In The Shop Window

I don't get the GK situation:
Eastwood - moderate at best (not good enough back up)
Moore - good for the Championship
Blackman - better but not 'that much better that we need to buy him at all costs'.
Is it just me?

 

[Cerberus Blade]

About right that.

Ooh no! Loads of folk on here will be angry that Reed has been released. He was going to come good I was told.

Good luck them all anyhow. Not good enough for where we are going next I’m afraid.

What about Hussey and Wilson? (James). I thought they were still our players?

Reed is not being released and will more than likely sign an extension shortly

I think he's been cautious due to the shambles the owners are making!, there's a full team there, capable of finishing outside the bottom 6, so worse case, we've still got a squad.

 

[Patrick Suffaux]

6/9 are Wilder signings interestingly. Can’t say any surprise me though.

 

[BigBed]

There will be some additions to the squad during the summer. I expect a goalkeeper, a centre back and three strikers to be added

As the current squad is for the moment (am excluding those available for loans/transfers)

Goalkeepers:

Simon Moore
Jake Eastwood


Defenders:

Chris Basham
Kieron Freeman
Daniel Lafferty
Jack O'Connell
Enda Stevens
Jake Wright
George Baldock
Richard Stearman


Midfield:
Ricky Holmes
Paul Coutts
Mark Duffy
John Fleck
John Lundstram
Ryan Leonard
Lee Evans
Regan Slater

Strikers:
Leon Clarke
Ched Evans
Billy Sharp
David Brooks

Polished that a little matey, only due to Brooks partnering Clarke mostly.

In terms of the list posted by Silent Blade above there are 3 players who are just sitting out their contracts with the chance of the odd game next season (Wright, Lafferty and Evans). It would be good if we can move them on and get improvements in their place. Wright and Lafferty would go with my blessing as both have done a good job when asked, Ched was a weird signing and waste of time, cash and effort.

There’s a good base for a squad next season though and with 5 good signings in the right positions (1 GK, 1 CB, 1 CM, 2 CF) across the squad we should progress.

 

[Johnstreet John]

Wilders brought most of them in. Will he admit he got it wrong or blame the players ? Disappointed that at least 3 more aren't on that list .

 

[Harry's Game]

I'd have kept Long based on the reviews but let Eastwood go based on what I'd seen.

Thanks Helen Keller.

no mate. we sometimes form a strange attachment to certain players down at BDTBL

see Brayford, John

 

[Harry's Game]

Wonder what we paid for Carruthers ? something happened there as he has talent and Karl Robinson thought he was superman and creamed himself when he thought he was going to Charlton !

He’s failed twice now at this level with us and MKD. Not up to it unfortunately

 

[zablade]

Surprised Holmes isn’t on the list tbh.

Shakey Jakey not being released either?

 

[zablade]

How is Ched not on the list.

He doesn’t have to sign it anymore the conviction was quashed.

Where does it say that Reed has been released?

 

[GreasyChipBeattie]

I can't imagine Easty is on much so it makes sense to keep him, maybe a loan and see how he develops.

Easty? Easto, surely?
