    Yes I aver to your knowledge. Why didn’t you mention that Zeli had another year? ;)

    You knocked Reeves given his Long standing injury, yet he has made more appearances this season than Ismail!

    So that leaves 1 GK, 2 LB, 5 CB, 0 RB, 0 CM, 2 W and 4 ST. I would maybe have kept Reeves & McCartan on but not surprised we've let them 10 go.

    I trust Stuart to build a team capable of challenging promotion, especially with how many clubs will have next to no money in the bank. Will be interesting to see how it all unfolds in the next few months.

    I believe both Donaldson and Zeli would've gone also.

    Zeli has been a poor signing but him and Donaldson should be buying their agent a drink when they see him because Bradford City got done over.

    Reeves was always leaving either way.

    Zeli looks decent, but the fact his season went to the pattern predicted by @wetherbywhaler@wetherbywhaler and his conversation with someone at Walsall tells you everything you need to know.

    Extremely poor value signing.

    Clayton I think is worth keeping, although I'm not sure he 'earned' another season. Hopefully he isn't on huge wages........

    And I was correct at the time, but he did not improve under Bowyer now show us the receipt, that's if you paid up.

    Imagine Lee Catermole & James Vaughan in the same starting 11.

    Because I'm a lazy bugger and can't be bothered looking it up - who is left on the roster?

    You'd think so, if there's a wage cap in place we've got to be in a strong position.

    Small squad, maximum quality, Stuart should be able to attract a good number of talented players, it could be a good season.

    Now we just need Boris to tell us that by September we can start using arenas!

    I think the problem is there may be rules regarding offering new deals that are worse than current ones

    Suprised about GSK. Thought he was meant to have a few top clubs scouting him? Can’t have been on much, and has been with us since a youngster.
    Don’t really care about the others. Will be watching to see where Devine and Gibson end up. Probably at the same club up the road. Let’s see if Riley really is a promising player. Again, interesting to see who takes a punt on him.
    If Rupp doesn’t back Stuart now, looks like we’re going to struggle. Can’t see Vaughan wanting time come back and play with any of the retained.
