Eddie Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Would think getting wheater signed is number 1 on list He seemed pretty certain on Sunday that he'd be here next season (before he was too leathered). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted May 2, 2017 Site Supporter Share Posted May 2, 2017 Parky has earned the right to have a good crack next season. I too have some doubts, but he's ducked and dived well this season, and we'll probably need to do so again so keep him. The comments from some of the players suggests he's a good man manager/motivator, and to get rid would be counterproductive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The comments from some of the players suggests he's a good man manager/motivator, and to get rid would be counterproductive. Indeed. By that previous argument we should have sacked Allardyce when he got us up, for someone with top flight experience.....we have a good manager at last, can't we just let him get on with it?

passmosster Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Or Burnley should have sacked Sean Dyche. Surprised Parky not coming up to scratch is even mentioned. Think that we will try to keep most of the current first team. Big lad up front e.g. Taylor from Wimbledon is the most likely addition. Can't see us selling Amos or Wilkinson. Hope that we can keep a few of David Lee's Under 23s including Lavelle, Perry and King. Both Turner and young Will are pretty decent prospects in goal.

birch-chorley Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Not a bad shout, Coyle as director of football in charge of all the signings with Parky doing the day to day stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Ratwhite Posted May 2, 2017 Site Supporter Share Posted May 2, 2017 Fucking hell, some of the posts are almost moon-man like.. Two days after our best season in fuck knows how long ends and we're talking change of Manager, players. To be honest, im just glad its over, the stress of the last few weeks was fucking killing me. KA seems to have this in hand, we needed to get up so he can move his plan along, fuck off Blue-Waffle, hopefully bring in some investment and let him, LA, and PP sort the team/signings. Happy Summer folks... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoldensHairdo Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 (edited) In Contract: Mark Howard Ben Amos Ben Alnwick Josh Vela Derik Osede Connor Wilkinson Mark Beevers Chris Taylor Jamie Proctor Darren Pratley Contracts Expiring: Lewis Buxton Dean Moxey Dorian Dervite Jay Spearing Jem Karacan Gary Madine Mark Davies Liam Trotter Max Clayton Filipe Morais Lawrie Wilson Reece Wabara David Wheater Tom Walker Loans Expiring Viv Solomon-Otabor Chris Long James Henry Tom Thorpe Adam Le Fondre Andy Taylor Bold ones are my retainees... and I think if we were to start day 1 of the championship with Sunday's starting XI I wouldnt be overly disappointed. More than enough quality to compete... Ameobi would be on my shopping list, and a cheeky loan move for Holding (& Clough if forest drop) Edited May 2, 2017 by HoldensHairdo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Zico Posted May 2, 2017 Moderators Share Posted May 2, 2017 Best news of summer will be coming out of the embargo. to be fair it doesn't seem to have held us back in terms of signings: Alnwick Howard Buxton Beevers Taylor Wabara Karacan Otabor Morais Henry Thorpe Long ALF Taylor Proctor Ameobi Anderson and given we couldn't pay wages some months and had the boardroom stand off, even without an embargo, would we have spent any money on fees, particulary when we've got 2 agents running the club?

Eavesy Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Best news of summer will be coming out of the embargo. I'd be delighted if the embargo stayed in place. We seem to be able to sign who we want, when we want, but within a numbers policy. 25 limit, one in one out I believe? Our squad is already huge as it is. And that's under an embargo.

Duck Egg Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Seen Kyle Lafferty has been released by Norwich. Very good on his day. Yeah spotted that but a year too late in my eyes. Not for me next season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoberDan Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Keep the base of this team Wheater Beevers Taylor Spearing. Need to potentially look for replacements for the rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoberDan Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Lafferty could be worth a punt on a one year deal but lets try to get Le Fondre first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frank_spencer Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 The defence has been our strength all season even before the switch to 5 at the back brought on by Buxton and Wilson getting injured, to me that means keeping them should be the priority. Moxey can go but we need to keep the rest if possible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whites man Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Odds on the team that starts in August will look very different to one that ends the season. We have lost 2 of our 3 homegrown prospects so I just hope we don't get a tempting offer for Vela. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulhanley Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Of the out of contract players I'd definitely love us to keep Wheater, Andrew Taylor, and Morais. As cruel as it sounds I'm much less bothered about Spearing and Madine. They have been great this season but ... Madine doesn't strike me as Championship standard at all and I think we could get better than Spearing for the money he's likely to want. Fair play to the lad if he takes a big drop in salary. I hope we get Jem Karacan as well. Very, very impressed. Exudes Championship quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
