Interest in players at the end of the season

Quoted from jamesgtfc

Swindon were looking at Efete the other week but like you say, I don't think he will be as coveted as Magnay and Tait.

I think Efete is decent but he has had moments of inconsistency plus the injury, Magnay and Tait were ever present and in truth, didn’t put a foot wrong really, even in their short time here.

As you say, he’d be the only one I’d imagine could generate some interest, especially from football league teams.

I think the player who are out of contract will already have their agents trying to scope out their future, I would expect that they will want to have some options at the end of their current deals. Let’s not kid ourselves that they’ll all have their hearts set on a new deal at Town.

Agreed, when it’s your club you think folk would sign Becauee they look at the club like you. Times are changing though, under the old regime it’s clear that we weren’t highly thought of and whilst players wanted to play for hurst, it was more about playing for PH and possibly the fans than the actual club. You’re hard pushed to find anyone say something positive about the club and how it operated.

That’s slowly changing so it could help. We have to be realistic though, if we don’t go up, we’ll be a conference club, we’re not Wrexham or Stockport spending money like it’s growing on a tree and we’re out on a limb.

I worked with Terry Fleming a few years ago, his lad was released from Villa, was offered a mad contract at Salford when they were non league or a lesser contract at Cheltenham, playing in the league…he took Cheltenham. It’s easier to get a league club when you’re playing at one already…this will naturally be the mindset of many a player at our level.

From what I’ve heard, we’ve offered Danny Rose a deal for a contract after his loan ends.

well he's hardly likely to have many other options!

I wouldn’t be surprised to see Efete move on, done/doing a decent job for us, more offensively than defensively. Room for improvement - ideal for clubs looking to buy someone, bound  to have clubs looking at him.

I’d imagine he’s in our managers plans though moving forward, and he’d be looking to improve him defensively.

I think Hurst said recently that we have an option Efete so I'm guessing the club will take that option up first.

It's odds on we will still be non league, and as such will need to pay better saleries to players we are hoping to keep.
Hursty will have offers and may get itchy feet again, in this league it's all about success, failing that it's anybody's guess what the future holds

Not a chance Hurst goes anywhere. (Imho)
