There's a young striker in the youth from Blackburn Rovers called Fawns.

I liked the look of him in The FA Youth tie against Birmingham.

I understand he was excellent in the youths 8-0 win recently and will be worth keeping an eye on.

I really think all of them will be here next season aside from Ripley. McLaughlin is my only worry, but we have an option and I can see us doing a Baxter with him. i.e. giving him a long-ish contract but with a fairly small buy-out clause for if he's wanted in January.

 

For my reckoning, we'll need a left-footed full-back in case we want a back four, another option in centre-midfield - I think that may end up being O'Neill - and a pacey striker. All those who we'd expect to be gone, will be gone. Hunt won't return and Taylor I'm not so sure.

 

While we could of course start the season with that line-up, and a new keeper, you've got to take into account Shez will have his own players in mind, so even though we've ended the season well you've got to expect a couple of updates on players who we might have thought adequate.

Why will Hunt definitely return? He's not that young and he's not going to get a sniff at Brighton next season now with them going up... may want to find a Championship club but a loan to us wouldn't be the worst outcome for him to prove his worth.

He won't be here. A few weeks into his loan there was talk of him being looked at by far bigger clubs than us.

And this is where we are today (1 February)

1. Connor Ripley (season-long loan from Middlesbrough) - obviously would keep, but next to no chance of happening.
13. Chris Kettings (2017) - release

2. Josh Law (2017 plus option) - release.  Nothing personal it's just that we have so many options at right back.
3. Jamie Reckord (2017) - release
4. Brian Wilson (2017) - keep
5. Anthony Gerrard (2019) - keep
15. George Edmundson (2017) - keep
16. Cameron Dummigan (2018 plus option) - keep
17. Kallum Mantack (2017 plus option) - keep if cheap.
20. Jamie Stott (2017 plus option) - keep

22. Rob Hunt (on loan until the end of the season from Brighton) - keep if possible.

26. Peter Clarke (2019) - keep
32. Dylan King (youth player) - erm...release?

7. Ryan Flynn (2018) - keep if wages aren't massive.  Otherwise I'd transfer list him.
8. Ollie Banks (2018) - keep, Shez seems to have got him ticking.
11. Lee Croft (six-month contract to 5 February) - release
23. Lee Knight (2017 plus option) (out on season-long loan to Ashton United) - see King.
24. Ousmane Fane (or Fané, who knows) (2018 plus option) - keep
27. Ryan McLaughlin (2017 plus option) - keep, give him a longer deal or sell for good money if possible.
28. Paul Green (2017) - keep
34. Chinedu Uche (youth player) - ?

Aiden O'Neill (on loan until the end of the season from Burnley) - not desperately needed.

Tope Obadeyi (2017) - keep

Chris Taylor (on loan until the end of the season from Bolton) - keep but not at all costs.


10. Aaron Amadi-Holloway (2019) - keep
14. Michael Ngoo (2017) - keep if cheap.
18. Darius Osei (2017) - release
19. Lee Erwin (season-long loan from Leeds) - keep if possible.
33. Brendy Glackin (youth player) - I guess he's being released.

Personally would like the squad to look something like this:

 

2x Goalkeepers

 

Dummigan

Mantack (Wilson and Ryan Mc can play RB, or go to three at the back)

 

Wilson

Stott

Edmundson

Gerrard

Clarke

 

1x Left Back

 

Ryan Mc

Lee Knight

 

Fane

Banks

Green

New Signing

 

Taylor

Flynn

 

Erwin

Tope

Holloway

New Signing

 

That leaves us needing five new players as well as resigning Taylor and Erwin.

I'd sign someone in place of Taylor, I don't think he has done enough. Still half a team which is somewhat worrying, but at least we are ahed than we have been for several seasons. Hopefully, we are safe on sat and we can really begin in earnest. I'd hope Shez has a couple of them lined up on the prviso we stay up.
Normally we are still waiting at end of Aug for a couple or 3 and expect it to be the same again eg a 2nd keeper not signed by then would not be the worst problem.
