Agree - and Rose only earned a new deal in last few weeks in my view. 6 weeks ago I would have released him too. But he's been excellent lately.

I think Dabo will get back to his old self and we'll offer him a new contract.
I'd bin everyone else bar Fadz and Rose.

Fadz and Rose that's it Fadz been injured so maybe a risk but only 1 year deals each.

Taking McFadz age into consideration, none of that lot are rock solid first teamers so on that basis all of them

I agree and would also look to get Godden off the books as well. Dabo is one of my favourite players but I just don’t think he’s good enough for where we’re looking to get to.

Probably worth keeping Wilson as no2 (if we can get rid of Moore for a fee)

There will be others in the reserves as well like Reid, it will be a summer if change hopefully we have the money to bring in better than that lot. I would keep Rose and bin the rest.

No because he might have this mad idea of making him number one again.

I know you really don't like him but we've got to within touching distance of the playoffs with him as number 1 so he'd be fine as a cheap no2.

We can't afford to have two top keepers.

I suppose the problem is, assuming the budget stays around the same, it’s 10 players out for probably three or four established championship players in pounds and pence. Need a squad so I imagine Dabo, Fadz, Rose and Wilson likely gets deals.

If Doug Dinsah does buy the club and injects millions then obviously the landscape changes and you can almost start again.

Time for one of the two reserve keepers, Billson or Tyler to step up both in their twenty’s now or that’s two more added to the list.

Is he?

Id argue that since midway through first season back in this league hes been pretty average at best and injury prone

I genuinely wouldn't mind if he went. Burroughs shows a lot more promise in that position and Dabos pushing 30 now

With Kane almost certain to go we really need 2 players for that position so don't see it as a choice between him and Burroughs but rather keep them both.

I am discounting Eccles for that position as I see him as a midfielder.

Just Rose.

Dabo looked a shell of the player since his multiple injuries & age catching up on Fadz.

The rest just not good enough if we want to push forward.

Dabo has not had a consistently decent spell since the league 1 title campaign

He was constantly picked out as one of our best players by the opposition in our first season back.

All League 1 players. Which is where we might be when the takeover fails, Robins leaves and we sell Gyokores.

I'd keep.

Rose - 2/3 year deal.
Fadz - 1 year deal
Dabo - 2 year deal (Yes he is injury prone, but is an asset and with Burroughs emerging we have adequate competition)
Wilson - 2 Year deal - Based on the condition he will be a No 2, and we bring in a No 1, and sell Moore.

I am sure they will try and ship out Kane & Waghorn in January as we may get a small transfer fee. Bapaga seems to have stalled, but is still only 20. Maybe a 1 year deal.

I wouldn't keep Dabo unless it was as a backup player at very most to be honest, but maybe that was what you meant.

Rose, Fadz and Dabo, however the back line needs strengthening in quality and depth. We have lost Hyam. Panzo and Doyle will return to their parent clubs. Robins has highlighted there isnt much coming through the age groups currently. We currently need 2 or 3 new Cb's, a right back better than Dabo, who remains as back up, another left back also.
