I’d be interested to know how you’re proposing to pay off all the contracts.
Hopefully, some other mug can take them off our hands. That FA Cup money has been well and truly pīsséd up the wall.

Well quite a large chunk of them are out of contract in June. But as another poster has said, make them all available. Most will be in the last year of their contract so even just sitting on it for a year isn’t going to do their future prospects any good.

You only pay the contracts off if you release a player. The idea is to lean on them to find another club off their own back so they continue with a contract/pay at their next club

A three year contract for Harvey Rodgers is absolutely mind blowing. I would imagine he’s being paid quite well too. Hopefully Hurst can do us a favour and make that mistake again by taking him off our hands but I doubt it.

Theres only the following players in contract come the end of June... Eastwood, Mullarkey, Rodgers, Tharme, Hunt, Vernam, Gardner, Pyke, Rose, Wilson. All the others are out of contract. I would be telling every one of them barring Rose and Gardner that they are free to find another club. Vernam and Tharme would have till the end of the season to prove themselves. This is terrible recruitment considering 15 of our current squad wasnt here last season!

Don’t understand the mullarkey signing, the guy is clearly more focused on building his social media platforms and his personal training business. The sooner we find his replacement the better.

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.
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.
I think the only things I would change is I'd keep Gav and maybe Arthur as a back ups and I wouldn't send Khouri out on loan I'd keep him because before he got this lkng term injury he was looking good.

I don’t understand it either, average NL defender in a mid table side who played a dozen games in a p1ss poor Rochdale side that got relegated to the NL. I’d be interested to see what data told us there.

He wasn't a data signing he was a Hurst signing, he was trying to sign him even before Hutchinson arrived wasn't he. He actually looked good pre season but he's been fairly shite once the real stuff kicked in
