I'm confused...this isn't new information? 09:56 - May 13 with 1547 viewsSwailsey

Phil had been saying for weeks now that he had heard only 4 or 5 players were in PC's plans for next season. That seems to stack up with what is being said today.

I'm not saying I agree with this 100%, but it isn't groundbreaking news is it?

I think people are a little shocked over which players are missing out from that 4 or 5.

Good Lord! Whatever is it?

AND which players are (reportedly) included in that 4 or 5.

No I get that. But there's a lot of talk of ripping the insides from the club etc.

If realistically it was always known only say 5 maximum would be kept, its inevitable that a lot of those culled would be youths surely?

Almost always dead certs to stay:

KVY
Norwood
Downes

Downes by all accounts wants out, so that's only 2 spots left for everyone else.

Downes can go if we are offered big money

I don't think we will be though and we would need a very good replacement!

Alcohol is the answer but I can't remember the question!

What constitutes "big money"? We turned down ~£1.5m before he had an ineffective, injury-laden season in League One

This is something Mick used to get right (that I disagreed with at the time but in hindsight he was 100% right).....in that there is simply no point keeping players who don't want to be here. It is toxic and rarely works. As financially painful as it is, we just need to accept the realities and move on.

Letting them leave doesn't work out terribly well either though does it? Exhibit A: Murphy/Best.

I think what might be catching us unawares by and large is, for example, the retained faith in an underachieving late-career striker with disciplinary problems and the appointment of a career-long underachieving striker with disciplinary problems as coach, whilst (admittedly currently-underachieving) young players get shown the door. It's an odd direction of travel.

Indeed, I'm glad someone reads what I write! I didn't make too much of a big thing about in-contract players being told they could go on Monday as I thought it was expected. In hindsight I probably should have written a separate story and mentioned a few names. Too much has been happening!

I'm not sure it's a set list, to be honest. I think there's an expectation that some of those here will still be here, not much more than that. Obviously some will be 'more available', so to speak, than others.
