Going to say the job centre will be busy next June but more likely some to signing for the state pension next summer

Another 2 years of mykolenko great news on a Sunday morning

 

[kiss the crest]

the contracts expiring next summer Gana as back up for 1 more season, the rest get shut

we hold onto bang average players for far too long, simply just not good enough

Having Gana as backup is an interesting idea but when the legs are gone...theyre gone.

Great to be getting rid of some dead wood in the summer, but concerning that 6 of the starting XI yesterday contracts expire in June. DCL is getting stick and being questioned about his commitment to the club so there must be a similar feeling about the others starting games that are in the same situation.

Without turning this into the transfer thread...i would expect TFG and Thelwell would be able to vastly upgrade the 6.

Young
Mangala
Gana
Lindstrom
Doucoure
DCL

Would be hopeful that they would but just on our transfer history over the last decade I would expect us to somehow bring in at least 4 downgrades and give Young another 12 months. We live in hope we`ll get it right.

All about the upfront cash payments rather than PSR I think.

Just hope the wheels start to turn in Jan.

Tie down Garner, Branthwaite and Pickford to long term deals.

Would also be looking at Gana, Tarks, and yes Yong for short term extensions.

Coleman to the coaching staff.

Extend Gana. Sign Lindstrom. See if Virginia happy to stay. The rest can go. I would have looked to sign Mangala prior to the injury,

We have a further years option with Branthwaite as well don’t we?

That would leave us with 14. So needing around 8-10 incomings between now and summer (with a few youth players like Armstrong and Dixon making up the rest). Alcaraz is likely 1.

 

[formerly manx toffee]

I would extend Young one year. Has done ok this season to be fair. It will be tough getting 8-10 in. Four loans I guess.

I would also extend Begovic a year
