Surely if we offer 12 players new deals, 3 leave and we keep 9 we'll have kept the nucleus of the team, which everyone agrees we should do? Nucleus doesn't mean all 12.

So you'd rather keep Pittman than Pearson, Mackreth than Magnay? Get real!

That's the tricky thing about football - your best players tend to be wanted by other clubs.

If they can earn more by moving on, we can't really complain too much. Thing to do is make sure (or at very least) hope that we can find some good replacements for any departees.

Look there are plenty of other players out there. If everyone but Pearson, Magnay and another signs then Hurst will only have to sign 6 or 7 players. A centre half, a right back, a central midfielder, a winger and 2 strikers. Plus the position of the other player who is leaving.

Really like Pearson for us at this level but if he moves to Barnsley I think jumping 2 levels would be to much for him,good luck if he goes though a decent kid

So a settled squad counts for nothing.. Hope you're ready for another slow start as we yet again take a while to gel and wait for a benefactor to prop up the budget. I've never been Paul Hursts biggest fan but I feel for him tonight.

A lot of our players are well over rated imo
I cant think of one player which isn't replaceable. One of our best players, the captain, has already signed.
I'd be surprised if LJL moved on. He's just starting to get recognition for his work, mainly due to a decent return of goals. Its taken him a long time to get to this stage and a lot of patience from PH, i'll be amazed if a higher club comes in and decides to give him better money.

The way people go on about it on here, you'd have thought we'd just romped the title with a Barca-esque team.
Ultimately we weren't good enough last season so we need improvements


Christ you all wanted him sacked a few months ago. 6th place finish and he's now the messiah and can do no wrong  
Update:  I think I've got this right - He was the messiah. He then wasn't. He then was again. Then it turned out he actually wasnt. He turned into one big huge messiah again. Now he's not actually the messiah we thought he was . Now I'm hoping he rises again quickly

We can also hope, if he signs, Toto will be less careless next season and whoever is next to him, maybe Gowling we could still be extremely solid at the back. As good as Magnay is or was now, full back is not the most important position on the pitch but unfortunately Shaun's position is one of the most pivotal.

Sevilla have just won the Europa cup again despite losing half their side last summer, and the summer before that as well.so it happens throughout the football world and doesn't mean next season is not going to be successful.southampton is another example

To be fair to GTFC, if Pearson gets offered a great contract by a team two leagues above us, then there's not much the club can do to match that. Stick with it.


Up The Mariners!
