Can we talk about contracts now?

I do wonder about Woolford too. Has been below par a lot of the season, and not in the squad for a lot of the season too...but am I right in thinking he’d barely played for 2 seasons before Slade just chucked him in?

Maybe along with the position and formation change, we’re starting to see a quality player who has done the business in higher leagues  finally reach full fitness and get his mojo back.

Suspect it may be too little too late though.

Oh yeah, of course - totally forgot about him in my slightly fragile state after a night of celebrations haha.

There's certainly a striker in hooper somewhere, under the right manager he could be useful

Under the present manager he is useful!

I've been a big critic of Woolford since he came but have changed my view since Jolley took over. Russell " spit " Slade used him as a winger, which is a role a believe he has played most of his career. He doesn't have the pace to play that role anymore but his experience and ability comes into play in the role that Jolley has given him. I don't know if he is worth another season but if Jolley re-signed him then I wouldn't be disappointed.

I think if they’re ok with not being regular starters then we could do a lot worse than having a Woolford/Clarke/Collins/Davies on the bench ready to see a game out, or breathing down the necks of some more younger talent on the pitch to keep them on their toes.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Summerfield went to Macclesfield

I Agree, I thought Woolford was still signed for next season but clearly not. In the last few games he has shown that he is a decent footballer when playing a more central role. I think that MJ will look to bring the average age of the squad down so doubt he'll get a deal .

Strikers are born not made.

Heard last night that Macca is away to Motherwell, and that Shaun Pearson may be returning. This is from a guy who told my brother on the friday night before the Blackpool game that Bignot was being sacked and Slade coming back, so he has form for being correct.

I'm sure there will be plenty of rumours doing the rounds now we can all breathe a sigh of relief an concentrate on next season.

The truth is no-one has a clue about the budget. If Fenty ups the budget significantly then we'll be looking for a higher class of player than we've got at the moment.

We could always use the budget better and not sign a shed load of mediocre players who drain the budget. Accrington and Wycombe being examples of clubs that make the most of their money.
