    I didn't even realise we had Ryan McGowan still.

    What a waste of time that Tom Clare 'one for the future' signing was.

    Surprised to see we haven't offered Caddis ought.

    Right calls on them all. I think Devine and Colville are worth another look too. Anderson is clearly impressing GB

    If Devine and Anderson from the core of our Midfield, forget going up.

    Caddis wouldn’t sign a new deal. Mutual decision

    If that's what we start the season with I'm lumping on relegation. What a let down.

    Don't worry, they'll just be backup to Akpan and Wright. What could go wrong....

    I think they have been offered deals so we can get compo if they go elsewhere

    It won’t be. Just because they haven’t been released doesn’t mean they’re going to be the first choice pair in midfield.


    In any case, I think Anderson May be okay in league 2.

    I’m disappointed we’ve released Billy Clarke though.

    So that leaves:

    O'Donnell, Mellor, O'Connor, Wood, Akpan, Wright, Riley, Scannell, Doyle, GSK, Goldthorp, Patrick. Plus the 3 that have been offered deals.

    Priority for me is getting shut of Riley, Wright, Akpan and O'Donnell. There'll be better keepers out there, and we need the wages from the other 3. Scannell will be off too, and most likely Doyle. If we can shift most of those then we'll have a good 10 or so spots in the squad and should have a decent budget to go and strengthen.

    I am pleased Anderson has been given a contract started slow but for a player who has had two cruciate injuries at the age of 22 I think he got better as time went on. It also shows strength of Character. I think he will be a useful part of the Squad

    happy to see all those go.. mcgowan will be a big wage we can claw back. caddis would be a big wage to sit on the bench for 90% of the season. we won’t miss any of those been released, none of them offer anything we can’t get elsewhere.

    Devine will be the option for the one we have to name trained at a club in the matchday squad?

    At least we never have to endure Chicksen or Knight-Percival clusterf*cking their way around the pitch in a City shirt ever again.

    Just what I’ve heard. He won’t sign in league two and also travelling every day. Not enjoying it

    He’s worked hard to impresss Bowyer and is worth a chance. I know we have a hatred for him on here but that’s nothing new.

    I wish more at put the effort in he has to get in the managers plans. Might not be in this mess.

    I think he will as he has apparently just moved into a house that the club rent for players
