    In my opinion i don't think that many player will leave us this summer. I think that Nigel is going to be giving them a chance in the Premier League as they have worked so hard for it. Players like Chaplow, De Ridder, Hammond, Richardson, Guly, Martin ect. we may think are not good enough for the Premier League but i think that Nigel will give them their chance in the spotlight of the Premier League.

    I have just been browsing the transfer rumours thread and saw a rumour about us signing two burnley players with cash + chaplow. I don't think that we will see any players leaving.

    The only player that i can see leaving are:

    Danny Butterfield - Possibly, but might be kept as a Player/coach
    Jaidi - Getting old, retiring maybe.
    Forecast
    Possibly Puncheon.
    And then maybe some younger players going out on loan.

    I can see us making a few signing, 4 or 5, but only to add the squad and improve the depth and quality. As nigel has said he only want to sign a few. I mean you just have to look at Norwich and Swansea. All for those of you on twitter the chemistry in the group seems second to none and they all seem to get along extremely well.

    I would be surprised if Holmes, Forte and Dickson are still on the bus. I can see several others going but could be 50/50 - Connolly, Barnard, Puncheon possibly De Ridder.
    Jaidi will retire. Think that's about it...Oh Doble will probably go and there's probably some other youngsters.

    Don't think it will be announced for a week or so yet though...but we shall see.

    Why would we sell him? He is loving life with the squad? He is playing in the premier league? He has just had the best season of his career.

    Yeah i can see those going as well as they haven't been part of the promotion. where the first team player who have played league games this year i can't see any of them leaving.

    No he won't. He is one of our players that actually has prem experience and can play all across the midfield. This season, without him, we've been half the team we've been with him. He brings so much to the table, just not ability on the ball.

    I'm pretty sure when we started the season, beating Leeds on the opening day, for example, Chaplow didn't feature.

    I dont think that he will be sold - and i hope that he stays, starts the season fit and proves you wrong.

    I hope so too, but doubt it severely.

    I think it just depends on the players themselves and what offers come in? Nigel will know what players he will want in his squad & who are good enough for the premier league. There is no time sentiment he sole aim is for premiership survival and then push on to the top 10.

    Connolly will go, Barnard will go, Seabourne will go, Dickson will go, Jaidi will retire, I think Harding should go but I don't think that will happen, Holmes will go, Forte will go. Not sure about Puncheon, he could do a job for us if he wants to. Some may go out on loan, others will be sold.

    Agreed - a fully fit Chappers is Premier quality, and we`ll need his energy in midfield when we mix it with the best.

    His previous stint at WBA suggests otherwise.

    A bit like your Chaplow hatred to be honest.
