    Henry will be wage dependent. His cameo on Saturday was a fine display, and his chip down the wing to Mellor for the fourth was excellent. Having said that, his leadership and experience must be complimented by first team football, surely, if rumours are to be believed that he's on a high wage. He's only on a two month deal (pending investment?), so it's 50-50 for me...

    Josh Wright will probably go, he's bang out of favour, but easily has the credentials for a move to L1/L2.

    Ellis Hudson has gone to explore other opportunities, or America as we're told - not sure how desperate other youngsters will be to cancel their deals, but if I were City I'd be looking to begin offloading some of the excess fat. Clare, Hawkes, Devine, and Isherwood can all go for me, unless they're playing a vital role at U18 level? Three aren't our kids, and Devine is 21 now - that's a year older than Miller, who is about the right level for a player that age.

    Seedorf's loan is a waste of time, and I believe his deal is up. Bye, lad.

    Jordan Gibson desperately needs first team football, I have my doubts about the lad, so it's put or shut up on loan for me. Even with zero width, Gibson is out of favour. Perhaps his attitude issues continue - if so, happy to release him.

    Very unlikely either Reeves or Jones, but if we can somehow get shut cheap, please do.

    Needless to say, Brunker can go too.

    From recent line ups, I'd guess Josh Wright and Ryan McGowan will be looking for first team football. I would expect Seedorf to go back to Wolves.

    I'd keep him where he is. He's still contracted for how long? The more he does well at Lincoln, the more chance we have of selling him.

    Edin went £1m+ over the agreed budget. That's why we have the biggest budget in 15 years. We've got nearly 50 players on the books and the majority are not fit for the first team.

    Stefan is plugging that so that we don't run out of cash before the end of the season. He's not providing a new windfall of cash to go out and buy players.

    So don't expect any large fee signings.

    I'd send pretty much all the "development" squad out on loan, as they were signed not to play in our first team, but to play regular football and improve. Can't do that if we've not got a dev/reserve squad. Riley, Gibson, Clare, Patrick, Isherwood, Peters - all sent out on loan to play football on a week in week out basis.
    Patrick is actually due to come BACK to us in January. Started 9 times and scored once for Yeovil. I'd suggest we either loan him out again, or get rid. Kai to also go out on loan if we sign a decent target man.

    I think Bruenker and Jones will stay in Jan but can’t see them staying beyond this season.

    Rupp may be putting a million in but this could be out of necessity to keep the club going. In the report on Saturdays match Simon Parker referred to "financial black holes" left by Rahic.

    He was never the player we were missing, if it wasn't for the latest fashionable saying about brexit tackles he would have been shit from the get go. He misses And always has done in his time here if say 60% of his tackles. He flies into them without a clue of what he's doing. There is a reason he was playing in the desert leagues.

    As for the rest Seedorf won't be coming back and I'd ship Wright, Reeves, Gibson, McGowan, Chicksen(won't happen) Brüenker permanently if there is anyone stupid enough to take them. And send Riley and Isherwood out on loan.

    I've not been taken by Karl Henry since he arrived either, his legs look to have gone and seems to have hidden in most minutes he's played. Would be interesting to see if our new number 2 can get him as fit as last season in the next couple of weeks.

    Wright, truly a horrendous player. Total shiverer. How he was given the captaincy was beyond belief. I agree about McGowan. Fantastic when he signed. A bit of a strange turnaround in fortunes for him. Has the injury knocked his confidence?

    Agree, Stefan was never going to give Hopkin a £1m transfer budget for January, it will be to cover the finacial mess Edin got the club into.

    McGowans fall from grace has been pretty spectacular. He went from "the player we're badly missing due to injury" to the player that is now seen as a bit of a liability, and has been benched because of it.
    Wright: I don't think I've ever seen him have a good game.

    If we have to pay up their contracts why bother? May as well keep them just in case we are hit by loads of injuries

    Don't think there will be as many outgoings or incomings as some fans seem to think.

    Out will probably be Wright and a couple of the youngsters like Gibson on loan
