The team needs stability through pre season, the number of departures will be high as it is. Players like Smallwood have earnt a chance to stay here. We know he can turn up against the top sides as he has done this season good option off the bench too to see out a game if we are leading.

Cannon, Moncur, Walsh, Hudds all be leaving so we need to have some continuity.
Yes but I don't think their absence will cause much loss of continuity, Hudds excepted maybe.
Also Moncur's got another year on his contract I think, we could be stuck with him.

True, just think this current never say die dressing room atmosphere is a good foundation for these players to come into and buy into, these lads run through brick walls for each other. You are right about those named though they won’t particularly be missed
 
£22 is fair for those who don't want to commit. We can't just keep giving it away for £2 etc. If fans want the new regime to commit then our fans should do the same and get to the games.

People keep saying this but it doesn't make any sense. The people who want to see money spent are already fans. The people who don't go yet are unlikely to care whether money is spent. You're essentially telling people who already go to stop hoping that the club should do anything to get more people going because those people should just come anyway. Seems to be a really popular view at the moment but I don't get it at all.
 
But we'll have continuity. Ideally 8/9/10 of those who started today will still be here in July. It's not like we're completely ripping the side and starting again. The squad as a whole needs a big overhaul but that's largely due to us having zero depth or anything on the bench
Jesus I really hope not or we won’t be going any further next season.
 
Ever since this thread started this song's been like an earworm...

Now that we know we will be a Championship club next year, I assume we can start negotiating contracts for current squad players. Difficult to guess incoming when we don't know who is staying.

Smallwood and Honeyman probably the only ones who deserve renewing. In the case of Honeyman, an extra 2-3 years. In the case of Smallwood, just taking up the option of the extra year.

I’d have liked to see Wilks given a chance under Shota but his injuries have hampered that. Expect him to go in the summer.
