Don’t need another striker. The 3 you mentioned are fine for that level and Harrison Poulter needs a chance to be ‘in and around.’ Too many and it breeds dissatisfaction. If Wilson and Beeston don’t move on then we have all the cover we need. Creativity in midfield is needed … Butterfield and another … two if he goes.

Scunthorpe United can provide an update on the following players:
– We can confirm the club has rejected an offer from a Championship side for goalkeeper Owen Foster. The 18-year-old has made 13 senior appearances for United so far and scouts from numerous clubs have been to watch the highly-rated shotstopper.
– Attacker Cameron Wilson has rejected the contract offer made to him by the club this summer and will be moving on. We wish him well for the future.
– Tom Pugh has signed a new one-year contract with the option of a further year in the club’s favour. The 22-year-old midfielder has made a total of 65 appearances so far in claret and blue, after successfully coming through our academy system. Fellow midfielder Dean Rance has verbally agreed terms on a new contract and is expected to sign in due course.
– Midfielder Harry Lewis has had his contract terminated by mutual consent. The 19-year-old made a total of 11 senior appearances for the Iron and went out on loan to Gainsborough Trinity and Boston United last season. We wish him well for his future career.
– Academy trainees Harrison Poulter, Josh Robertson and Nathaniel Wallace have all signed their first ever professional contracts with the club. All three appeared for the first team at stages last season. Tyrell Sellars-Fleming has been offered a professional contract but given more time to consider his future following a trial at Championship side Blackburn Rovers. In addition to Owen Foster, that means five of this year’s academy second year intake have been offered professional contracts. We wish departing scholars Charley Strouther, Harry Elliott-Bell and Ben Pike all the best with their futures.
– We can confirm player of the season winner Reagan Ogle hasn’t expressed any desire to leave the Iron and is a big part of manager Jimmy Dean’s plans for the 2023-24 season.
– Midfielder Jacob Butterfield has expressed a desire to play at a higher level and has been made available for transfer, while striker Marcus Carver has also been made available for transfer. This information has been circulated to other clubs.

Good to see improved communication from the club with the latest statements; doesn’t take much.
Ogle potentially staying will be a big plus.

Certainly not a secret society like other seasons

Don’t forget with ogle he was 3rd choice at Hartlepool, maybe he knows he’s better off here where he’s won over the fans than chasing something else and being a bit part player, shame the likes of Hayesy didn’t do the same.

Butterfield we expected to go. Carver wasn’t good enough anyway so expect another striker to come in. Wilson going was kind of expected, he showed enough promise for other clubs to show an interest. Wilson attitude towards the end was shocking so not too bothered.
Foster will end up going regardless but waiting for what is deemed as acceptable bid. Quite a few clubs have been watching him so there will be suitors for him. Ogle staying is definitely a positive.
Nice to know we’re not keeping deadwood here with Carver getting put up for transfer.
Encouraging 3 of the 4 youngsters have signed up. Nothing out of the ordinary in terms of players going and staying, all we need to do is just add 1 right winger to the list of players we need.
Refreshing we’ve been kept in the loop for a change.
I think some have a feeling, and Hayes cares and cared for the club, but ultimately they need to look after themselves first. Who can blame then when the job is more finite than others and it’s not the most secure?
