I'm getting more concerned with Adkins interviews (they're fighting for contracts) that we are getting the blow softened for us failing to grasp the nettle and release all the out of contract shit in the summer. I am dreading hearing we've resigned them on reduced terms.

There is a fundamental reason we are stuck here - most of the squad are failures they have proved it time and again.

I hope and pray come May wherever we finish Adkins fucks em off.

This is what I have been saying for months, anyone expecting a wholesale clearout and a brand new side next season is going to be sorely disappointed, there is no way this board is going sanction that sort of outlay.

The likes of Maceverly and Collins are going to be offered extensions on less money.

Yeah I also fear the worst like yourself and LS26BLADE

We have to take this opportunity to freshen up this squad and change the mentality. You have to change the mindset where mediocrity is acceptable because of the characters which allow this. There is clearly an element of self preservation in the squad. Summer will be a big test for many at the club.
 
The only out of contract player I would extend is George Long. The rest can, and should, go.

Yeah sorry I didn't realise he was out of contract and agree with you on this. Knowing us though we'll keep the rest and let him go.

He'll keep McEveley (even if we manage to scrape promotion through the playoffs) because, and surely this is obvious by now, he really rates him as a captain and a player. And to be fair, he has been one of the best performers recently.
I think Collins and many of the others will go though. Adkins has been quite ruthless with the youngsters who have been allowed to leave, plus McNulty and the others sent out on loan, and I think he will be ruthless with most of the squad – but not McEveley.
 
The interview is worrying

I can see us starting day one next season thus..

Long

New RB. Basham. Collins. Maceverly

New RW. Reed. Hammond. Woolford

........... New Cf. Sharp.

Probably accept an offer for Bryford bring in a replacement and new winger and centre forward.

That wouldn't be enough.

No new RW. That will be Coutts, who was given a 2 and half year contract despite the fact he can't run.

Say your right, but would you have any confidence in the board providing the backing for quality replacements, we could get rid of all those you say (which we should) and probably finish up signing even worse.

I think Adkins fully understands his squad now, who is not up to it, in this league and capable of stepping up if we go up, and i think we will see a far different squad and match day 11 next season where ever we are.

If any of these wasters get new contracts or extensions I'll be taking the scissors to my season card.
While I may not go to the extreme and cut my season ticket up, I agree that the players you have listed do not deserve a contract extension and need to be left behind.

On the evidence of today we should be clearing out the whole sorry lot and starting again.
