Players out of contract.

Max Crocombe
James McKeown
Danny Amos
Adam Crookes
Jordan Cropper
Michie Efete
Jaz Goundry
Scott Burgess
Giles Coke
Ben Fox
Evan Khouri
Erico Sousa
Max Wright
Luis Adlard
Lennell John-Lewis
Sean Scannell
Ryan Taylor.

That's a lot of bloody players out of contract.

Also do we try to permanently sign any of the loan players here if possible.

Andy Smith

There are some very difficult decisions which need to be made but it is with regret but if I was Hurst the following players will not be offered contracts

McKeown
Crooks
Goundry
Burgess
Coke
Khouri
Sousa
Wright
Adlard
John -Lewis
Scannell

And of the loanees i would look to re-sign Smith and Raikhy, with my sincere thanks to Abrahams and Mani who have both offered something different for us and have played their part.

I'd want to keep

Max Crocombe
Danny Amos
Jordan Cropper
Michie Efete
Ben Fox
Erico Sousa
Max Wright
Sean Scannell

Plus another year of loan for Smith.

I'd also sign Mani D.  Think there's something in there.  But he'd be back up to a replacement for Taylor.

I think we'll see a lot of players back and the continuity will do us good. Realistically, I'd be happy to keep the majority of this squad together and focus on bringing in only  3 or 4 additions that will improve the team.

So I'd try to keep

Max Crocombe
Danny Amos
Jordan Cropper
Michie Efete
Ben Fox
Erico Sousa
Sean Scannell (this one's a tricky one)
Ryan Taylor

And offer contracts to Mani and Smith

If we managed that, we'd essentially already have a starting 11 without signings that I'd feel confident could hold its own in league 2. And as I said, focus on a few quality signings and we'll be good.

It'll be nice to have stability rather than wholesale changes for once.

Smith has had a taste of first team football and there is no way he wants to be playing U23 football next season. If we could sign him permanently that would be great but if we could get him back in on loan, it would still be a good move for everyone.

I wouldn't be surprised if Coke is retained as a coach.

Crocombe, Amos, Cropper, Efete, Fox, Taylor all need retaining. If we can get Raikhy back and sign Dieseruvwe, we've got a very good starting point in my opinion.

I was thinking about this earlier today and my keep list is also what I think Hurst's will be

Extend
McAtee

Max Crocombe 2 year
Jordan Cropper 2 year
Michie Efete 2 year
Scott Burgess 1 year
Ben Fox 2 year
Ryan Taylor 1 year

Andy Smith 2 years if we can
Tristan Abrahams 1 year
Manuel Dieseruvwe 1 year

I have a feeling that he will loan out Wright, Clifton, Battersby if he can bring in better
