All this talk of who we should keep/let go etc etc, ffsake, we should be offering the entire squad deals. Scannell and max wright deserve a go at L2 as in my opinion they will tear L2 defences a new behind when fit. I really think if we can keep this group of lads together we can have a serious crack at promotion again. L2 will suit our passing style of play. I would personally like to see Smith ,fox,mcatee, Taylor,and jmd sorted with better deals, then Shaun, waterfall,crocombe, abrahams,desi , and the rest being kept. Let's not make the same mistakes as the former regime.

I don't think Hurst does misty eyed sentiment. It would be naive to think the entire squad are capable of pushing us towards a top 7 finish.

I agree to an extent. The team that finished the season was even better than the one that started it so well. This team beat all the front runners and had a comradery not seen for a long time. Of course I would add extra quality where it is most needed, and although football has changed a lot our double promotions of the past kept the same basic team with one or two class additions. I expect though for various reasons there will be some churn, but it is the quality of any incoming players we will get most excited about as we have a great story to sell them, and hopefully, the wages to match.

They also make reference to incremental, small changes - not throwing the baby out with the bathwater!

Wunderbar, any Tenpole Tudor reference gets a tick from me.

when 1878 took over last year they talked at length about their principles & philosophy, and how they wanted the club to be run on high standards. Much was made of their enthusiasm for the community work and attaining B Corp status. Think it would be safe to say that a number of people were dubious about their ideals and some were quite hostile. Others didn't really know either what it meant or why it was thought so important.
I get the distinct impression in the last few days that their ideas and philosophy are starting to make sense to people - the unity of the players and the backroom staff (look at how Scannell is going to be looked after); the way things have improved both on and off the etc.
