What are we playing at

[ThatJa]

I think we're the last club in the EFL to release the retained list after the season ended nearly a month ago, even though they had to be submitted to the EFL 3 Saturdays ago.

What's the hold up? Are we having last minute thoughts on some players?

Surely this has no benefit to those leaving as its stopping them signing elsewhere?

If only there was a thread called, oh, I dunno, "Retained List"...

Why do you expect the club to release such a list ? Their only obligation is to give it to the EFL/EPL.
Why the morbid attraction to see who has lost their jobs ?

We are slow though.......only TEN weeks to start of season.

Jeez, this thread has all the hallmarks of the attitudinal issues that personify generation z “what, the world may end in 3 billion years, why haven’t we been told how to plan for it?,,,,,,”

 

[Houston_Blade]

Is it worse that we don’t know which players we’re keeping/releasing or that we don’t know which variation of red and white shirt we’re playing in?!

I’m torn.

 

[SouthEssexBlade]

I presume the players know. I also presume Hecky and the management team know. Job done.

There's a lot to be said for keeping people in suspenders.

 

[Dkc]

We demand the retain list, and we demand it now!

Car park demo anyone?

 

[BornOnShorehamStreet]

The reason it hasn't been made public is because it's a retained list ... i.e., it's been retained

It could be a cunning plan so that Arsenal,Man City,Man U and Chelsea don't know exactly who they'll be facing next season,brilliant.

I sometimes wear suspenders but only in the really cold winter months and only under my dungarees. Whereas I always wear a bra . There - I’ve said it - can I swim against women now ?

 

[Bill puntin]

We are trying to get billy to sign a new 3year deal

 

[Brownieblade]

It’s because we aren’t actually going to be a prem team, the rest of the league has got together and decided to replace us with Wednesday because the pigs can take 60 thousand to any stadium and 2 million, at the drop of the hat, to any Greggs and primark in their city centre

We were done when Deadpool and the other guy joined with the big leagues in Europe mocking the prem for not having the massive in top league

So yeh now it’s a case of the prem sorting out compo with the players regarding bonuses before they all try and sign for the massive

Let’s hope the shirts aren’t

Only 3 years? Give him 5 years at least.

Hi Stegosaurus here

The potless prince is checking behind his seatee for loose change first. Doesn't want to release anyone in case he can't scrounge the cash together to buy a new player.

 

[s20Blade]

I think wilder blew the contract renewal machine up when he got a new won every 3 games.

You need to upgrade to those "Hold up"thigh high types of stockings as there is less drag when swimming in water ..........so I've been told .........

It's just that time of the year, end of season threads like these are bound to pop up.
People want something to discuss or argue about on the forums and when there is no football on, people just have to find something!!

 

[Mumbo]

Keep the retained list top secret
Them thats vexed by it can indulge in player spotting next season.
One of the ground staff looks just like Chris Wilder
Just saying.

Absolutely and feel free to use the changing room and showers too.
