Sat here wondering who will be here next year might be too early to speculate considering the ground situation. But oh well

Burge- Going. Slightly disappointing at times but has been a good servant to the club wish him the best.
O'brien- Going. Been an understudy at every club he has been at
Grimmer- Certainly Going- Shame but not up to high league one standard at the moment.
Sterling- Wants a championship loan so can not see him here next season.
Davies- Not sure, still have a one year extension option. Personally i would keep him for another year.
Willis- I think he will stay if we stay at the Ricoh personally would be a massive loss.
Hyam- Staying no question about that.
Rose- Summer incoming.
Mason- Staying i imagine
Brown- on his way out Mccallum has overtaken him
Kelly- Will stay another year or two maybe
Bayliss- if he jumps ship now he will end up in league two like Stevenson he is not ready for a big move yet.
Meyler- Unsure will likely be released by reading this summer.
Westbrooke- Should be here next year.
Thomas- Possibly be back here i am not sure he is ready for Championship football.
Shipley- Will stay not a bad squad player to have
Hiwula- Must keep
Bright- Contract with Wolves runs out this summer will likely be released hopefully we get him permanently.
Baka- Keep him i think he will come good.
Chaplin- Unsure
Biamou- Keep
Jodi Jones- Risky but keep.
Ponticelli- Unsure about him to be honest.
Anyone i have missed?

Agree with most of those, I think Robins will use Chaplin as a striker next season with Biamou. Little and large.

I think you have mostly said keep this year;;s strike force

for me
Ponti has had his chance = get rid
Baka is not the answer = get rid

Isn't that down to where Robin's plays him when he comes on and how late he puts him on. Not saying hes the answer but hes never been given a 6-8 game run up front in a 2.

Robins said he had a hamstring injury around the time Williams played that match.

Ponticelli hasn’t had a chance, he didnt even get a chance of a loan because of his injury.

He’s just not yet ready for our first team that’s all. Get him a full preseason again and another loan spell

"Bright Enobakhare has been a brilliant signing. Effective in goal scoring but also very creative and added to Luke Thomas and Connor Chaplin stats you have a real threat"

imagine if a poster on here said that !!

Chaplin will come good I’m sure, but I’m not so sure about Baka he doesn’t seem to have enough heart to me and that’s worrying at a new club .

I’d be interested to see if we could pick up Jorge Grant next season. Fits the profile of player we’d be in for and we’ll need a right winger/attacker.

All a little irrelevant as depends on who is appointed as manager and who he fancies as Robins will definitely go if we do not stay at Rioch

don't get this at all. is his stock that high ?.

We had people calling for his head on here not long ago and he's continued the same tactics since then, inc Oxford and Bristol Rovers at home.

who is sniffing around ?

As things stand Robins has established a good reputation
He came into a deeply troubled and divided club as the 4th manager that season
He stabilized things, got a bit of pride and togetherness back and although the club were eventually relegated he took the team to Wembley for a great day out and won a trophy
The following year he took them back to Wembley again and secured promotion on another memorable day
Then back in League 1 where we'd been whipping boys two seasons ago he's kept the side around the play off places all season despite losing his most prolific goal scorer
They'd be plenty of interest in Robins if he was available

If Wilson is sold early in the summer, would love us to go and get Eisa or Doidge.

Any money received from the sale of Wilson will go to the day to day running of the club.

Especially if the ground share happens and only getting 2k for home games.

Crewe U23s away today ! Joking. He needs a pre-season to shed a bit of timber and get match fit. Nearly scored yesterday.

We also have the Ayr centre half Rose, plus the Tranmere centre back Drysdale.

I would lobpve to have Luke Thomas for another year. Still learning his tradeand needs to gain composure. I suspect FL will want him elsewhere just to keep him on his toes and keep him out of his comfort zone. I suppose it depends on the feedback he is getting and whether he is improving at the rate required. He has a great workrate and his defensive duties are terrific.

I would love to have Bright for a year, great talent and a joy to watch (albiet infuriantively)

might be wrong, but i cant think of too many players who were loaned to the same FL team for 2 years running (apart from Richard Duffy)

Maycock might push for a first team spot after his loan

No less relevant if Robins is here or not then as any new manager will inherit his squad when he 'definitely' leaves

Yes but he shouldn't need a pre season to shed timber, he's either fully committed to being a footballer or he isn't
