I think Vernam, Clarke, Wright and Benson don't appear in either list so presumably still under discussion.


Benson was only a loan though (unfortunately).

I think Vernam, Clarke, Wright and Benson don't appear in either list so presumably still under discussion.  If we end up re-signing them, we actually have a pretty decent starting point for a squad - probably the strongest we have had for a while at this stage in the year.

Keepers

James McKeown, Sam Russell, Ollie Battersby,

Defenders

Ludvig Öhman, Luke Waterfall, Mattie Pollock, Luke Hendrie, Elliott Hewitt,

Midfielders

Harry Clifton, Max Wright, Josh Benson, Jock Curran, James Tilley

Forwards

Charles Vernam, James Hanson, Matt Green, Billy Clarke



totally agree, what numbers do we need squad wise, maybe another 3, plus some yoofs stepping up to Pro Ranks?

So basically everyone out of contract without an option has been released.

In normal circumstances I'd have liked to have seen Davis, Hessenthaler and Grandin stay. Not too bothered about the others, although Whitehouse was much improved under IH.

No surprises really. I would guess they all saw it coming.

Hess is a loss especially with Green still taking up wages


I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas

The area you are trying to protect at corners is the goal - Chris Kamara

I know all we could do is tell him he's free to find a new club and we woudln't stand in his way, but we've got to find a way of getting him off the wage bill, because he either doesn't care or just isn't good enough watching him on the pitch

maybe Olly will do that, once he has got Vernam/Wright signed up......maybe he is hedging his bets?
