We will do well to loan out Cashman he has been poor every time he has gone out.

Lusala, Costello, Cashman.

And if any one will take them (as their under contract) I'd look to offload Reid, Moore and Allen.

as it stands 2 recognised defenders. I hope the scouting team have plenty of targets. we need to hit the ground running this window

I'm pretty sure they were aware of the situation that would unfold at the end of the season and have been planning on two potential scenarios depending on the outcome of Saturdays game.

They know what pond to fish in now so I hope they'll be straight on it.

I guess the issue us that we might not have as much money until Gyo is sold (if he goes) - same with Hamer. Hopefully Doug opens his wallet early doors in the hope that it'll get filled up again once one of those 2 go.

There must be a massive gulf in class though as Reid was starting up there and hasn’t had a sniff here.

TBF would the list be much different if we'd of gone up? Maybe Kelly would be gone, but that's about it.

It's based on players out of contract, I can't see it being much different at all.

Shame Rose decided to leave as would have been a decent squad player. Fair play to him for wanting first team football and he’ll be remembered fondly

Liam Kelly has definitely earned a contract offer with the way he stepped up. Let’s be under no illusions that over a 46+ game season, he isn’t a player to take us to the next level.

A one year extension to keep a leadership figure at the club is worthwhile, but if Kelly wants regular first team football elsewhere, I wouldn’t blame him.

I’m excited. Robins spoke of a churn of players needed but more significantly, was optimistic about the quality of players we’d attract - and this was all before the playoffs.

Irrespective of what happens with Gyokeres and Hamer, I really hope we invest more and really try to build excitement this off-season!

we’ve made enough money over the past month with full houses against blues and boro not to mention the gate receipts and season ticket sales to invest ASAP. This will be the challenge for the scouts and actually show how serious Doug king is now. Actions speak louder than words and action is what we need. We need to be proactive

Happy with that. Kelly's played well so let's just hope he stays fit.

We need to get some of those loan players back for sure. Especially Doyle and McNally if we can

The rest gives us alot of opportunity. Midfield is pretty much set but like others have said Palmer and o hare need to stay fit and hamer may be sold so I wouldn't mind buying another.

Everything hinges on the big 2 I guess. If they stay and we sort the other gaps out would be very exciting...

Is there any chance that we’ll go back in for McNally and/or Doyle, who have both been excellent for us. Either another loan, or preferably purchase? Perhaps BNC?

Why do i?

How many games has Josh Reid played for the first team in 3 years?

How many has Fanny Cashman played in 2? He cant even get games at Altrincham ffs.

I'm not the one who's talking shite here you are if you're trying to defend them

based on that, i think bare minimum needed over summer is:

1 x LWB
3 x CB
2 x RWB
1 x ST

Assume we lose Gyok, i think we need another ST

If we lost Hamer we'd need another MF

ideally the money from Gyok will mean we can actually sign some defenders as opposed to all loans but we will see!
Click to expand...
We need more than 1 striker coming in. But Obi my come into the first team as well

I think 4x CB really, especially if we are playing a back three. I am assuming Vik and Gus are off.
1x GK (think Moore will leave. Hopefully we can bring a number 1 in)
2x RB
4x CB (really hope one is McNally)
1x LB
1x CM
3x FWDs (hopefully a Vik replacement, and possibly 2x more versatile forwards who can allow us to change formation when needed)
Click to expand...

Think we need another CM who can understudy the Hamer/Hamer replacement role. Sheaf, Eccles, Kelly are all quite similar in role.

I’d also get an AM in on a loan until Jan just to give O’Hare and Palmer a chance to build up fitness.

Even if we hadn’t I’d want to see a bit of investment even if it meant recouping funds from sales later. He’s said the money is there for the right player and we’ll do better buying then selling than the other way around.

I would have kept Rose just as a backup option who knows the system

Good as Kelly has been the past few games I have my doubts that he can keep it up for another season, and I thought he was supposed to be on quite a decent wage.

Where the bloody hell we going to replace Hamers 12 goals from midfield? Hamers goalscoring stats are better than 95% than of the strikers in the division.
Ohare and Palmer will really have step up.
