A TEAM and not individual players (loanees excepted). That assumes positive momentum is built towards the end of the season, or it'd be starting from scratch for me and maybe with a different manager. As Balotelli said in interview this week, "Money doesn't give you a team, it allows you to buy great players, but not a team" (wise words for a player that doesn't understand the offside rule ). I agree with Nudge's view on other threads, in that we have the players but not the team right now.
