Quoted from barrattstandman
It all depends who of the better players are prepared to accept playing in the National League. Not many I would think as there will probably be offers of league football for most of those better ones .
It's a sad fact but who would you choose out of Grimsby in non league or shall we say Morcombe or Harrogate ? It's a no brainer for a footballer


This,

PH will have to take a few gambles on who he feels can make it from the “rough diamonds” etc., those who can play higher but are unproven or our of favour, like Nolan was (if I recall correctly)

The starting point for me is those under a contract who are:-
Macca
Waterfall
Morais
Rose
Williams
Wright
Gibson
Ira Jackson
LJL
Scannell

So those I would want would be Macca, LJL, and possibly Morais ( depending upon yesterdays debacle) to give some experience to younger squad players and a bit/sub player. He can't last 90 mins but is useful at times.

As for the rest, I'd ask them to tear up their contracts and leave, ship them out on loan to anybody, furlough if we still can, or merely advise them they train with the youth.

Those out of contract I'd resign:-
Clifton
Habergham
Battersby
Hewitt

I would want the likes of Matete and Menayese but I can't see them wanting NL football.

So with these 7(9) it would be up to Hurst, with a decent budget, to ouse words to get his first choice transfer targets to sign for us. Targets being 2/3 decent strikers.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

Otherwise - auf wiedersehen to any legitimate Town fans on this forum.
Hope we can come back from this.

Well, I don't know the specifics except their Investor put in £300k and next thing, they're out of the National League and top of League One. True, it's fizzling out a bit now, but they still have the potential to be a Championship club very soon.



So in short employ a manager to win games and win games regularly

Our Max might not have the quality but he has an excellent work rate as well as versatility. You need that energy in any team.  Hewitt might be tempted to go but I think he's the type of bloke who would want to prove something and help us get back in the league, so he could be persuaded to stay.  Would be great if Meynase stayed too - not sure how long his contract is at Mansfield.

On another thread the happy clappers support Hurst as it was not his fault he could only bring in excrement players. Now on this thread the happy clappers want to keep most of the players. Make your minds up.

Payne is a proven NL goalscorer so I'd get him signed up straight away.
