I think we will just starve off relegation this season, as I think there will be two worse teams (We HAVE to beat Donny, Forest Green and Sutton).
But looking at the list of players, its absoultely frightenning the amount of players I would let go, or look to offload at the end of the season.

I think thats a big task for any manager and I think the owners need to get in their minds now, that the close season may cost them more money than they envisaged!

Is this the worst squad we've seen from Town in the last ten years? - Potentially is.

Goalkeepers              
Harvey Cartwright - Think gets unfair critistim. Kept us in games and most goals havent been his fault. Would sign as backup.
Jake Eastwood - Not good enough. Offload.
                     
Defenders              
Danny Amos - Not good enough. Offload.
Michee Efete - Not good enough. Offload.
Anthony Glennon - Defensively very poor and a massive portion of goals conceeded have come down his side. Offload.
Niall Maher - Should only be kept as backup.
Toby Mullarkey - Defensively very poor and a massive portion of goals conceeded have come down his side. Offload.
Harvey Rodgers - One of the worst defenders I've seen.
Doug Tharme - Too early to judge.
                     
Midfielders              
Callum Ainley - No comment except get well soon.
Jamie Andrews - Goes absent in games too many times. Don't attempt to sign.
Aaron Braithwaite - No comment
Jamie Bramwell - No comment
Harry Clifton - Not the same player as last couple of seasons. Unfortunatley it was maybe time for him to move on last summer when we had 'rumoured' interest.
Kieran Green - Not good enough. Offload.
Gavan Holohan - Unfortunatley offload at the end of the season. Been a good player but now becoming to inconsistant.
Alex Hunt - Not good enough. Offload.
Otis Khan - Not good enough. Let contract run out.
Evan Khouri - Needs a 6 month loan to see how he gets on.
Charles Vernam - He needs to prove what he can offer towards end of the season.
Harry Wood - To early to assess, but IF it was just based on yesterday, i would'nt attempt to sign.
Arthur Gnahoua - Not good enough. Offload.
                     
Forwards                    
Abo Eisa - Offer a new 1 year contact, but needs to be more consistant.
Edwin Essel - No comment, but assume he will be released.
Cameron Gardner - No comment, but I dont see him breaking into the team this season.
Justin Obikwu - Too early to judge.
Rekeil Pyke - Hardly available. Offload.
Danny Rose - Keep. The only shining light of a poor season.
Harvey Tomlinson - No comment, but assume he will be released.
Donovan Wilson - Hardly available. Offload.

It would’ve been quicker to say you’d release everyone but Rose

Other than keeping Eisa I don’t disagree with any of that but the ā€œoff loadsā€ will only be the players out of contract or returned loans I would imagine.

Of the players out of contract I’d work hard to keep Clifton. That’s not based on ā€œone of our own biasā€ but the fact that played in the same role for a few games on the bang with a few better players around him he’s got something to offer. The rest can do one.

It's no good replacing anybody unless they are an upgrade.

We need experience and pace and some players who will motivate others when things go wrong.

Tharme yesterday did nothing to suggest he has got any of the qualities we need at the back - he looked far too lightweight and the Hull loanee ditto.

I so want Artell to succeed as some of the football played has been sublime, but if we can only sign mediocre players I hope we can struggle on with what we have got till the summer when we have more budget.

Some things we can do with the existing squad to help grind out results - Amos and Glennon on the left together, Harry at right back and get Holohan and Vernam in the side.

I’ll ask the question again, what have you seen in Clifton to suggest he’d be a good defensive right back?

Also how confident would you be that Glennon can double up with Amos to prevent opponents getting crosses in, I wouldn’t be, though that said anyone is better than Eisa when it comes to that part of the game as he’s a lazy sod.

I’d be interested to know how you’re proposing to pay off all the contracts.
