Pre season

[Matty]

Pre season effectively starts today, we should be looking at options for next season now. Use this early relegation to a slight advantage. Give other players a chance, bench as many wages thieves as possible.

Isn’t that what KH has been doing?
Check out how many players no longer feature.

I do agree with the principle of what you say. (KH should take his holidays early and then get stuck in whilst LT keeps things a-tickin’)

I’m starting to get excited for the first time in ages. I can’t wait to see the retained list – or rather, the non-retained list.

Back to one familiar problem – how to get rid of underachievers who are still contracted?

Let’s hope we don’t offer any snr pro a new contract for those who’s are running out.

Planning is irrelevant if any Swann family member is connected with the club. Get them out, new owners in and then recruitment done by those who know football / could add 500 season tickets and much needed positivity

We’ve “looked at” more players this season than any other club in the league.

And over the whole of the Swann tenure we’ve sent more into oblivion than anyone else too.

Whilst our fabled recruitment committee sit in judgment I’m sure not starting to get excited.

Hiring a skip may be better value for money.

I can’t get my head around 44 players used this season!

A new squad every 11 games!
Which leads you to think relegation was pencilled in some time ago and KH is just looking at as many players as possible to see who to keep.

Swann had no intent of paying the loan back so we were only going one way

I think Kieth should start trying to get his first team sorted out now. Not just the ones that are the best, as some of them won’t be here next season. It’s going to be a rag tag team, but they have to get used to playing together.

Just in case we end up in the same scenario we are in now, which is very likely if not a nailed on certainty. We need some stability.

Do you think that any of these players will be wearing claret & blue this time next season? I very much doubt it.
