    Ricardo, Luke O'Neill, Ashley Chambers, Robert Ambrusics, Nathan Hicks, Jorrin John, Craig King, Aman Verma, Ben Milnes and Adi Yussef have all been released.

    Tunchev has basically been offered a trial to prove his fitness before we offer him a new deal. Hope the lad gets fit as i think if he has another set back he will end up going down the same road as Stephen Clemence and will end up retiring.

    Now with the prem ending tommorow we can expect some new players coming in next week according to Sven

    Presume they think Brentford might be interested in a bid for Neilson after his successful(ish) loan spell? I'd say that was (just about) his level.

    As for the others, I'd presume they have a year or more left on their contracts, and Sven doesn't want to waste any money buying out their contracts. Either that, or he thinks he might be able to actually get some cash for at least some of them (Kennedy back to Rochdale for a fraction of the price we paid for him?). The final possibility is that he thinks some (or all) of them will be useful squad players next season, in case of an injury crisis. I'd always like to have someone like Moreno, for example, who is comfortable playing in several different positions, even if the quality isn't quite there.

    You're right though, I expect most, if not all of the players mentioned above, will at the very least be shipped out on loan, or be transfer listed and sold to lower-league clubs.

    Wow... just read the story myself. Incredibly surprised. He's not a Prem player. The move doesn't really make sense, for either party... obviously aside from the financial aspect for Yuki. Will be interesting to see what comes of this rumour.

    True, yet they're still selling the naming rights for their stadium. The root of all evil and all that...
