Surely it's a very weakened team? That is really bad.

Couple of ok crosses, but rarely tried to take on his man. Always passes back. Be a decent player in the gibraltar league

We may have to, reluctantly, accept a multi-million pound bid for him now.

Maybe this will have Swansea and Cardiff thinking he’s alright, and thus, enter into an almighty and unnecessary scramble for his signature.

Hopefully this transpires.

Quite ironic that Todd Kane ended up in the Gibraltar league after you said he was better than Norton-Cuffy.

Well some thought we should have retained Biamou and not Gyokeres.

Such is life and some thought the new Welsh wizard was better than Jake Bidwell - which really is embarrassing.

I am not embarrassed to say that Dasilva was better than Bidwell at the start of the season. He was also far better than Bidwell when he came on against Manchester United and in some other matches.

He really wasn't - but you rate him - I along with may others think he is rubbish.

Christ they drew with Gibraltar, that should be an automatic sacking for the manager.

We can’t keep basing judging players on their cameos vs Man Utd.

They are either capable all season long or they aren’t.

Bidwell for me has performed ‘most’ of the times consistently this season for us, JDS hasn’t.

If we can get offers to take fringe players off our hands like Tavares, JDS, Allen etc they should be considered. Even if the offers are for £0 it gets them off the wage bill

And how do we replace these fringe players if we just let anyone who isn't a nailed on first teamer go for free?

We've already got a squad that's far too small as it is so getting rid of everyone who only players a bit part for one or two who may or may not be better is only going to make that worse.

If we can upgrade on them, brilliant, but i don't see the sense, either financially or on the field, for just letting anyone slightly below the level we're aiming at go for free.

By signing players who are out of contract who are better than what we have got.
The likes of McCallum, Browne and Dolan are all replacements for those three positions and don’t cost a fee

Correct, however because he is under 24 they would have a compensation however he is just one example. There are players out there going on free transfers who are better than what we’ve got. If we are willing to bring in a player for free we should also should let players go for free if they are deemed surplus to requirements and someone we are unlikely to get a bid for.
JDS didn’t cost us anything to sign in the first place and Tavares was a very low fee
